NAME
       TIFFError,  TIFFSetErrorHandler - library error handling
       interface

SYNOPSIS
       #include <tiffio.h>

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

       #include <stdarg.h>

       typedef  void  (*TIFFErrorHandler)(const  char  *module,
       const char *fmt, va_list ap);
       TIFFErrorHandler    TIFFSetErrorHandler(TIFFErrorHandler
       handler);

DESCRIPTION
       TIFFError  invokes the library-wide error handling func-
       tion to (normally) write an error message to the stderr.
       The fmt parameter is a printf(3S) format string, and any
       number 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.
