void virErrorFunc (void * userData,
virErrorPtr error)
Signature of a function to use when there is an error raised by the library.
userData: | user provided data for the error callback |
error: | the error being raised. |
int virConnCopyLastError (virConnectPtr conn,
virErrorPtr to)
Copy the content of the last error caught on that connection One will need to free the result with virResetError()
conn: | pointer to the hypervisor connection |
to: | target to receive the copy |
Returns: | 0 if no error was found and the error code otherwise and -1 in case of parameter error. |
virErrorPtr virConnGetLastError (virConnectPtr conn)
Provide a pointer to the last error caught on that connection Simpler but may not be suitable for multithreaded accesses, in which case use virConnCopyLastError()
conn: | pointer to the hypervisor connection |
Returns: | a pointer to the last error or NULL if none occurred. |
void virConnResetLastError (virConnectPtr conn)
Reset the last error caught on that connection
conn: | pointer to the hypervisor connection |
void virConnSetErrorFunc (virConnectPtr conn,
void * userData,
virErrorFunc handler)
Set a connection error handling function, if @handler is NULL it will reset to default which is to pass error back to the global library handler.
conn: | pointer to the hypervisor connection |
userData: | pointer to the user data provided in the handler callback |
handler: | the function to get called in case of error or NULL |
int virCopyLastError (virErrorPtr to)
Copy the content of the last error caught at the library level One will need to free the result with virResetError()
to: | target to receive the copy |
Returns: | 0 if no error was found and the error code otherwise and -1 in case of parameter error. |
void virDefaultErrorFunc (virErrorPtr err)
Default routine reporting an error to stderr.
err: | pointer to the error. |
virErrorPtr virGetLastError (void)
Provide a pointer to the last error caught at the library level Simpler but may not be suitable for multithreaded accesses, in which case use virCopyLastError()
Returns: | a pointer to the last error or NULL if none occurred. |
void virResetError (virErrorPtr err)
Reset the error being pointed to
err: | pointer to the virError to clean up |
void virSetErrorFunc (void * userData,
virErrorFunc handler)
Set a library global error handling function, if @handler is NULL, it will reset to default printing on stderr. The error raised there are those for which no handler at the connection level could caught.
userData: | pointer to the user data provided in the handler callback |
handler: | the function to get called in case of error or NULL |
