Applies To

Description
This method returns a text description (if one is available) of the current internal class library error.

Usage
const char *GetErrorText(void) const

Remarks
This method returns a text description of the most recent internal error on this object. If no error condition exists, or if no text is available for the most recent error, the method returns a NULL. Calling ErrorNumber gives you the error number even if no text is available.

The string returned is owned by the object. The caller should not free it; it will be freed when the object is destroyed, closed, or the next time the error is reset. The error is reset whenever you call a method.

Oracle database errors (as distinct from error that occur in the use of the class library) are reported through the OSession and ODatabase methods ServerErrorNumber and GetServerErrorText.

Return Value
A test description (if one is available) of the current internal class library error.
