NAME

lc_geterrno - Retrieve a numeric error code.

 

SYNOPSIS

#include <libconfig.h>

lc_err_t lc_geterrno(void);

 

DESCRIPTION

The lc_geterrno(3) function returns the last numeric error code set as an lc_err_t which is an enumerated type and can be cast to any integer type.

The lc_err_t type specifies the following defined values:

LC_ERR_NONE

No error was found. Success.

LC_ERR_INVCMD

A command was specified for which there was no handler.

LC_ERR_INVSECTION

A section was specified for which there was no handler.

LC_ERR_INVDATA

A value that does not make sense was specified, such as a non-existant type to the lc_process_file(3) function.

LC_ERR_BADFORMAT

An invalid format was detected, such as no argument where on was expected, or a value passed to a boolean-specified variable whose value was not one of: enable, true, yes, on, y, 1, disable, false, off, no, n, 0.

LC_ERR_CANTOPEN

Unable to open a specified file.

LC_ERR_CALLBACK

A callback function returned an error (LC_CBRET_ERROR).

LC_ERR_ENOMEM

Memory could not be allocated for internal structures.

 

EXAMPLE

#include <libconfig.h>
#include <stdlib.h>
#include <stdio.h>
int main(int argc, char **argv) {
        int lc_p_ret, lc_rv_ret;
        char *filename = NULL;
        lc_rv_ret = lc_register_var("File", LC_VAR_STRING,
                                    &filename, 'f');
        if (lc_rv_ret != 0) {
                fprintf(stderr, "Error registering variable: %i.\n",
                        lc_geterrno());
                return(EXIT_FAILURE);
        }
        lc_p_ret = lc_process(argc, argv, "example", LC_CONF_APACHE,
                              NULL);
        lc_cleanup();
        if (lc_p_ret != 0) {
                fprintf(stderr, "Error processing configuration: \
                        %s\n", lc_geterrstr());
                return(EXIT_FAILURE);
        }
        if (filename != NULL) {
                printf("File specified was: %s\n", filename);
        } else {
                printf("No filename specified.\n");
        }
        return(EXIT_SUCCESS);
}
