Proceduresigerr_c ( Signal Error Condition ) void sigerr_c ( ConstSpiceChar * msg ) AbstractInform the CSPICE error processing mechanism that an error has occurred, and specify the type of error. Required_ReadingERROR KeywordsERROR Brief_I/OVARIABLE I/O DESCRIPTION -------- --- -------------------------------------------------- msg I A short error message. Detailed_Input
msg A ``short'' error message.
msg indicates the type of error that has occurred.
Only the first 25 characters of msg will be stored;
additional characters will be truncated.
Generally, msg will be stored internally by the CSPICE
error handling mechanism. The only exception
is the case in which the user has commanded the error
handling mechanism to ``ignore'' the error indicated by
msg.
As a default, msg will be output to the standard output.
See the required reading file for a discussion of how
to customize CSPICE error handling behavior, and
in particular, the disposition of msg.
Detailed_OutputNone. ParametersNone. Exceptions
1) This routine is part of the interface to the CSPICE error
handling mechanism. For this reason, this routine does not
participate in the trace scheme, even though it has external
references, except in the following two cases.
2) If the `msg' input string pointer is null, the error
SPICE(NULLPOINTER) is signaled.
3) If the `msg' input string has zero length, the error
SPICE(EMPTYSTRING) is signaled.
FilesNone. Particulars
First of all, please read the ``required reading'' file.
The information below will make a lot more sense if you do.
This is the routine used by CSPICE to signal the detection
of errors.
Making a call to sigerr_c is the way to inform the error
handling mechanism that an error has occurred.
Specifically, the effects of this routine are:
1. If responding to the error indicated by msg has
not been disabled:
a. msg will be stored internally. As a result,
The CSPICE routine, getmsg, will be able to
retrieve msg, until msg has been ``erased''
by a call to reset_c, or overwritten by another
call to sigerr_c.
b. An indication of an ``error condition'' will
be set internally. The CSPICE logical
function, failed_c, will take the value, SPICETRUE,
as a result, until the error condition is
negated by a call to reset_c.
c. All of the error messages that have been selected
for automatic output via errprt_c will be output.
The set of messages is some subset of { short message,
long message, explanation of short message,
traceback, and default message }.
d. If the error response mode is not "RETURN",
Setting of the long error message is enabled.
You can't re-set the long error message, once
it has been set, without first signaling an error.
e. In "RETURN" mode, further signaling of error
messages, and setting of the long message, are disabled.
(These capabilities can be re-enabled by calling RESET).
2. If the error handling mechanism has been commanded to
``ignore'' the error indicated by msg, the call to sigerr_c
has no effect.
If you wish to set the long error message, call
setmsg_c BEFORE calling sigerr_c.
Examples
The numerical results shown for these examples may differ across
platforms. The results depend on the SPICE kernels used as
input, the compiler and supporting libraries, and the machine
specific arithmetic implementation.
1) Create a user-defined error message, including both the
short and long messages, providing the value of an integer
and a double precision variables within the long message,
and signal the error.
Example code begins here.
/.
Program sigerr_ex1
./
#include "SpiceUsr.h"
int main()
{
/.
Set long error message, with two different `marker'
strings where the value of the variables will go.
Our markers are "#" and "XX".
./
setmsg_c ( "LONG MESSAGE. Invalid operation value. "
" The value was #. Left endpoint "
"exceeded right endpoint. The left "
"endpoint was: XX." );
/.
Insert the integer number where the # is now.
./
errint_c ( "#", 5 );
/.
Insert a double precision number where the XX is now.
./
errdp_c ( "XX", 910.26111991 );
/.
Signal the error.
./
sigerr_c ( "SPICE(USERDEFINED)" );
return ( 0 );
}
When this program was executed on a Mac/Intel/cc/64-bit
platform, the output was:
=====================================================================
Toolkit version: N0066
SPICE(USERDEFINED) --
LONG MESSAGE. Invalid operation value. The value was 5. Left endpoint
exceeded right endpoint. The left endpoint was: 9.1026111991000E+02.
Oh, by the way: The SPICELIB error handling actions are USER-
TAILORABLE. You can choose whether the Toolkit aborts or continues
when errors occur, which error messages to output, and where to send
the output. Please read the ERROR "Required Reading" file, or see
the routines ERRACT, ERRDEV, and ERRPRT.
=====================================================================
Note that the execution of this program produces the error
SPICE(USERDEFINED), which follows the NAIF standard as
described in the ERROR required reading.
2) Create a user-defined error message, including only the
short messages, and signal the error.
Example code begins here.
/.
Program sigerr_ex2
./
#include "SpiceUsr.h"
int main()
{
/.
Signal the error; the short message is given by
sigerr_c input argument.
./
sigerr_c ( "SPICE(USERDEFINED)" );
return ( 0 );
}
When this program was executed on a Mac/Intel/cc/64-bit
platform, the output was:
=====================================================================
Toolkit version: N0066
SPICE(USERDEFINED) --
Oh, by the way: The SPICELIB error handling actions are USER-
TAILORABLE. You can choose whether the Toolkit aborts or continues
when errors occur, which error messages to output, and where to send
the output. Please read the ERROR "Required Reading" file, or see
the routines ERRACT, ERRDEV, and ERRPRT.
=====================================================================
Note that the execution of this program produces the same
SPICE(USERDEFINED) error as in Example #1, but in this case,
only the short message is presented.
