### `virErrorLevel`

Indicates the level of an error

    enum virErrorLevel {

VIR_ERR_WARNING | = | 1 (0x1) | A simple warning
VIR_ERR_ERROR | = | 2 (0x2) | An error

    }

### `virErrorNumber`

The full list of errors the library can generate This list should remain stable, with all additions placed at the end since libvirt 0.1.0. There is one exception: values added between libvirt 0.7.1 and libvirt 0.7.7 (VIR_WAR_NO_SECRET through VIR_ERR_MIGRATE_PERSIST_FAILED) were inadvertently relocated by four positions in 0.8.0. If you suspect version mismatch between a server and client, then you can decipher values as follows: switch (err.code) { case 60: // no way to tell VIR_WAR_NO_SECRET apart from VIR_WAR_NO_NWFILTER, // but both are very similar warnings break; case 61: case 62: case 63: if (err.domain != VIR_FROM_NWFILTER) err.code += 4; break; case 64: if (err.domain == VIR_FROM_QEMU) err.code += 4; break; case 65: if (err.domain == VIR_FROM_XEN) err.code += 4; break; default: }

### `virErrorPtr`

    typedef virError * virErrorPtr;

### Functions

### `virConnCopyLastError`

    int	virConnCopyLastError		(virConnectPtr conn,
    					 virErrorPtr to)

Copy the content of the last error caught on that connection

This method is not protected against access from multiple threads. In a multi-threaded application, always use the global virGetLastError() API which is backed by thread local storage.

If the connection object was discovered to be invalid by an API call, then the error will be reported against the global error object.

Since 0.6.0, all errors reported in the per-connection object are also duplicated in the global error object. As such an application can always use virGetLastError(). This method remains for backwards compatibility.

One will need to free the result with virResetError()

conn
  pointer to the hypervisor connection
to
  target to receive the copy
Returns
  0 if no error was found and the error code otherwise and -1 in case of parameter error.

### `virConnGetLastError`

    virErrorPtr	virConnGetLastError	(virConnectPtr conn)

Provide a pointer to the last error caught on that connection

This method is not protected against access from multiple threads. In a multi-threaded application, always use the global virGetLastError() API which is backed by thread local storage.

If the connection object was discovered to be invalid by an API call, then the error will be reported against the global error object.

Since 0.6.0, all errors reported in the per-connection object are also duplicated in the global error object. As such an application can always use virGetLastError(). This method remains for backwards compatibility.

conn
  pointer to the hypervisor connection
Returns
  a pointer to the last error or NULL if none occurred.

### `virConnResetLastError`

    void	virConnResetLastError		(virConnectPtr conn)

The error object is kept in thread local storage, so separate threads can safely access this concurrently.

Reset the last error caught on that connection

conn
  pointer to the hypervisor connection

### `virConnSetErrorFunc`

    void	virConnSetErrorFunc		(virConnectPtr conn,
    					 void * userData,
    					 virErrorFunc handler)

Set a connection error handling function, if `handler` is NULL it will reset to default which is to pass error back to the global library handler.

conn
  pointer to the hypervisor connection
userData
  pointer to the user data provided in the handler callback
handler
  the function to get called in case of error or NULL

### `virCopyLastError`

    int	virCopyLastError		(virErrorPtr to)

Copy the content of the last error caught at the library level

The error object is kept in thread local storage, so separate threads can safely access this concurrently.

One will need to free the result with virResetError()

to
  target to receive the copy
Returns
  error code or -1 in case of parameter error.

### `virDefaultErrorFunc`

    void	virDefaultErrorFunc		(virErrorPtr err)

Default routine reporting an error to stderr.

err
  pointer to the error.

### `virErrorFunc`

    typedef void	(*virErrorFunc		)	(void * userData,
    					 virErrorPtr error)

Signature of a function to use when there is an error raised by the library.

userData
  user provided data for the error callback
error
  the error being raised.

### `virFreeError`

    void	virFreeError			(virErrorPtr err)

Resets and frees the given error.

err
  error to free

### `virGetLastError`

    virErrorPtr	virGetLastError		(void)

Provide a pointer to the last error caught at the library level

The error object is kept in thread local storage, so separate threads can safely access this concurrently.

Returns
  a pointer to the last error or NULL if none occurred.

### `virGetLastErrorCode`

    int	virGetLastErrorCode		(void)

Get the most recent error code (enum virErrorNumber).

Returns
  the most recent error code, or VIR_ERR_OK if none is set.

### `virGetLastErrorDomain`

    int	virGetLastErrorDomain		(void)

Get the most recent error domain (enum virErrorDomain).

Returns
  a numerical value of the most recent error's origin, or VIR_FROM_NONE if none is set.

### `virGetLastErrorMessage`

    const char *	virGetLastErrorMessage	(void)

Get the most recent error message

Returns
  the most recent error message string in this thread, or a generic message if none is set

### `virResetError`

    void	virResetError			(virErrorPtr err)

Reset the error being pointed to

err
  pointer to the virError to clean up

### `virResetLastError`

    void	virResetLastError		(void)

Reset the last error caught at the library level.

The error object is kept in thread local storage, so separate threads can safely access this concurrently, only resetting their own error object.

### `virSaveLastError`

    virErrorPtr	virSaveLastError	(void)

Save the last error into a new error object. On success, errno is unchanged; on failure, errno is ENOMEM.

Returns
  a pointer to the copied error or NULL if allocation failed. It is the caller's responsibility to free the error with virFreeError().

### `virSetErrorFunc`

    void	virSetErrorFunc			(void * userData,
    					 virErrorFunc handler)

Set a library global error handling function, if `handler` is NULL, it will reset to default printing on stderr. The error raised there are those for which no handler at the connection level could caught.

userData
  pointer to the user data provided in the handler callback
handler
  the function to get called in case of error or NULL
