csx_Error2Text(9F)

Name

csx_Error2Text - convert error return codes to text strings

Synopsis

#include <sys/pccard.h> 

int32_t csx_Error2Text(error2text_t *er);

Interface Level

Solaris DDI Specific (Solaris DDI)

Parameters

er

Pointer to an error2text_t structure.

Description

This function is a Solaris-specific extension that provides a method for clients to convert Card Services error return codes to text strings.

Structure Members

The structure members of error2text_t are:

uint32_t     item;                             /*the error code*/
char         test[CS_ERROR_MAX_BUFSIZE};       /*the error code*/

A pointer to the text for the Card Services error return code in the item field is returned in the text field if the error return code is found. The client is not responsible for allocating a buffer to hold the text. If the Card Services error return code specified in the item field is not found, the text field will be set to a string of the form:

"{unknown Card Services return code}"

Return Values

CS_SUCCESS

Successful operation.

CS_UNSUPPORTED_FUNCTION

No PCMCIA hardware installed.

Context

This function may be called from user or kernel context.

Examples

Example 1 : Using the csxError2Text function

if ((ret = csx_RegisterClient(&client_handle, &
	   client_reg)) != CS_SUCCESS)
{
   error2text_t error2text;
   error2text.item = ret;
   csx_Error2Text(&error2text);
   cmn_err(CE_CONT, "RegisterClient failed %s (0x%x)", 
	   error2text.text, ret);
}
