Definition at line 44 of file gis/error.c.

◆ MSG

A message.

Definition at line 32 of file gis/error.c.

◆ WARN

#define WARN   1

A warning message.

Function Documentation

◆ G_fatal_error()

void G_fatal_error ( const char *  msg,
  ... 
)

Print a fatal error message to stderr.

The output format depends on environment variable GRASS_MESSAGE_FORMAT

By default, the message is handled by an internal routine which prints the message to the screen. Using G_set_error_routine() the programmer can have the message handled by another routine. This is especially useful if the message should go to a particular location on the screen when using curses or to a location on a graphics device (monitor).

Parameters
msgstring (cannot be NULL)
Returns
Terminates with an exit status of EXIT_FAILURE if no external routine is specified by G_set_error_routine()

Definition at line 160 of file gis/error.c.

References G_verbose().

◆ G_fatal_longjmp()

jmp_buf* G_fatal_longjmp ( int  enable)

Definition at line 67 of file gis/error.c.

◆ G_important_message()

void G_important_message ( const char *  msg,
  ... 
)

Print a message to stderr even in brief mode (verbosity=1)

Usually just G_percent()/G_clicker() would be shown at this level. This allows important non-error/warning messages to display as well.

The output format depends on environment variables GRASS_MESSAGE_FORMAT and GRASS_VERBOSE

Parameters
msgstring (cannot be NULL)

Definition at line 131 of file gis/error.c.

References G_verbose(), and G_verbose_min().

◆ G_info_format()

int G_info_format ( void  )

Get current message format.

Maybe set to either "standard" or "gui" (normally GRASS takes care)

Returns
grass_info_format value

Definition at line 532 of file gis/error.c.

References G_init_logging().

◆ G_init_logging()

void G_init_logging ( void  )

Definition at line 351 of file gis/error.c.

Referenced by G_info_format(), and G_init_all().

◆ G_message()

void G_message ( const char *  msg,
  ... 
)

Print a message to stderr.

The output format depends on environment variable GRASS_MESSAGE_FORMAT

Parameters
msgstring (cannot be NULL)

Definition at line 90 of file gis/error.c.

References G_verbose(), and G_verbose_std().

◆ G_set_error_routine()

void G_set_error_routine ( int(*)(const char *, int)  error_routine)

Establishes error_routine as the routine that will handle the printing of subsequent error messages.

Parameters
error_routineroutine will be called like this: error_routine(msg, fatal)
Returns

Definition at line 261 of file gis/error.c.

◆ G_sleep_on_error()

int G_sleep_on_error ( int  flag)

Turn on/off no_sleep flag.

If flag is 0, then no pause will occur after printing an error or warning message. Otherwise the pause will occur.

Parameters
flagif non-zero/zero value is given G_sleep() will be activated/deactivated
Returns
previous no_sleep value

Definition at line 243 of file gis/error.c.

◆ G_suppress_warnings()

int G_suppress_warnings ( int  flag)

Suppress printing a warning message to stderr.

Parameters
flaga warning message will be suppressed if non-zero value is given
Returns
previous flag

Definition at line 223 of file gis/error.c.

Referenced by I_get_group(), I_get_group_title(), I_get_subgroup(), and I_get_target().

◆ G_unset_error_routine()

void G_unset_error_routine ( void  )

After this call subsequent error messages will be handled in the default method.

Error messages are printed directly to the screen: ERROR: message or WARNING: message

Returns
0

Definition at line 274 of file gis/error.c.

◆ G_verbose_message()

void G_verbose_message ( const char *  msg,
  ... 
)

Print a message to stderr but only if module is in verbose mode.

The output format depends on environment variables GRASS_MESSAGE_FORMAT and GRASS_VERBOSE

Parameters
msgstring (cannot be NULL)

Definition at line 109 of file gis/error.c.

References G_verbose(), and G_verbose_std().

◆ G_warning()

void G_warning ( const char *  msg,
  ... 
)

Print a warning message to stderr.

The output format depends on environment variable GRASS_MESSAGE_FORMAT

A warning message can be suppressed by G_suppress_warnings()

Parameters
msgstring (cannot be NULL)
Returns
