Q.
Is there an function in Novell's C API that is similar to Microsoft's FormatMessageText(), that when passed, an error code and a string buffer will provide the developer with the text describing the error?
A.
Unluckily as far as I know there is no C API for NLMs that will do this. However, there is a Win32 DLL (NWErr32.dll) for that purpose, written by one of our Engineers in Germany. He wrote the DLL and it comes with full (Delphi) source which basically is nothing but a big string table with a case statement. Check the sample area at http://developer.novell.com/support/sample.htm
for information and to download the NWERRDLL.* Originally published in Novell AppNotes
