key: Key (string).
value: Value (string).

IERROR: Fortran only: Error status (integer).

17.2.228.5. DESCRIPTION

MPI_Info_set adds the (key,value) pair to info and overrides the value if a value for the same key was previously set. The key and value parameters are null-terminated strings in C. In Fortran, leading and trailing spaces in key and value are stripped. If either key or value is larger than the allowed maximums, the error MPI_ERR_INFO_KEY or MPI_ERR_INFO_VALUE is raised, respectively.

17.2.228.6. ERRORS

Almost all MPI routines return an error value; C routines as the value of the function and Fortran routines in the last argument.

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.
