The functions described + below may be used to set and query fields in this structure. The + <structfield>name</structfield> field contains a short identifier + of an error. It should follow the rules for error names described + in the D-Bus specification, subsection <ulink + url="http://dbus.freedesktop.org/doc/dbus-specification.html#message-protocol-names">Valid + Names</ulink>. A number of common, standardized error names are + described in + <citerefentry><refentrytitle>sd-bus-errors</refentrytitle><manvolnum>3</manvolnum></citerefentry>, + but additional domain-specific errors may be defined by + applications. The <structfield>message</structfield> field usually + contains a human-readable string describing the details, but might + be NULL. An unset <structname>sd_bus_error</structname> structure + should have both fields initialized to NULL. Set an error + structure to <constant>SD_BUS_ERROR_NULL</constant> in order to + reset both fields to NULL. When no longer necessary, resources + held by the <structname>sd_bus_error</structname>structure should + be destroyed with <function>sd_bus_error_free()</function>.</para> + + <para><function>sd_bus_error_set()</function> sets an error + structure to the specified name and message strings. The strings + will be copied into internal, newly allocated memory. It is + essential to free the error structure again when it is not + required anymore (see above). The function will return an + <varname>errno</varname>-like negative value (see <citerefentry + project='man-pages'><refentrytitle>errno</refentrytitle><manvolnum>3</manvolnum></citerefentry>) + determined from the specified error name. Various well-known + D-Bus errors are converted to well-known <varname>errno</varname> + counterparts, and the other ones to <constant>-EIO</constant>. See + <citerefentry><refentrytitle>sd-bus-errors</refentrytitle><manvolnum>3</manvolnum></citerefentry> + for a list of well-known error names. Additional error mappings + may be defined with + <citerefentry><refentrytitle>sd_bus_error_add_map</refentrytitle><manvolnum>3</manvolnum></citerefentry>. If + <parameter>e</parameter> is NULL, no error structure is initialized, + but the error is still converted into an + <varname>errno</varname>-style error. If + <parameter>name</parameter> is <constant>NULL</constant>, it is + assumed that no error occurred, and 0 is returned. This means that + this function may be conveniently used in a + <function>return</function> statement. If + <parameter>message</parameter> is NULL, no message is set. This + call can fail if no memory may be allocated for the name and + message strings, in which case an + <constant>SD_BUS_ERROR_NO_MEMORY</constant> error might be set + instead and -ENOMEM be returned.

The + sign of the specified error number is ignored. The absolute value + is used implicitly. The call always returns a negative value, for + convenient usage in <function>return</function> statements.
