int ThreadIberr (void);
Returns the value of the thread-specific iberr variable for the current thread.
The global variables ibsta, iberr, ibcnt, and ibcntl are maintained on a process-specific rather than a thread-specific basis. If you call GPIB functions in more than one thread, the values in these global variables are not always reliable.
Status variables analogous to ibsta, iberr, ibcnt, and ibcntl are maintained for each thread. ThreadIberr returns the value of the thread-specific iberr variable.
If you do not use multiple threads, ThreadIberr returns a value identical to the value of the iberr global variable.
None.
Name | Type | Description |
---|---|---|
threadSpecificError | integer | Most recent GPIB error code for the current thread of execution. The value is meaningful only when ThreadIbsta returns a value with the ERR bit set. |
Defined Constant | Value | Description |
EDVR | 0 | Operating system error. ThreadIbcntl returns the system-specific error code. |
ECIC | 1 | Function requires GPIB-PC to be Controller-In-Charge (CIC). |
ENOL | 2 | No listener on write function. |
EADR | 3 | GPIB-PC addressed incorrectly. |
EARG | 4 | Invalid function call argument. |
ESAC | 5 | GPIB-PC not system controller as
required. |
EABO | 6 | I/O operation aborted. |
ENEB | 7 | Non-existent GPIB-PC interface. |

EOIP | 10 | I/O started before previous operation completed. |
ECAP | 11 | Unsupported feature. |
EFSO | 12 | File system error. |
EBUS | 14 | Command error during device call. |
ESTB | 15 | Serial poll status byte lost. |
ESRQ | 16 | SRQ stuck in the asserted state. |
ETAB | 20 | Device list error during a FindLstn or FindRQS call. |
ELCK | 21 | Address or board is locked. |
