SYNTAX

XrmDatabase *XtAppGetErrorDatabase(XtAppContext app_context);

void XtAppGetErrorDatabaseText(XtAppContext app_context, char *name, char *type, char *class, char *default, char *buffer_return, int nbytes, XrmDatabase database);

ARGUMENTS

app_context

Specifies the application context.

buffer_return

Specifies the buffer into which the error message is to be returned.

database

Specifies the name of the alternative database that is to be used or NULL if the application's database is to be used.

DESCRIPTION

The XtAppGetErrorDatabase function returns the address of the error database. The Intrinsics do a lazy binding of the error database and do not merge in the database file until the first call to XtAppGetErrorDatbaseText.

The XtAppGetErrorDatabaseText returns the appropriate message from the error database or returns the specified default message if one is not found in the error database.
