Win32 Error Code Utility

M. Gallant 07/22/2002

This applet displays the win32 error MessageText, (identical to the WinError.h entries), for a single, or a range (maximum 1000) of error codes specified. The first code (Error Code 1) can be entered as a decimal (including negative integer values) or hex value (e.g. 0x80040209). The Java applet retrieves the win32 api error code information by calling
static String com.ms.dll.Win32Exception.getErrorDescription(int errorcode)
Each listing shows the decimal signed-integer code value, followed by the corresponding hex code and MessageText. Undefined errors are identified as Unknown error.
