1184<h2 id="synopsis">Synopsis<a class="headerlink" href="#synopsis" title="Permanent link">&para;</a></h2>
1185<p>The header file <code>fterrors.h</code> (which is automatically included by <code>freetype.h</code> defines the handling of FreeType's enumeration constants. It can also be used to generate error message strings with a small macro trick explained below.</p>
1186<p><strong>Error Formats</strong></p>
1187<p>The configuration macro <code>FT_CONFIG_OPTION_USE_MODULE_ERRORS</code> can be defined in <code>ftoption.h</code> in order to make the higher byte indicate the module where the error has happened (this is not compatible with standard builds of FreeType&nbsp;2, however). See the file <code>ftmoderr.h</code> for more details.</p>
1188<p><strong>Error Message Strings</strong></p>
1189<p>Error definitions are set up with special macros that allow client applications to build a table of error message strings. The strings are not included in a normal build of FreeType&nbsp;2 to save space (most client applications do not use them).</p>
1190<p>To do so, you have to define the following macros before including this file.
1191<div class="highlight"><pre><span></span><code>  FT_ERROR_START_LIST
1192</code></pre></div></p>
1193<p>This macro is called before anything else to define the start of the error list. It is followed by several <code>FT_ERROR_DEF</code> calls.
1194<div class="highlight"><pre><span></span><code>  FT_ERROR_DEF( e, v, s )
1195</code></pre></div></p>
1196<p>This macro is called to define one single error. &lsquo;e&rsquo; is the error code identifier (e.g., <code>Invalid_Argument</code>), &lsquo;v&rsquo; is the error's numerical value, and &lsquo;s&rsquo; is the corresponding error string.
1197<div class="highlight"><pre><span></span><code>  FT_ERROR_END_LIST
1198</code></pre></div></p>
1199<p>This macro ends the list.</p>
1200<p>Additionally, you have to undefine <code>FTERRORS_H_</code> before #including this file.</p>
1201<p>Here is a simple example.
1202<div class="highlight"><pre><span></span><code>  #undef FTERRORS_H_
1203  #define FT_ERRORDEF( e, v, s )  { e, s },
1204  #define FT_ERROR_START_LIST     {
1205  #define FT_ERROR_END_LIST       { 0, NULL } };
1206
1207  const struct
1208  {
1209    int          err_code;
1210    const char*  err_msg;
1211  } ft_errors[] =
1212
1213  #include &lt;freetype/fterrors.h&gt;
1214</code></pre></div></p>
1215<p>An alternative to using an array is a switch statement.
1216<div class="highlight"><pre><span></span><code>  #undef FTERRORS_H_
1217  #define FT_ERROR_START_LIST     switch ( error_code ) {
1218  #define FT_ERRORDEF( e, v, s )    case v: return s;
1219  #define FT_ERROR_END_LIST       }
1220</code></pre></div></p>
1221<p>If you use <code>FT_CONFIG_OPTION_USE_MODULE_ERRORS</code>, <code>error_code</code> should be replaced with <code>FT_ERROR_BASE(error_code)</code> in the last example.</p>
1222<h2 id="ft_error_string">FT_Error_String<a class="headerlink" href="#ft_error_string" title="Permanent link">&para;</a></h2>
1223<p>Defined in FT_ERRORS_H (freetype/fterrors.h).</p>
1224<div class = "codehilite"><pre><code>  FT_EXPORT( <span class="keyword">const</span> <span class="keyword">char</span>* )
1225  <b>FT_Error_String</b>( <a href="ft2-basic_types.html#ft_error">FT_Error</a>  error_code );
1226</code></pre></div>
1227
1228<p>Retrieve the description of a valid FreeType error code.</p>
1229<h4>input</h4>
1230<table class="fields">
1231<tr><td class="val" id="error_code">error_code</td><td class="desc">
1232<p>A valid FreeType error code.</p>
1233</td></tr>
1234</table>
1235
1236<h4>return</h4>
1237
1238<p>A C&nbsp;string or <code>NULL</code>, if any error occurred.</p>
1239<h4>note</h4>
1240
1241<p>FreeType has to be compiled with <code>FT_CONFIG_OPTION_ERROR_STRINGS</code> or <code>FT_DEBUG_LEVEL_ERROR</code> to get meaningful descriptions. &lsquo;error_string&rsquo; will be <code>NULL</code> otherwise.</p>
1242<p>Module identification will be ignored:
1243<div class="highlight"><pre><span></span><code>  <span class="n">strcmp</span><span class="p">(</span> <span class="n">FT_Error_String</span><span class="p">(</span>  <span class="n">FT_Err_Unknown_File_Format</span> <span class="p">),</span>
1244          <span class="n">FT_Error_String</span><span class="p">(</span> <span class="n">BDF_Err_Unknown_File_Format</span> <span class="p">)</span> <span class="p">)</span> <span class="o">==</span> <span class="mi">0</span><span class="p">;</span>
1245</code></pre></div></p>
