t.p.w._ErrorFormatter(object) : class documentation

Part of twisted.python.win32 View Source View In Hierarchy

Formatter for Windows error messages.

Instance Variables	winError	A callable which takes one integer error number argument and returns an `exceptions.WindowsError` instance for that error (like `ctypes.WinError`).
	formatMessage	A callable which takes one integer error number argument and returns a `str` giving the message for that error (like `win32api.FormatMessage`).
	errorTab	A mapping from integer error numbers to `str` messages which correspond to those erorrs (like `socket.errorTab`).

Method	__init__	Undocumented
Class Method	fromEnvironment	Get as many of the platform-specific error translation objects as possible and return an instance of `cls` created with them.
Method	formatError	Returns the string associated with a Windows error message, such as the ones found in socket.error.

def __init__(self, WinError, FormatMessage, errorTab): (source)

Undocumented

@classmethod
def fromEnvironment(cls): (source)

Get as many of the platform-specific error translation objects as possible and return an instance of cls created with them.

def formatError(self, errorcode): (source)

Returns the string associated with a Windows error message, such as the ones found in socket.error.

Attempts direct lookup against the win32 API via ctypes and then pywin32 if available), then in the error table in the socket module, then finally defaulting to os.strerror.

Parameters	errorcode	the Windows error code (type: `int` )
Returns	The error message string (type: `str` )
