- The ssttrreerrrroorr() and ppeerrrroorr() functions lookup the error message string af
- filiated with an error number.
-
- The sstteerrrroorr() function accepts an error number argument _e_r_r_n_u_m and re
- turns a pointer to the corresponding message string.
-
- The ppeerrrroorr() function finds the error message corresponding to the cur
- rent value of the global variable _e_r_r_n_o and writes it, followed by a new
- line, to the _s_t_d_e_r_r. If the argument _s_t_r_i_n_g is nonNULL it is pre
- appended to the message string and separated from it by a colon and space
- (`: '). If _s_t_r_i_n_g is NULL only the error message string is printed.
-
- The message strings can be accessed directly using the external character
- array _s_y_s___e_r_r_l_i_s_t. The external value _s_y_s___n_e_r_r contains a count of the
- messages in _s_y_s___e_r_r_l_i_s_t. The use of these variables is deprecated;
- ssttrreerrrroorr() should be used instead.
