error_code

Gets the code corresponding to the error message from the last function called.

Synopsis

#include <imsls.h>

long imsls_error_code ( )

Return Value

This function returns the error message code from the last function called. The include file imsls.h defines a name for each error code.

Example

In this example, stopping on IMSLS_TERMINAL error messages is turned off and an error is then generated by calling function imsls_error_options with an illegal value for IMSLS_SET_PRINT. The error message code number is then retrieved and printed. In imsls.h, IMSLS_INTEGER_OUT_OF_RANGE is defined to be 132.

 

#include <imsls.h>

#include <stdio.h>

 

int main()

{

long code;

/* Turn off stopping IMSLS_TERMINAL */

/* messages and print error messages */

/* on standard output */

imsls_error_options(IMSLS_SET_STOP, IMSLS_TERMINAL, 0,

IMSLS_SET_ERROR_FILE, stdout,

0);

/* Call imsls_error_options() with */

/* an illegal value */

imsls_error_options(IMSLS_SET_PRINT, 100, 0,

0);

/* Get the error message code */

code = imsls_error_code();

printf("error code = %d\n", code);

}

Output

 

*** TERMINAL error from imsls_error_options. "type" must be between 1 and

*** 5, but "type" = 100.

 

error code = 132
