Method

GimpPDBget_last_error

unstable since: 3.0

Declaration [src]

const gchar*
gimp_pdb_get_last_error (
  GimpPDB* pdb
)

Description [src]

Retrieves the error message from the last procedure call.

If a procedure call fails, then it might pass an error message with the return values. Plug-ins that are using the libgimp C wrappers don’t access the procedure return values directly. Thus GimpPDB stores the error message and makes it available with this function. The next procedure call unsets the error message again.

The returned string is owned by pdb and must not be freed or modified.

Available since: 3.0

Return value

Type: const gchar*

The error message.

The data is owned by the instance.
The value is a NUL terminated UTF-8 string.
