-NAME
-----
-tep_strerror - Returns a string describing regular errno and tep error number.
-
-SYNOPSIS
---------
-[verse]
---
-*#include <event-parse.h>*
-
-int *tep_strerror*(struct tep_handle pass:[*]_tep_, enum tep_errno _errnum_, char pass:[*]_buf_, size_t _buflen_);
-
---
-DESCRIPTION
------------
-The _tep_strerror()_ function converts tep error number into a human
-readable string.
-The _tep_ argument is trace event parser context. The _errnum_ is a regular
-errno, defined in errno.h, or a tep error number. The string, describing this
-error number is copied in the _buf_ argument. The _buflen_ argument is
-the size of the _buf_.
-
-It as a thread safe wrapper around strerror_r(). The library function has two
-different behaviors - POSIX and GNU specific. The _tep_strerror()_ API always
-behaves as the POSIX version - the error string is copied in the user supplied
-buffer.
-
-RETURN VALUE
-------------
-The _tep_strerror()_ function returns 0, if a valid _errnum_ is passed and the
-string is copied into _buf_. If _errnum_ is not a valid error number,
--1 is returned and _buf_ is not modified.
-
-EXAMPLE
--------
-[source,c]
---
-#include <event-parse.h>
-...
-struct tep_handle *tep = tep_alloc();
-...
-char buf[32];
-char *pool = calloc(1, 128);
-if (tep == NULL) {
- tep_strerror(tep, TEP_ERRNO__MEM_ALLOC_FAILED, buf, 32);
- printf ("The pool is not initialized, %s", buf);
-}
