  27. TIFFWarning, TIFFSetWarningHandler \- library warning interface
  28. .SH SYNOPSIS

  31. .BI "void TIFFWarning(const char *" module ", const char *" fmt ", " ... ")"

  38. .SH DESCRIPTION
  39. .I TIFFWarning
  40. invokes the library-wide warning handler function to (normally) write a
  41. warning message to the
  42. .BR stderr .
  43. The
  44. .I fmt
  45. parameter is a
  46. .IR printf (3S)
  47. format string, and any number arguments can be supplied. The
  48. .I module
  49. parameter is interpreted as a string that, if non-zero, should be printed
  50. before the message; it typically is used to identify the software module in
  51. which a warning is detected.
  52. .PP
  53. Applications that desire to capture control in the event of a warning should
  54. use
  55. .IR TIFFSetWarningHandler
  56. to override the default warning handler.
  57. A
  58. .SM NULL
  59. (0) warning handler function may be installed to suppress error messages.
  60. .SH "RETURN VALUES"
  61. .IR TIFFSetWarningHandler
  62. returns a reference to the previous error handling function.
