NAME

       remctl_error - Retrieve the error from a failed remctl operation

SYNOPSIS

       #include <remctl.h>

       const char *remctl_error(struct remctl *r);

DESCRIPTION

       remctl_error() returns the error from a previously failed remctl operation.  Its only
       argument is a remctl struct as returned by remctl_new().  If the previous remctl operation
       was successful, returns the constant string "No error".

       The caller may not modify the returned string.  The string may even be stored in read-only
       memory and attempting to modify it may cause a memory fault.  The returned pointer will be
       invalidated by the next call to any remctl API function with the same client object, other
       than remctl_error().

RETURN VALUE

       remctl_error() returns either the previous error or the constant string "No error".  It
       will never return NULL.
