DLEROR(3)               BSD Library Functions Manual               DLEROR(3)

NAME
     dlerror -- get diagnostic information

SYNOPSIS
     ##include <>

     const char*
     dlerror(void);

DESCRIPTION
     dlerror() returns a null-terminated character string describing the last
     error that occurred on this thread during a call to dlopen(), dlsym(), or
     dlclose().  If no such error has occurred, dlerror() returns a null
     pointer.  At each call to dlerror(), the error indication is reset.  Thus
     in the case of two calls to dlerror(), where the second call follows the
     first immediately, the second call will always return a null pointer.
