clnt_perror()

Format

#include <rpc.h>
void
clnt_perror(clnt, s)
CLIENT *clnt;
char *s;

Parameters

clnt: Specifies the pointer to a client handle that was previously obtained using clnt_create(), clntudp_create(), clnttcp_create(), or clntraw_create().
s: Indicates a null or null-terminated character string. If s is nonnull, clnt_perrorerror() prints the string s followed by a colon, followed by a space, followed by the error message, and terminated with a new line. If s is null or points to a null string, just the error message and the new line are output.

Usage

The clnt_perror() call writes a message to the standard error device, indicating why an RPC failed. This procedure should be used after clnt_call() if there is an error.
