.SH DESCRIPTION
.ft R
MPI_Comm_create_errhandler creates an error handler that can be attached to communicators. This function is identical to MPI_Errhandler_create, the use of which is deprecated. 
.sp
In C, the user routine should be a function of type MPI_Comm_errhandler_fn, which is defined as 
.sp
.nf
    typedef void MPI_Comm_errhandler_fn(MPI_Comm *, int *, \&...); 
.fi
.sp
The first argument is the communicator in use. The second is the error code
to be returned by the MPI routine that raised the error. This typedef replaces MPI_Handler_function, the use of which is deprecated. 
.sp
In Fortran, the user routine should be of this form:
.sp
.nf
    SUBROUTINE COMM_ERRHANDLER_FN(COMM, ERROR_CODE, \&...)
        INTEGER COMM, ERROR_CODE
.fi
.sp
In C++, the user routine should be of this form:
.sp
.nf
    typedef void MPI::Comm::Errhandler_fn(MPI_Comm &, int *, \&...); 
.fi

.SH ERRORS
Almost all MPI routines return an error value; C routines as the value of the function and Fortran routines in the last argument. C++ functions do not return errors. If the default error handler is set to MPI::ERRORS_THROW_EXCEPTIONS, then on error the C++ exception mechanism will be used to throw an MPI:Exception object.
.sp
Before the error value is returned, the current MPI error handler is
called. By default, this error handler aborts the MPI job, except for I/O function errors. The error handler may be changed with MPI_Comm_set_errhandler; the predefined error handler MPI_ERRORS_RETURN may be used to cause error values to be returned. Note that MPI does not guarantee that an MPI program can continue past an error.
