DESCRIPTION
ERR_get_error()
returns the earliest error code from the thread's error queue and removes
the entry. This function can be called repeatedly until there are no more
error codes to return.
ERR_peek_error()
returns the earliest error code from the thread's error queue without
modifying it.
ERR_peek_last_error()
returns the latest error code from the thread's error queue without
modifying it.
See ERR_GET_LIB(3) for obtaining information about the location and reason for the error, and ERR_error_string(3) for human-readable error messages.
ERR_get_error_line(),
ERR_peek_error_line(),
and
ERR_peek_last_error_line()
are the same as the above, but they additionally store the file name and
line number where the error occurred in *file and
*line, unless these are
NULL.
ERR_get_error_line_data(),
ERR_peek_error_line_data(),
and
ERR_peek_last_error_line_data()
store additional data and flags associated with the error code in
*data and *flags, unless these
are NULL. *data contains a
string if
*flags&ERR_TXT_STRING is
true.
An application MUST NOT free the *data pointer (or any other pointers returned by these functions) with free(3) as freeing is handled automatically by the error library.
RETURN VALUES
The error code, or 0 if there is no error in the queue.
