shtk_cli_error —
Prints a runtime error message and exits
shtk_import cli
shtk_cli_error |
message1 [.. messageN] |
The shtk_cli_error function prints the
given runtime error message to stderr and terminates execution of the script
with a return value of 1. The message can be provided as one or more
arguments as depicted by message1 to
messageN; all arguments are concatenated together into
a single line.
The printed message has the following form, where ‘progname’ is determined by shtk_cli_progname(3):
progname: E: message1 .. messageN
shtk_cli_error should be used to bail out
on erroneous conditions not directly caused by an invalid invocation of the
script. For errors caused directly by the user, such as specifying an
incorrect flag to the program, should be reported using
shtk_cli_usage_error(3).
shtk_cli_error first appeared in
shtk 1.0.
