NAME

pmiErrStr , pmiErrStr_r - convert a LOGIMPORT error code into a string

C SYNOPSIS

#include <pcp/pmapi.h>
#include <pcp/import.h>

const char *pmiErrStr(int code );
char *pmiErrStr_r(int
code , char buf , int buflen );

Perl SYNOPSIS

use PCP::LogImport;

pmiErrStr($ code );

DESCRIPTION

As part of the Performance Co-Pilot Log Import API (see LOGIMPORT (3)), pmiErrStr translates error codes returned from the other routines in the Log Import library into printable error messages.

code would normally have a negative value. As a special case, if code is -1 then the error code returned from the last routine called in the LOGIMPORT library for this context will be used.

The pmiErrStr_r function does the same, but stores the result in a user-supplied buffer buf of length buflen , which should have room for at least PMI_MAXERRMSGLEN bytes.

The set of possible error codes and messages is all those defined by pmErrStr (3) and PCPIntro (3), plus the additional ones defined in <pcp/import.h> with error code names of the form PMI_ERR_....
