.SH DESCRIPTION
|
||
|
|
.B im_error(3)
|
||
|
|
formats its arguments as printf and appends the string, with a newline, to
|
||
|
|
the error buffer. The
|
||
|
|
.B domain
|
||
|
|
argument indicates the error source and should not be marked for translation.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
For example, the call:
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
im_error( "mystuff", _( "bad argument %d" ), a );
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
might appear in the error buffer as:
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
mystuff: bad argument 12
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
.B im_verror(3)
|
||
|
|
works exactly as
|
||
|
|
.B im_error(3)
|
||
|
|
but takes stdarg arguments.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
.B im_error_system(3)
|
||
|
|
works exactly as
|
||
|
|
.B im_error(3)
|
||
|
|
but additionally will translate and append a system error code.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
.B im_error_buffer(3)
|
||
|
|
returns a pointer to the start of the error buffer.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
.B im_error_clear(3)
|
||
|
|
empties the error buffer.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
.B error_exit(3)
|
||
|
|
formats its arguments as printf and sends the result to the error output,
|
||
|
|
together with the contents of the error log, before terminating with an error
|
||
|
|
status.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
.B im_warn(3)
|
||
|
|
works as
|
||
|
|
.B im_error(),
|
||
|
|
but output is sent to the list of warnings.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
If an environment variable IM_WARNING exists, messages are suppressed.
|
||
|
|
Warnings should be used for non-critical recoverable errors such as values
|
||
|
|
being clipped.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
.B im_diag(3)
|
||
|
|
works as
|
||
|
|
.B im_error(),
|
||
|
|
but output is sent to the list of diagnosic errors.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
If an environment variable IM_DIAGNOSTICS exists, messages are suppressed.
|
||
|
|
Diagnostics should be used to give extra feedback about the result of the
|
||
|
|
operation.
