Important problem!! I can think of two solutions (others may think of more):

1) System wide assignments of error codes
2) A system, for example a single ioc, provides a server that, given an
   error code, provides a character string describing the message.

I like 2).

I agree.

Error codes and system wide error handler is another topic we have talked about
for several years but never progressed past the existing vxWorks error codes
and the system wide log file.
We would all benefit if a nice solution is designed and implemented.
