MODULE SUMMARY

Behaviour module for reporting SNMP agent errors

DESCRIPTION

This module defines the behaviour of the agent error reporting. A snmpa_error_report compliant module must export the following functions:

  • config_err/2

  • user_err/2

The semantics of them and their exact signatures are explained below.

EXPORTS

config_err(Format, Args) -> void()

Types:

Format = string()
Args = list()

The function is called if an error occurs during the configuration phase, for example if a syntax error is found in a configuration file.

Format and Args are as in io:format(Format, Args).

user_err(Format, Args) -> void()

Types:

Format = string()
Args = list()

The function is called if a user related error occurs at run-time, for example if a user defined instrumentation function returns erroneous.

Format and Args are as in io:format(Format, Args).
