Mac::Errors - constants for Mac error codes
use Mac::Errors qw(openErr);
if( $value == openErr )
{
...
}
my $error = $MacErrors{ $symbol };
# -- OR --
my $error = $MacErrors{ $number };
my $symbol = $error->symbol;
my $number = $error->number;
my $desc = $error->description;
# in MacPerl, $^E is meaningful, and we tie $MacError to it
use Mac::Errors qw( $MacError );
open FILE, $foo or die $^E; # error number
open FILE, $foo or die $MacError; # gets description from $^E
The %MacErrors hash indexes error information by the error number or symbol. Each value is a Mac::Errors object which has the symbol, number, and description.
The $MacError scalar performs some tied magic to translate MacPerl's $^E to the error text.
Returns the symbolic constant, (e.g. openErr)
Returns the error number, (e.g. -23)
Returns the errror description from MacErrors.h, which may mean something to you, and may not, (e.g. I/O System Errors).
Descriptions of errors are not unique, and some errors do not have a description.
All symbolic constants also have a subroutine of the same name. The subroutine returns the error number.
