pbs_geterrmsg(3B)

💖 NAME 💖

okay so bestie, welcome to pbs_geterrmsg(3B) from the PBS manual ✨ — this one is literally here to get the error message for the last pbs batch operation 🫶

✨ SYNOPSIS ✨

#include <pbs_error.h>
#include <pbs_ifl.h>

char *pbs_geterrmsg(int connect)

🎀 DESCRIPTION 🎀

So this function returns the error message text that’s associated with a batch server request 💅

If the preceding batch interface library call over the connection specified by connect resulted in an error return from the server, there may be an associated text message 👀 If that message exists, this function will return a pointer to the null terminated text string ⭐

🌈 SEE ALSO 🌈

• pbs_connect(3B) — the other page you should peek at, bestie 🦋

💀 DIAGNOSTICS 💀

If an error text message was returned by a server in reply to the previous call to a batch interface library function, pbs_geterrmsg() will return a pointer to it 🔥

Otherwise, pbs_geterrmsg() returns the null pointer 🙈
