syserrlst
SYSERRLST(5) File Formats Manual SYSERRLST(5)
NAME
syserrlst - error message file format
DESCRIPTION
mkerrlst(1), creates error message files in the format described below.
An ``error message file'' consists of a header, an array of structures specifying the offset and length of each message, and the array of
message strings separated by newlines.
The message strings are separated by newlines but the newline characters are not included in the size of the message. These newline char-
acters serve only to make the file editable or printable (after stripping off the header).
The file format is:
/*
* Definitions used by the 'mkerrlst' program which creates error message
* files.
*
* The format of the file created is:
*
* struct ERRLSTHDR ehdr;
* struct ERRLST emsg[num_of_messages];
* struct {
* char msg[] = "error message string";
* char lf = '0;
* } [num_of_messages];
*
* Note: the newlines are NOT included in the message lengths, the newlines
* are present to make it easy to 'cat' or 'vi' the file.
*/
struct ERRLSTHDR
{
short magic;
short maxmsgnum;
short maxmsglen;
short pad[5]; /* Reserved */
};
struct ERRLST
{
off_t offmsg;
short lenmsg;
};
#define ERRMAGIC 012345
SEE ALSO
mkerrlst(1), syserrlst(3)
BUGS
Format of the file isn't necessarily portable between machines.
HISTORY
This file format is new with 2.11BSD.
