Library summary

Error print routines.

Description

This module contains some error printing routines taken from "Advanced Programming in the UNIX Environment" by W. Richard Stevens.

These functions are all called in the same manner as printf(), that is, with a string containing format specifiers followed by a list of corresponding arguments. All output from these functions is to stderr.

Exports

Types:

const char *FormatStr;

The message provided by the caller is printed. This function is simply a wrapper for fprintf().

void erl_err_quit(FormatStr, ... )
