◆ H5Eget_auto1()

herr_t H5Eget_auto1	(	H5E_auto1_t *	func,
		void **	client_data
	)

Returns the current settings for the automatic error stack traversal function and its data.

Parameters

[out]	func	Current setting for the function to be called upon an error condition
[out]	client_data	Current setting for the data passed to the error function

Returns: Returns a non-negative value if successful; otherwise, returns a negative value.

Deprecated:: 1.8.0 Function H5Eget_auto() renamed to H5Eget_auto1() and deprecated in this release.

H5Eget_auto1() returns the current settings for the automatic error stack traversal function, func, and its data, client_data. Either or both arguments may be NULL, in which case the value is not returned.

The library initializes its default error stack traversal functions to H5Eprint1() and H5Eprint2(). A call to H5Eget_auto2() returns H5Eprint2() or the user-defined function passed in through H5Eset_auto2(). A call to H5Eget_auto1() returns H5Eprint1() or the user-defined function passed in through H5Eset_auto1(). However, if the application passes in a user-defined function through H5Eset_auto1(), it should call H5Eget_auto1() to query the traversal function. If the application passes in a user-defined function through H5Eset_auto2(), it should call H5Eget_auto2() to query the traversal function.

Mixing the new style and the old style functions will cause a failure. For example, if the application sets a user-defined old-style traversal function through H5Eset_auto1(), a call to H5Eget_auto2() will fail and will indicate that the application has mixed H5Eset_auto1() and H5Eget_auto2(). On the other hand, mixing H5Eset_auto2() and H5Eget_auto1() will also cause a failure. But if the traversal functions are the library's default H5Eprint1() or H5Eprint2(), mixing H5Eset_auto1() and H5Eget_auto2() or mixing H5Eset_auto2() and H5Eget_auto1() does not fail.

Since: 1.0.0

◆ H5Eget_auto2()

herr_t H5Eget_auto2	(	hid_t	estack_id,
		H5E_auto2_t *	func,
		void **	client_data
	)

Returns the settings for the automatic error stack traversal function and its data.

Parameters

[in]	estack_id	Error stack identifier
[out]	func	The function currently set to be called upon an error condition
[out]	client_data	Data currently set to be passed to the error function

Returns: Returns a non-negative value if successful; otherwise, returns a negative value.

H5Eget_auto2() returns the settings for the automatic error stack traversal function, func, and its data, client_data, that are associated with the error stack specified by estack_id.

Either or both of the func and client_data arguments may be NULL, in which case the value is not returned.

The library initializes its default error stack traversal functions to H5Eprint1() and H5Eprint2(). A call to H5Eget_auto2() returns H5Eprint2() or the user-defined function passed in through H5Eset_auto2(). A call to H5Eget_auto1() returns H5Eprint1() or the user-defined function passed in through H5Eset_auto1(). However, if the application passes in a user-defined function through H5Eset_auto1(), it should call H5Eget_auto1() to query the traversal function. If the application passes in a user-defined function through H5Eset_auto2(), it should call H5Eget_auto2() to query the traversal function.

Mixing the new style and the old style functions will cause a failure. For example, if the application sets a user-defined old-style traversal function through H5Eset_auto1(), a call to H5Eget_auto2() will fail and will indicate that the application has mixed H5Eset_auto1() and H5Eget_auto2(). On the other hand, mixing H5Eset_auto2() and H5Eget_auto1() will also cause a failure. But if the traversal functions are the library's default H5Eprint1() or H5Eprint2(), mixing H5Eset_auto1() and H5Eget_auto2() or mixing H5Eset_auto2() and H5Eget_auto1() does not fail.

Since: 1.8.0

◆ H5Eget_class_name()

ssize_t H5Eget_class_name	(	hid_t	class_id,
		char *	name,
		size_t	size
	)

Retrieves error class name.

Parameters

[in]	class_id	Error class identifier
[out]	name	Buffer for the error class name
[in]	size	The maximum number of characters of the class name to be returned by this function in `name`.

Returns: Returns non-negative value as on success; otherwise returns negative value.

H5Eget_class_name() retrieves the name of the error class specified by the class identifier. If a non-NULL pointer is passed in for name and size is greater than zero, the class name of size long is returned. The length of the error class name is also returned.

Up to size characters of the error class name are returned in name; additional characters, if any, are not returned to the user application.

If the length of the error class name, which determines the required value of size, is unknown, a preliminary call to H5Eget_class_name() with the last two parameters set to NULL and zero respectively can be made. The return value of this call will be the size in bytes of the error class name. That value, plus 1 for a NULL terminator, must then be assigned to size for a second H5Eget_class_name() call, which will retrieve the actual error class name.

If zero is returned, it means the error class has no name.

Since: 1.8.0

◆ H5Eget_current_stack()

hid_t H5Eget_current_stack ( void )

Returns a copy of the current error stack.

Returns: Returns an error stack identifier if successful; otherwise returns H5I_INVALID_HID.

H5Eget_current_stack() copies the current error stack and returns an error stack identifier for the new copy.

Since: 1.8.0

◆ H5Eget_major()

char * H5Eget_major ( H5E_major_t maj )

Returns a character string describing an error specified by a major error number.

Parameters

[in] maj Major error number

Returns: Pointer to the message (success), or NULL (failure)

Deprecated:: 1.8.0 Function deprecated in this release.

H5Eget_major() returns a constant character string that describes the error, given a major error number.

Attention: This function returns a dynamically allocated string (char array). An application calling this function must free the memory associated with the return value to prevent a memory leak.

Since: 1.0.0

◆ H5Eget_minor()

char * H5Eget_minor ( H5E_minor_t min )

Returns a character string describing an error specified by a minor error number.

Parameters

[in] min Minor error number

Returns: Pointer to the message (success), or NULL (failure)

Deprecated:: 1.8.0 Function deprecated and return type changed in this release.

H5Eget_minor() returns a constant character string that describes the error, given a minor error number.

Attention: In the Release 1.8.x series, H5Eget_minor() returns a string of dynamic allocated char array. An application calling this function from an HDF5 library of Release 1.8.0 or later must free the memory associated with the return value to prevent a memory leak. This is a change from the 1.6.x release series.

Since: 1.0.0

◆ H5Eget_msg()

ssize_t H5Eget_msg	(	hid_t	msg_id,

Returns: Returns the size of the error message in bytes on success; otherwise returns a negative value.

H5Eget_msg() retrieves the error message including its length and type. The error message is specified by msg_id. The user is responsible for passing in sufficient buffer space for the message. If msg is not NULL and size is greater than zero, the error message of size long is returned. The length of the message is also returned. If NULL is passed in as msg, only the length and type of the message is returned. If the return value is zero, it means there is no message.

Since: 1.8.0

◆ H5Eget_num()

ssize_t H5Eget_num ( hid_t error_stack_id )

Retrieves the number of error messages in an error stack.

Parameters

[in] error_stack_id Error stack identifier

Returns: Returns number of error messages in an error stack on success; otherwise returns a negative value.

Check if pushing errors on an error stack is paused

Parameters

[in]	stack_id	Error stack identifier
[out]	is_paused	Flag whether stack is paused

Returns: Returns a non-negative value if successful; otherwise, returns a negative value.

H5Eis_paused() can be used within HDF5 VOL connectors and other dynamically loaded components to check if the HDF5 library, or other component has paused pushing error on the default error stack or an application stack.

The library may pause pushing errors on the default error stack when performing "speculative" operations, such as testing for the existence of something that could be located at one of many locations. stack_id is the error stack to query, and the value pointed to by is_paused is set to TRUE/FALSE.

If an error occurs while attempting to query the status of stack_id, the value pointed to by is_paused is unchanged.

Since: 1.14.5

◆ H5Epause_stack()

	)

Turns automatic error printing on or off.

Parameters

[in]	estack_id	Error stack identifier
[in]	func	Function to be called upon an error condition
[in]	client_data	Data passed to the error function

Returns: Returns a non-negative value if successful; otherwise, returns a negative value.

H5Eset_auto2() turns on or off automatic printing of errors for the error stack specified with estack_id. An estack_id value of H5E_DEFAULT indicates the current stack.

When automatic printing is turned on, by the use of a non-null func pointer, any API function which returns an error indication will first call func, passing it client_data as an argument.

func, a function compliant with the H5E_auto2_t prototype, is defined in the H5Epublic.h source code file as:

typedef herr_t (*H5E_auto2_t)(hid_t estack, void *client_data);

H5E_auto2_t

herr_t(* H5E_auto2_t)(hid_t estack, void *client_data)

Callback function for H5Eset_auto2()

Definition H5Epublic.h:191

hid_t

int64_t hid_t

Definition H5Ipublic.h:60

When the library is first initialized, the auto printing function is set to H5Eprint2() (cast appropriately) and client_data is the standard error stream pointer, stderr.

Automatic stack traversal is always in the H5E_WALK_DOWNWARD direction.

Automatic error printing is turned off with a H5Eset_auto2() call with a NULL func pointer.

Since: 1.8.0

◆ H5Eset_current_stack()

herr_t H5Eset_current_stack ( hid_t err_stack_id )

Replaces the current error stack.

Parameters

[in] err_stack_id Error stack identifier

Returns: Returns a non-negative value if successful; otherwise, returns a negative value.

H5Eset_current_stack() replaces the content of the current error stack with a copy of the content of the error stack specified by err_stack_id, and it closes the error stack specified by err_stack_id.

Since: 1.8.0

◆ H5Eunregister_class()

herr_t H5Eunregister_class ( hid_t class_id )

Removes an error class.

Parameters

[in] class_id Error class identifier.

Returns: Returns a non-negative value if successful; otherwise, returns a negative value.

H5Eunregister_class() removes the error class specified by class_id. All the major and minor errors in this class will also be closed.

Since: 1.8.0

◆ H5Ewalk1()

herr_t H5Ewalk1	(	H5E_direction_t	direction,
		H5E_walk1_t	func,
		void *	client_data
	)

Walks the current error stack, calling the specified function.

Parameters

[in]	direction	Direction in which the error stack is to be walked
[in]	func	Function to be called for each error encountered
[in]	client_data	Data to be passed to `func`

Returns: Returns a non-negative value if successful; otherwise, returns a negative value.

Deprecated:: 1.8.0 Function H5Ewalk() renamed to H5Ewalk1() and deprecated in this release.

H5Ewalk1() walks the error stack for the current thread and calls the function specified in func for each error along the way.

direction specifies whether the stack is walked from the inside out or the outside in. A value of H5E_WALK_UPWARD means to begin with the most specific error and end at the API; a value of H5E_WALK_DOWNWARD means to start at the API and end at the innermost function where the error was first detected.

func, a function conforming to the H5E_walk1_t prototype, will be called for each error in the error stack. Its arguments will include an index number n (beginning at zero regardless of stack traversal direction), an error stack entry err_desc, and the client_data pointer passed to H5Eprint(). The H5E_walk1_t prototype is as follows:

typedef herr_t (*H5E_walk1_t)(int n, H5E_error1_t *err_desc, void *client_data);

H5E_walk1_t

herr_t(* H5E_walk1_t)(int n, H5E_error1_t *err_desc, void *client_data)

◆ H5Ewalk2()

herr_t H5Ewalk2	(	hid_t	err_stack,
		H5E_direction_t	direction,
		H5E_walk2_t	func,
		void *	client_data
	)

Walks the specified error stack, calling the specified function.

Parameters

[in]	err_stack	Error stack identifier
[in]	direction	Direction in which the error stack is to be walked
[in]	func	Function to be called for each error encountered
[in]	client_data	Data to be passed to `func`

Returns: Returns a non-negative value if successful; otherwise, returns a negative value.

H5Ewalk2() walks the error stack specified by err_stack for the current thread and calls the function specified in func for each error along the way.

If the value of err_stack is H5E_DEFAULT, then H5Ewalk2() walks the current error stack.

direction specifies whether the stack is walked from the inside out or the outside in. A value of H5E_WALK_UPWARD means to begin with the most specific error and end at the API; a value of H5E_WALK_DOWNWARD means to start at the API and end at the innermost function where the error was first detected.

func, a function conforming to the H5E_walk2_t prototype, will be called for each error in the error stack. Its arguments will include an index number n (beginning at zero regardless of stack traversal direction), an error stack entry err_desc, and the client_data pointer passed to H5Eprint(). The H5E_walk2_t prototype is as follows:

typedef herr_t (*H5E_walk2_t)(unsigned n, const H5E_error2_t *err_desc, void *client_data);

H5E_walk2_t

herr_t(* H5E_walk2_t)(unsigned n, const H5E_error2_t *err_desc, void *client_data)
