SYNOPSIS

#include <pool.h>
int pool_error(void);
const char *pool_strerror(int perr);
DESCRIPTION
The pool_error() function returns the error value of the last failure
recorded by the invocation of one of the functions of the resource pool
configuration library, libpool.
The pool_strerror() function returns a descriptive null-terminated
string for each of the valid pool error codes.
The following error codes can be returned by pool_error():
RETURN VALUES
The pool_error() function returns the current pool error value for the
calling thread from among the following:
POE_ACCESS The operation could not be performed because
the configuration was not opened with the cor‐
rect opening permissions.
POE_BADPARAM A bad parameter was supplied.
POE_BAD_PROP_TYPE An incorrect property type was submitted or
encountered during the pool operation.
POE_DATASTORE An error occurred within permanent storage.
POE_INVALID_CONF The pool configuration presented for the opera‐
tion is invalid.
POE_INVALID_SEARCH A query whose outcome set was empty was
attempted.
POE_NOTSUP An unsupported operation was attempted.
POE_PUTPROP An attempt to write a read-only property was
made.
POE_OK The previous pool operation succeeded.
POE_SYSTEM An underlying system call or library function
failed; errno(3C) is preserved where possible.
The pool_strerror() function returns a pointer to the string corre‐
sponding to the requested error value. If the error value has no corre‐
sponding string, −1 is returned and errno is set to indicate the error.
