globus_error_get_short_desc (3)

Get and set data in a Globus Generic Error object.

This section defines operations for accessing and modifying data in a Globus Generic Error object.

globus_object_t* globus_error_get_cause (globus_object_t *error)

Retrieve the underlying error from a error object.

Parameters:

error The error from which to retrieve the causative error.

Returns:

The underlying error object if it exists, NULL if it doesn't.

char* globus_error_get_long_desc (globus_object_t *error)

Retrieve the long error description from a generic globus error object.

Parameters:

error The error from which to retrieve the description

Returns:

The long error description of the object

char* globus_error_get_short_desc (globus_object_t *error)

Retrieve the short error description from a generic globus error object.

Parameters:

error The error from which to retrieve the description

Returns:

The short error description of the object

\fBglobus_module_descriptor_t\fP* globus_error_get_source (globus_object_t *error)

Retrieve the originating module descriptor from a error object.

Parameters:

error The error from which to retrieve the module descriptor

Returns:

The originating module descriptor.

int globus_error_get_type (globus_object_t *error)

Retrieve the error type from a generic globus error object.

Parameters:

error The error from which to retrieve the error type

Returns:

The error type of the object

void globus_error_set_cause (globus_object_t *error, globus_object_t *causal_error)

Set the causative error in a error object.

Parameters:

error The error object for which to set the causative error.

causal_error The causative error.

Returns:

void

void globus_error_set_long_desc (globus_object_t *error, const char *long_desc_format, ...)

Set the long error description in a generic globus error object.

Parameters:

error The error object for which to set the description

long_desc_format Longer format string giving a more detailed explanation of the error.

Returns:

void

void globus_error_set_short_desc (globus_object_t *error, const char *short_desc_format, ...)

Set the short error description in a generic globus error object.

Parameters:

error The error object for which to set the description

short_desc_format Short format string giving a succinct description of the error. To be passed on to the user.

... Arguments for the format string.

Returns:

void

void globus_error_set_source (globus_object_t *error, \fBglobus_module_descriptor_t\fP *source_module)

Set the originating module descriptor in a error object.

Parameters:

error The error object for which to set the causative error

source_module The originating module descriptor

Returns:

void

void globus_error_set_type (globus_object_t *error, const inttype)

Set the error type in a generic globus error object.

Parameters:

error The error object for which to set the error type

type The error type

Returns:

void
