NAME

       PAPI_remove_named_event -

       removes a named hardware event from a PAPI event set.

SYNOPSIS

Detailed Description

       A hardware event can be either a PAPI Preset or a native hardware event code. For a list
       of PAPI preset events, see PAPI_presets or run the papi_avail utility in the PAPI
       distribution. PAPI Presets can be passed to PAPI_query_event to see if they exist on the
       underlying architecture. For a list of native events available on the current platform,
       run papi_native_avail in the PAPI distribution.

       C Interface:
           #include <papi.h>
            int PAPI_remove_named_event( int  EventSet, const char *EventName );

       Parameters:
           EventSet -- an integer handle for a PAPI event set as created by PAPI_create_eventset
           EventName -- a defined event such as PAPI_TOT_INS or a native event.

       Return values:
           PAPI_OK Everything worked.
           PAPI_EINVAL One or more of the arguments is invalid.
           PAPI_ENOINIT The PAPI library has not been initialized.
           PAPI_ENOEVST The EventSet specified does not exist.
           PAPI_EISRUN The EventSet is currently counting events.
           PAPI_ECNFLCT The underlying counter hardware can not count this event and other events
           in the EventSet simultaneously.
           PAPI_ENOEVNT The PAPI preset is not available on the underlying hardware.

       Example:

           char EventName = "PAPI_TOT_INS";
           int EventSet = PAPI_NULL;
           int ret;

           // Create an empty EventSet
           ret = PAPI_create_eventset(&EventSet);
           if (ret != PAPI_OK) handle_error(ret);

           // Add Total Instructions Executed to our EventSet
           ret = PAPI_add_named_event(EventSet, EventName);
           if (ret != PAPI_OK) handle_error(ret);

           // Start counting
           ret = PAPI_start(EventSet);
           if (ret != PAPI_OK) handle_error(ret);

           // Stop counting, ignore values
           ret = PAPI_stop(EventSet, NULL);
           if (ret != PAPI_OK) handle_error(ret);

           // Remove event
           ret = PAPI_remove_named_event(EventSet, EventName);
           if (ret != PAPI_OK) handle_error(ret);
