Detailed Description

Error handling class.

Library: xviews or winviews or mviews (mutually exclusive)

Rogue Wave Views provides an error message mechanism based on the IlvError class. A default IlvError instance is automatically created for every application. This class implements warning and fatal by simply printing out the message parameter. You can derive this class and replace the default error handler by your subclass.
Two global functions get and set the current error handler: IlvGetErrorHandler and IlvSetErrorHandler.
To make Rogue Wave Views actually call the error handler, each error message should be sent through one of these global functions: IlvWarning and IlvFatalError.
