DLERROR(3) BSD Library Functions Manual DLERROR(3)
NAME
dlerror -- get diagnostic information
SYNOPSIS
#include <dlfcn.h>
const char*
dlerror(void);
DESCRIPTION
dlerror() returns a null-terminated character string describing the last error that occurred on this thread during a call to dlopen(),
dlopen_preflight(), dlsym(), or dlclose(). If no such error has occurred, dlerror() returns a null pointer. At each call to dlerror(), the
error indication is reset. Thus in the case of two calls to dlerror(), where the second call follows the first immediately, the second call
will always return a null pointer.
