XtErrorMsg()XtErrorMsg()NameXtErrorMsg - call the high-level fatal error handler.
Synopsis
void XtErrorMsg(name, type, class, default, params, num_params)
String name;
String type;
String class;
String default;
String *params;
Cardinal *num_params;
Inputs
name Specifies the general kind of error.
type Specifies the detailed name of the error.
class Specifies the resource class of the error.
default Specifies the default message to use if no message is found
in the database.
params Specifies an array of values to be inserted into the message.
num_params
Specifies the number of elements in params.
ReturnsXtErrorMsg() terminates the application and does not return.
AvailabilityXtErrorMsg() has been superseded by XtAppErrorMsg().
DescriptionXtErrorMsg() passes all of its arguments to the installed high-level
error handler. The default high-level error handler is _XtDefaultEr‐
rorMsg(). It calls XtAppGetErrorDatabaseText() to lookup an error mes‐
sage of the specified name, type, and class in the error database. If
no such message is found, XtAppGetErrorDatabaseText() returns the spec‐
ified default message. In either case, _XtDefaultErrorMsg() does a
printf-style substitution of params into the message, and passes the
resulting text to the low-level error handler by calling XtError().
UsageXtErrorMsg() has been superseded by XtAppErrorMsg(), which performs the
same function on a per-application context basis. XtErrorMsg() now
calls XtAppErrorMsg() passing the default application context created
by XtInitialize(). Very few programs need multiple application con‐
texts, and you can continue to use XtErrorMsg() if you initialize your
application with XtInitialize(). We recommend, however, that you use
XtAppInitialize(), XtAppErrorMsg(), and the other XtApp*() application
context specific functions.
