您可以使用以下一行程序检索系统上的errno值的完整列表，而不是对所得到的任何错误代码运行perror:

cpp -dM /usr/include/errno.h | grep 'define E' | sort -n -k

我使用以下脚本:

#!/usr/bin/python

import errno
import os
import sys

toname = dict((str(getattr(errno, x)), x) 
              for x in dir(errno) 
              if x.startswith("E"))
tocode = dict((x, getattr(errno, x)) 
              for x in dir(errno) 
              if x.startswith("E"))

for arg in sys.argv[1:]:
    if arg in tocode:
        print arg, tocode[arg], os.strerror(tocode[arg])
    elif arg in toname:
        print toname[arg], arg, os.strerror(int(arg))
    else:
        print "Unknown:", arg

下面是errno -l为可读性重新格式化的输出:

我在Vim中使用tabularise来对齐列:

:%Tab /^[^ ]*\zs /r1l1l1
:%Tab /^ *[^ ]* *[^ ]*\zs /l1

这比在errno.h中查找代码要快，比这里发布的大多数解决方案都要短，并且不需要安装第三方工具:

perl -E 'say $!2 =转变'

收益率

没有这样的文件或目录

错误码2表示“未找到文件/目录”。通常，可以使用perror函数打印人类可读的字符串。

当您使用strace(在Linux上)运行二进制文件时，它将输出系统调用的返回值以及错误数的含义。这可能有时对你有用。
