31 *
32 * The error module can provide a system that mimics the errno system
33 * of the C standard library. It consists in 2 parts:
34 *
35 * @li a way of registering new messages with
36 * eina_error_msg_register() and eina_error_msg_get(),
37 * @li a way of setting / getting last error message with
38 * eina_error_set() / eina_error_get().
39 *
40 * So one has to fisrt register all the error messages that a program
41 * or a lib should manage. Then, when an error can occur, use
42 * eina_error_set(), and when errors are managed, use
43 * eina_error_get(). If eina_error_set() is used to set an error, do
44 * not forget to call before eina_error_set(), to remove previous set
45 * errors.
46 *
47 * Here is an example of use:
48 *
49 * @include eina_error_01.c
50 *
51 * Of course, instead of printf(), eina_log_print() can be used to
52 * have beautiful error messages.

59 *
60 * The Eina error module provides a way to manage errors in a simple but
61 * powerful way in libraries and modules. It is also used in Eina itself.
62 * Similar to libC's @c errno and strerror() facilities, this is extensible and
63 * recommended for other libraries and applications.
64 *
65 * A simple example of how to use this can be seen @ref tutorial_error_page
66 * "here".
