Rename the #define E__COUNT to ECOUNT to avoid confusion with "E_STRING" error symbols. Improve formatting of help/error, help/errno, and help/strerror. Update .gitignore.

NAME
|
|
errno - return or set a the global calc_errno value
|
|
|
|
SYNOPSIS
|
|
errno([errnum | "E_STRING"])
|
|
|
|
TYPES
|
|
errnum integer
|
|
E_STRING string
|
|
|
|
return integer
|
|
|
|
DESCRIPTION
|
|
With errno(errnum) numeric argument:
|
|
|
|
errno(errnum) sets "global calc_errno value" to the value
|
|
errnum and returns its previous value. Unlike error(errnum)
|
|
calling errno(errnum) does NOT increment the global calc
|
|
error count (see help errcount).
|
|
|
|
With errno("E_STRING") string argument:
|
|
|
|
XXX - fill in - XXX
|
|
|
|
With errno() no argument:
|
|
|
|
errno() returns the current value of "global calc_errno
|
|
value". Unlike error() calling errno() does NOT increment
|
|
the global calc error count (see help errcount).
|
|
|
|
NOTE:
|
|
|
|
The errno() builtin should not be confused with the errno
|
|
used by libc in C. The range of errnum extend beyond the
|
|
C's libc errno. See help error for information on the mean
|
|
of various errnum ranges.
|
|
|
|
Unlike error() calling errno() does NOT increment the global
|
|
calc error count (see help errcount).
|
|
|
|
Whenever an operation or evaluation of function returns an error-value,
|
|
the numerical code for that value is stored as "global calc_errno value".
|
|
|
|
The term "global calc_errno value" is an internal calc state.
|
|
This is NOT a calc variable called calc_errno.
|
|
|
|
To detect whether an error occurs during some sequence of operations,
|
|
one may immediately before that sequence set the stored error-number
|
|
to zero by errno(0), and then after the operations, whether or not
|
|
an error has occurred will be indicated by errno() being nonzero or
|
|
zero. If a non-zero value is returned, that value will be the code
|
|
for the most recent error encountered.
|
|
|
|
The default argument for the functions error() and strerror() is the
|
|
currently stored error-number; in particular, if no error-value has
|
|
been returned after the last errno(0), strerror() will return
|
|
"No error".
|

|
EXAMPLE
|
|
; ## Assuming there is no file with name "not_a_file"
|
|
|
|
; errcount(0),; errmax(20),;
|
|
; print errcount(), errmax()
|
|
0 20
|
|
|
|
; badfile = fopen("not_a_file", "r")
|
|
; print errcount(), errno(), strerror()
|
|
1 2 No such file or directory
|
|
|
|
; a = 1/0
|
|
; print errcount(), errno(), strerror()
|
|
2 10001 Division by zero
|
|
|
|
LIMITS
|
|
0 <= errnum <= 32767
|
|
|
|
E_STRING is string matching the regular expression: "^E_[A-Z0-9_]+$"
|
