NAME
       TIFFError,  TIFFSetErrorHandler  -  library error handling
       interface

SYNOPSIS
       #include 

       void TIFFError(const char *module, const char *fmt, ...)

       #include 

       typedef void (*TIFFErrorHandler)(const char *module, const
       char *fmt, va_list ap);
       TIFFErrorHandler TIFFSetErrorHandler(TIFFErrorHandler han-
       dler);

DESCRIPTION
       TIFFError invokes the library-wide error handling function
       to  (normally)  write an error message to the stderr.  The
       fmt parameter is a printf(3S) format string, and any  num-
       ber  arguments  can  be supplied. The module parameter, if
       non-zero, is printed before the message; it  typically  is
       used  to identify the software module in which an error is
       detected.

       Applications that desire to capture control in  the  event
       of an error should use TIFFSetErrorHandler to override the
       default error handler.  A NULL (0) error handling function
       may be installed to suppress error messages.

RETURN VALUES
       TIFFSetErrorHandler  returns  a  reference to the previous
       error handling function.
