@appendix Standard Errors
|
|
|
|
Here is the complete list of the error symbols in standard Emacs,
|
|
grouped by concept. The list includes each symbol's message (on the
|
|
@code{error-message} property of the symbol) and a cross reference to a
|
|
description of how the error can occur.
|
|
|
|
Each error symbol has an @code{error-conditions} property that is a
|
|
list of symbols. Normally this list includes the error symbol itself
|
|
and the symbol @code{error}. Occasionally it includes additional
|
|
symbols, which are intermediate classifications, narrower than
|
|
@code{error} but broader than a single error symbol. For example, all
|
|
the errors in accessing files have the condition @code{file-error}.
|
|
|
|
As a special exception, the error symbol @code{quit} does not have the
|
|
condition @code{error}, because quitting is not considered an error.
|
|
|
|
@xref{Errors}, for an explanation of how errors are generated and
|
|
handled.
