3705In this example, if an error was generated in one of the prjset() functions,
3706 wcsperr() would print an error traceback starting with wcsset(), then
3707 celset(), and finally the particular projection-setting function that
3708generated the error. For each of them it would print the status return value,
3709function name, source file, line number, and an error message which may be
3710more specific and informative than the general error messages reported in the
3711first example. For example, in response to a deliberately generated error,
3712the @c twcs test program, which tests wcserr among other things, produces a
3713traceback similar to this:
3714@verbatim
3715ERROR 5 in wcsset() at line 1564 of file wcs.c:
3716 Invalid parameter value.
3717ERROR 2 in celset() at line 196 of file cel.c:
3718 Invalid projection parameters.
3719ERROR 2 in bonset() at line 5727 of file prj.c:
3720 Invalid parameters for Bonne's projection.
3721@endverbatim
3722
3723Each of the @ref structs "structs" in @ref overview "WCSLIB" includes a
3724pointer, called @a err, to a wcserr struct. When an error occurs, a struct is
3725allocated and error information stored in it. The wcserr pointers and the
3726@ref memory "memory" allocated for them are managed by the routines that
3727manage the various structs such as wcsinit() and wcsfree().
3728
3729 wcserr messaging is an opt-in system enabled via wcserr_enable(), as in the
3730example above. If enabled, when an error occurs it is the user's
3731responsibility to free the memory allocated for the error message using
3732 wcsfree(), celfree(), prjfree(), etc. Failure to do so before the struct goes
3733out of scope will result in memory leaks (if execution continues beyond the
3734error).
