The GnomeVFSResult enumeration

All the GNOME VFS operations return a result value of type GnomeVFSResult that represents the result of the operation. GnomeVFSURI is a numeric enumeration:

    enum _GnomeVFSResult {
        GNOME_VFS_OK,
        GNOME_VFS_ERROR_NOTFOUND,
        GNOME_VFS_ERROR_GENERIC,
        GNOME_VFS_ERROR_INTERNAL,
        GNOME_VFS_ERROR_BADPARAMS,
        GNOME_VFS_ERROR_NOTSUPPORTED,
        GNOME_VFS_ERROR_IO,
        GNOME_VFS_ERROR_CORRUPTEDDATA,
        /* ... */
        GNOME_VFS_NUM_ERRORS
    };
    typedef enum _GnomeVFSResult
      GnomeVFSResult;

Just like the Unix errno variable, you can get a string description from a GnomeVFSURI value by using the following function:

  const gchar *gnome_vfs_result_to_string
    (GnomeVFSResult result)
