NAME         top

       pmiErrStr, pmiErrStr_r - convert a LOGIMPORT error code into a
       string

C SYNOPSIS         top

       #include 
       #include 

       const char *pmiErrStr(int code);
       char *pmiErrStr_r(int code, char buf, int buflen);

       cc ... -lpcp_import -lpcp

Perl SYNOPSIS         top

       use PCP::LogImport;

       pmiErrStr($code);

DESCRIPTION         top

       As part of the Performance Co-Pilot Log Import API (see
       LOGIMPORT(3)), pmiErrStr translates error codes returned from the
       other routines in the Log Import library into printable error
       messages.

       code would normally have a negative value.  As a special case, if
       code is -1 then the error code returned from the last routine
       called in the LOGIMPORT library for this context will be used.

       The pmiErrStr_r function does the same, but stores the result in a
       user-supplied buffer buf of length buflen, which should have room
       for at least PMI_MAXERRMSGLEN bytes.

       The set of possible error codes and messages is all those defined
       by pmErrStr(3) and PCPIntro(3), plus the additional ones defined
       in  with error code names of the form PMI_ERR_....
