.TH LIBERROR_SAVE_BACKTRACE 3 2019-04-13 liberror
.SH NAME
liberror_save_backtrace \- fetch backtrace and assign it to an error
.SH SYNOPSIS
.nf
#include <liberror.h>
int liberror_save_backtrace(struct liberror_error *\fIerror\fP);
.fi
.PP
Link with
.IR \-lerror .
.SH DESCRIPTION
The
.BR liberror_save_backtrace ()
function fetches the backtrace for the call to the function
and stores it in
.IR error ,
deallocating any already assigned backtrace. If
.I error
is
.IR NULL ,
the backtrace will assigned to the next error that is
assigned to the thread. The
.BR liberror_set_error (3)
function calls this function, so there is no need for the
user to call this function, however, calling this function
before or after (preferably before for better performance)
call the
.BR liberror_set_error (3)
function or any helper function that calls the
.BR liberror_set_error (3)
function will produce a cleaner backtrace.
.PP
.B liberror
only implements a no-operation function that returns 0,
the actual implementation is implemented in the
.BR liberror-backtrace (7)
library.
.SH RETURN VALUE
The
.BR liberror_save_backtrace ()
function returns 0 upon successful completion,
on failure -1 is returned without changing
.IR errno .
.SH ERRORS
.I errno
will never be changed.
