+<section id="GUID-6B6D8FFA-DF27-44D5-AEBF-5CCC81D4C39F"><title>Purpose</title> <p>Provides a core set of error codes that
+may be returned by System APIs. They are defined in e32err.h. </p> </section>
+<section id="GUID-B103B96A-B168-4F3C-821B-AF56D0E35643"><title>Description</title> <p>These error codes are used by System
+APIs to indicate common mathematical, file, communications, and client/server
+errors. These error codes are intended to be generic to reflect the fact that
+many error conditions occur for similar reasons in nearly all software components.
+The errors may also be returned by non-System APIs where appropriate. APIs
+may also use additional error codes where the core set is not sufficient. </p> <p>Error
+codes are returned to clients in three circumstances: </p> <ul>
+<li id="GUID-ED9D2507-15E4-528B-AF04-3D0CC21F758D"><p>as a simple <xref href="GUID-7A2A43EC-6125-3BFE-834B-23C37F7B40D5.dita"><apiname>TInt</apiname></xref> return
+value from a synchronous function </p> </li>
+<li id="GUID-50CC41C2-6EA7-5DCB-A4B8-5092A15A1C53"><p>as a leave code from
+a leaving function, which can be caught in a trap harness </p> </li>
+<li id="GUID-2D401685-8851-574B-A672-47DFAF9F3C52"><p>in a request status,
+when an asynchronous request function completes </p> </li>
+</ul> <p>The complete list can be found at e32err.h. This not only describes
+the symbols used in C++ code, but also the numerical values that those symbols
+represent. </p> <p>In the code itself, the core list is defined in the header
+file <filepath>e32err.h</filepath>. </p> </section>
