     MPI_Comm_free - Marks the communicator object for deallocation

SYNOPSIS
     C:

          #include <mpi.h>

          int MPI_Comm_free ( comm )
          MPI_Comm *comm;


     C++:

          #include <mpi.h>

          void Comm::Free()


     Fortran:

          INCLUDE "mpif.h" (or USE MPI)

     Standard.

DESCRIPTION
     The MPI_Comm_free routine marks the communicator object for deallocation.
     This routine accepts the following parameter:

     comm      Specifies the communicator to be destroyed (handle)

     ierror    Specifies the return code value for successful completion,
               which is in MPI_SUCCESS.  MPI_SUCCESS is defined in the mpif.h
               file.
