#include <fmtmsg.h>
The <fmtmsg.h> header defines the following macros, which expand to constant integral expressions:
- MM_HARD
- Source of the condition is hardware.
- MM_SOFT
- Source of the condition is software.
- MM_FIRM
- Source of the condition is firmware.
- MM_APPL
- Condition detected by application.
- MM_UTIL
- Condition detected by utility.
- MM_OPSYS
- Condition detected by operating system.
- MM_RECOVER
- Recoverable error.
- MM_NRECOV
- Non-recoverable error.
- MM_HALT
- Error causing application to halt.
- MM_ERROR
- Application has encountered a non-fatal fault.
- MM_WARNING
- Application has detected unusual non-error condition.
- MM_INFO
- Informative message.
- MM_NOSEV
- No severity level provided for the message.
- MM_PRINT
- Display message on standard error.
- MM_CONSOLE
- Display message on system console.
The table below indicates the null values and identifiers for fmtmsg() arguments. The <fmtmsg.h> header defines the macros in the Identifier column, which expand to constant expressions that expand to expressions of the type indicated in the Type column:
Argument Type Null-Value Identifier label char* (char*)0 MM_NULLLBL severity int 0 MM_NULLSEV class long int 0L MM_NULLMC text char* (char*)0 MM_NULLTXT action char* (char*)0 MM_NULLACT tag char* (char*)0 MM_NULLTAG The <fmtmsg.h> header also defines the following macros for use as return values for fmtmsg():
- MM_OK
- The function succeeded.
- MM_NOTOK
- The function failed completely.
- MM_NOMSG
- The function was unable to generate a message on standard error, but otherwise succeeded.
- MM_NOCON
- The function was unable to generate a console message, but otherwise succeeded.
The following is declared as a function and may also be defined as a macro. A function prototype must be provided for use with an ISO C compiler.
