libcangjie documentation - Error codes

Return values

All functions in libcangjie return int’s. Which value they return depends on the success or failure of the execution.

When everything goes right, the function succeeds and returns CANGJIE_OK.

Functions which are supposed get you a list of characters will return CANGJIE_NOCHARS when no characters correspond to your query.

If the libcangjie database could not be opened for some reason, then CANGJIE_DBOPEN is returned.

If an error happens when querying the database, the function returns CANGJIE_DBERROR.

When memory could not be allocated, the function will return CANGJIE_NOMEM.

Finally, functions will return CANGJIE_INVALID when they are passed an invalid input.

Of course, you must include the cangjie.h header in order to have these defined.
