NAME
TIFFError, TIFFSetErrorHandler - library error handling interface
SYNOPSIS
#include <tiffio.h>
void TIFFError(const char *module, const char *fmt, ...)
#include <stdarg.h>
typedef void (*TIFFErrorHandler)(const char *module, const char *fmt, va_list ap);
TIFFErrorHandler TIFFSetErrorHandler(TIFFErrorHandler handler);
DESCRIPTION
TIFFError
invokes the library-wide error handling function to (normally) write an error
message to the
stderr.
The
fmt
parameter is a
printf(3S)
format string, and any number arguments can be supplied. The
module
parameter, if non-zero, is printed before the message; it typically is used to
identify the software module in which an error is detected.
Applications that desire to capture control in the event of an error should
use
TIFFSetErrorHandler
to override the default error handler.
A
NULL
(0) error handling function may be installed to suppress error messages.
RETURN VALUES
TIFFSetErrorHandler
returns a reference to the previous error handling function.
