【C语言天天练（二三）】errno变量

标签：errno变量

引言：

       在C编程中，errno是个不可缺少的变量，特别是在网络编程中。如果你没有用过errno，那只能说明你的程序不够健壮。 为什么会使用errno呢？这是系统库设计中的一个无奈之举，他更多的是个技巧，而不是架构上的需要。我们观察下函数结构，可以发现，函数的参数返回值只有一个，这个返回值一般可以携带错误信息，比如负数表示错误，而正数表述正确的返回值，比如recv函数。但是对于一些返回指针的函数，如：char *get_str()；这个方法显然没有用的。NULL可以表示发生错误，但是发生什么错误却毫无办法。于是，errno就诞生了。全局变量errno可以存放错误原因，当错误发生时，函数的返回值是可以通过非法值来提示错误的发生。

问题：

        很多库函数，当执行失败时会通过一个名称为errno的外部变量，通知程序该函数调用失败。该如何利用errno这个外部变量检查错误发生的原因呢？

解决办法：

错误的方法一：

/*调用库函数*/
if(errno)
             /*处理错误*/

错误原因：在库函数调用没有失败的情况下，并没有强制要求库函数一定要设置errno为0，这样errno的值可能是前一个执行失败的库函数设置的值。程序器启动的似乎errno的初始值是零。许多库函数在遭遇一些确定的错误以后将保证设置它为某个确定的非零值。当这些函数运行成功的时候它将不会修改 errno的值；因此，当一个成功的调用以后errno的值不必要是零，而且你不能用errno来判断一次调用是否失败了。正确的做法是检查每个函数报道的结果，如果调用失败了，再来检查errno。

错误的方法二：

errno = 0;
/*调用库函数*/
if(errno)
             /*处理错误*/

错误原因：库函数在调用成功时，既没有强制要求对errno清零，但同时也没有禁止设置errno。

正确方法：

/*调用库函数*/
if(返回的错误值)
           检查errno
