const std::string& Xapian::Error::get_context | ( | ) | const [inline] |
Optional context information.
This context is intended for use by Xapian::ErrorHandler (for example so it can know which remote server is unreliable and report the problem and remove that server from those being searched). But it's typically a plain-text string, and so also fit for human consumption.
const char* Xapian::Error::get_error_string | ( | ) | const |
Returns any system error string associated with this exception.
The system error string may come from errno, h_errno (on UNIX), or GetLastError() (on MS Windows). If there is no associated system error string, NULL is returned.
