XtAppError()XtAppError()NameXtAppError - call the low-level error handler.
Synopsis
void XtAppError(app_context, message)
XtAppContext app_context;
String message;
Inputs
app_context
Specifies the application context.
message Specifies the error message to be reported.
ReturnsXtAppError() terminates the application and does not return.
DescriptionXtAppError() passes its arguments to the installed low-level error han‐
dler. On POSIX systems, the default handler is _XtDefaultError(). It
prints the message to the stderr stream and calls exit().
Usage
To report non-fatal error messages or warnings without exiting, use
XtAppWarning() or XtAppWarningMsg(). To change the low-level error
handler, use XtAppSetErrorHandler().
XtAppError() calls the "low-level" error handler. It is better to use
XtAppErrorMsg() which calls the "high-level" error handler. The high-
level handler looks up the error message in a resource database and so
allows for customization and internationalization of error messages.
Although the Intrinsics interface allows separate error and warning
handlers for each application context, most implementations will sup‐
port only a single set of handlers. When a new handler is installed,
it will be used in all application contexts.
