NAME

t_strerror() − produce an error message string

SYNOPSIS

#include <xti.h> (for X/OPEN Transport Interface - XTI)

int *t_strerror (errnum)
int errnum;
struct info *info;

DESCRIPTION

The t_strerror() function maps the error number in errnum that corresponds to an XTI error to a language-dependent error message string and returns a pointer to the string.  The string pointed to will not be modified by the program, but may be overwritten by a subsequent call to the t_strerror() function.  The string is not terminated by a newline character.  The language for error message strings written by t_strerror() is implementation-defined.  If it is English, the error message string describing the value in t_errno is identical to the comments following the t_errno defined in <xti.h>.  If an error code is unknown, and the language is English, t_strerror() returns the string:

     "<error>: error unknown"

where <error> is the error number supplied as input.  In other languages, an equivalent text is provided. 

Valid Status

All - apart from T_UNINIT

RETURN VALUE

The function t_strerror() returns a pointer to the generated message string.
