_RTC_SetErrorFuncW

Designates a function as the handler for reporting run-time error checks (RTCs).

_RTC_error_fnW _RTC_SetErrorFuncW(
   _RTC_error_fnW function 
);

Parameters

  • function
    The address of the function that will handle run-time error checks.

Return Value

The previously defined error function. If there is no previously defined function, returns NULL.

Remarks

Use only _RTC_SetErrorFuncW in new code. _RTC_SetErrorFunc is only included in the library for backward compatibility.

Make sure that the address you pass to _RTC_SetErrorFuncW is that of a valid error handling function.

If an error has been assigned a type of –1 with _RTC_SetErrorType, the error handler function is not called.

Before you can call this function, you must first call one of the run-time error check initialization functions; see Using Run-Time Checks without the C Run-Time Library

_RTC_error_fnW is defined as follows:

typedef int (__cdecl *_RTC_error_fnW)(int errorType**, const wchar_t *filename, int** linenumber**, const wchar_t *moduleName, const wchar_t *format, ...);**

where:

  • errorType
    The type of error specified by _RTC_SetErrorType.

  • filename
    The source file where the failure occurred or null if no debug information is available.

  • linenumber
    The line in filename where the failure occurred or 0 if no debug information is available.

  • moduleName
    The DLL or executable name where the failure occurred.

  • format
    printf style string to display an error message, using the remaining parameters. The first argument of the VA_ARGLIST is the RTC Error number that occurred.

For an example of using _RTC_error_fnW, see Customizing CRT Run-Time Error Checking.
