Error Categories

 
 

This page lists all error, warning and informational diagnostic codes and messages produced by libSBML, the software underlying the Online SBML Validator. The diagnostics whose code numbers are between 10000 and 90000 are defined in the SBML specification documents; the ones with numbers below 10000 and above 90000 are specific to libSBML and are not defined by SBML.

Internal error

This class of errors indicates a problem involving the libSBML software itself or the underlying XML parser. This almost certainly indicates a software defect (i.e., bug) in libSBML.

Please report occurrences of this to the libSBML developers.

Operating system

A problem reported by the operating system, such as an inability to read or write a file. This indicates something that is not a program error but is outside of the control of libSBML.
