01944 In this example, if an error was generated in one of the prjset() functions,
01945 wcsperr() would print an error traceback starting with wcsset(), then
01946 celset(), and finally the particular projection-setting function that
01947 generated the error. For each of them it would print the status return value,
01948 function name, source file, line number, and an error message which may be
01949 more specific and informative than the general error messages reported in the
01950 first example. For example, in response to a deliberately generated error,
01951 the @c twcs test program, which tests wcserr among other things, produces a
01952 traceback similar to this:
01953 @verbatim
01954 ERROR 5 in wcsset() at line 1564 of file wcs.c:
01955 Invalid parameter value.
01956 ERROR 2 in celset() at line 196 of file cel.c:
01957 Invalid projection parameters.
01958 ERROR 2 in bonset() at line 5727 of file prj.c:
01959 Invalid parameters for Bonne's projection.
01960 @endverbatim
01961
01962 Each of the @ref structs "structs" in @ref overview "WCSLIB" includes a
01963 pointer, called @a err, to a wcserr struct. When an error occurs, a struct is
01964 allocated and error information stored in it. The wcserr pointers and the
01965 @ref memory "memory" allocated for them are managed by the routines that
01966 manage the various structs such as wcsini() and wcsfree().
01967
01968 wcserr messaging is an opt-in system enabled via wcserr_enable(), as in the
01969 example above. If enabled, when an error occurs it is the user's
01970 responsibility to free the memory allocated for the error message using
01971 wcsfree(), celfree(), prjfree(), etc. Failure to do so before the struct goes
01972 out of scope will result in memory leaks (if execution continues beyond the
01973 error).
