ReqErr(3I) InterViews Reference Manual ReqErr(3I)
NAME
ReqErr - handle request errors
SYNOPSIS
#include <InterViews/reqerr.h>
DESCRIPTION
Some requests to the window server may generate an error. For example, if a window is destroyed while it is being repositioned interac-
tively, the request to place the window in the new position will fail. Normally, errors cause a process to terminate. The ReqErr class is
used to handle errors within an application. The base class defines the attributes associated with each error, including a message string
describing the error, an integer request code that specifies the kind of call that generated the error, and a id object that was the target
of the request. When an error occurs, the attributes of the current request handler are assigned and the handler's Error operation is
called.
