二、错误处理函数
许多不同的函数库都在失败时设置全局变量errno的值来指明失败原因。值得注意的是函数报告出错后必须立刻检查errno变量,因为它有可能被下一个函数调用所覆盖。
有两个非常有用的函数可以用来报告出现的错误:
#include <string.>
char *strerror(int errnum);
该函数把错误代码映射为一个字符串,对错误类型进行说明。
#include <stdio.h>
void perror(const char *s);
该函数也把errno变量中报告的错误应为到一个字符串,并把它输出到标准错误输出流。
---------------------
查看错误代码errno是调试程序的一个重要方法。当linuc C api函数发生异常时,一般会将errno变量(需include errno.h)赋一个整数值,不同的值表示不同的含义,可以通过查看该值推测出错的原因。在实际编程中用这一招解决了不少原本看来莫名其妙的问题。比较麻烦的是每次都要去linux源代码里面查找错误代码的含义,现在把它贴出来,以后需要查时就来这里看了。
1-34号错误号是在内核源码的include/asm-generic/errno-base.h定义
35-132则是在include/asm-generic/errno.h中定义
剩下还有一些更大的错误号是留给内核级别的,如系统调用等,用户程序一般是看不见的这些号的,Ubuntu9.10中/usr/src/linux-headers-2.6.31-21-generic/include/linux/errno.h
