dat_strerror(3DAT) Direct Access Transport Library Functions dat_strerror(3DAT)
NAME
dat_strerror - convert a DAT return code into human readable strings
SYNOPSIS
cc [ flag... ] file... -ldat [ library... ]
#include <dat/udat.h>
DAT_RETURN
dat_strerror(
IN DAT_RETURN return,
OUT const char **major_message,
OUT const char **minor_message
)
PARAMETERS
return DAT function return value.
message A pointer to a character string for the return.
DESCRIPTION
The dat_strerror() function converts a DAT return code into human readable strings. The major_message is a string-converted DAT_TYPE_STA-
TUS, while minor_message is a string-converted DAT_SUBTYPE_STATUS. If the return of this function is not DAT_SUCCESS, the values of
major_message and minor_message are not defined.
If an undefined DAT_RETURN value was passed as the return parameter, the operation fails with DAT_INVALID_PARAMETER returned. The operation
succeeds when DAT_SUCCESS is passed in as the return parameter.
RETURN VALUES
DAT_SUCCESS The operation was successful.
DAT_INVALID_PARAMETER Invalid parameter. The return value is invalid.
