NAME
upscli_upserror - Get current error number for connection
SYNOPSIS
#include <upsclient.h>
int upscli_upserror(UPSCONN *ups);
DESCRIPTION
The upscli_upserror() function takes the pointer ups to a UPSCONN state
structure and returns the value of the internal error number, if any.
This is typically used to check for certain error values like
UPSCLI_ERR_UNKCOMMAND. That specific error can be used for detecting
older versions of upsd(8) which might not support a given command.
Some error messages have additional meanings, so you should use
upscli_strerror(3) to obtain readable error messages.
RETURN VALUE
The upscli_upserror() function returns one of the UPSCLI_ERR_* values
from upsclient.h, or 0 if no error has occurred.
SEE ALSO
upscli_readline(3), upscli_sendline(3), upscli_strerror(3)
