XtAppError()															      XtAppError()

Name
  XtAppError - call the low-level error handler.

Synopsis
  void XtAppError(app_context, message)
	 XtAppContext app_context;
	 String message;

Inputs
  app_context
	    Specifies the application context.

  message   Specifies the error message to be reported.

Returns
  XtAppError() terminates the application and does not return.

Description
  XtAppError()	passes	its  arguments to the installed low-level error handler.  On POSIX systems, the default handler is _XtDefaultError().
  It prints the message to the stderr stream and calls exit().

Usage
  To report non-fatal error messages or warnings without exiting, use XtAppWarning() or XtAppWarningMsg().  To	change	the  low-level	error
  handler, use XtAppSetErrorHandler().

  XtAppError()	calls  the  "low-level"  error handler.  It is better to use XtAppErrorMsg() which calls the "high-level" error handler.  The
  high-level handler looks up the error message in a resource database and so allows for customization and internationalization of error mes-
  sages.

  Although  the  Intrinsics interface allows separate error and warning handlers for each application context, most implementations will sup-
  port only a single set of handlers.  When a new handler is installed, it will be used in all application contexts.
