[jira] [Created] (HDFS-9627) libhdfs++: Add a mechanism to retrieve human readable error messages through the C API

-------------------------------------

             Summary: libhdfs++: Add a mechanism to retrieve human readable error messages through the C API
                 Key: HDFS-9627
                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/HDFS-9627
             Project: Hadoop HDFS
          Issue Type: Sub-task
            Reporter: James Clampffer
            Assignee: James Clampffer


Libhdfs doesn't have this but libhdfs3 has a "hdfsGetLastErrorString" function.  The C API needs to be able to pass out error messages that are more specific than what errno can provide.

This functionality should be exposed via a new public header in order to keep hdfs.h consistent with the libhdfs header.
