DWCError DWC_GetLastError( int* errorCode );
DWCError DWC_GetLastErrorEx( int* errorCode, DWCErrorType* errorType );
Gets information about the last communication error. If this goes into an error status, the DWC library stops accepting most functions. To recover from an error status, call the DWC_ClearError function after executing the appropriate error handling process.
The error code that should be displayed when the application generates an error is returned to the buffer indicated by the pointer to the error code storage destination. Because the error code is returned as a negative value, invert the sign to make it positive before displaying it onscreen.
However, if the error code is 0 or the error process type is DWC_ETYPE_LIGHT, these are game-specific displays, so there is no need to display the error code.
We recommend that you use the DWC_GetLastErrorEx function, which also obtains the error process type, errorType, at the same time.errorType stores the information about the recovery process after an error occurs and the information for displaying the error code, so a fixed error process can be created for each value.
errorCode |
Pointer to the error code storage location. If the error code is not required, specify NULL |
errorType |
Pointer to location where the error processing type is stored. If the error code is not required, specify NULL |
Error codes relating to the GameSpy SDK (the library that uses the features of the GameSpy server) are expressed by summing the three following values:
"Sequence where an error process occurred" + "GameSpy SDK type where the error occurred" + "Detailed error information"
When the FriendsMatch Library is not used, errors associated with the GameSpy SDK will not occur.
