This function does not support the error values that are specified by POSIX
|
|
but not defined by the system, on some platforms:
|
|
OpenBSD 4.0, OSF/1 5.1, NonStop Kernel, Cygwin 1.5.x, mingw.
|
|
@item
|
|
This function fails to return a string for out-of-range integers on
|
|
some platforms:
|
|
HP-UX 11, IRIX 6.5, Solaris 8.
|
|
(This is not a POSIX violation, but can still cause bugs because most programs
|
|
call @code{strerror} without setting and testing @code{errno}.)
