**	Each error classification defines a range of up to 0xffff error codes.
**
**	The top word of an msgERR is the classification, the low byte is an error 
**	offset within that classification.
**
**	For diagnostic purposes, each classification can register it's strings for GetErrorString
**	support.  These are NOT nationalizable strings; the string tables are autogenerated from the 
**	MsgError() macro machinery, not stored in .rc files.  They're intended for use in debugging,
**	logfiles, etc.

/*
** RegisterErrorClass (msgErrorClass, pFn)
**
**	Register a function to return error-strings in the given class.
**
**	(Note:  this could be best done by automatically building a linked list of 
**			diagnostic routines/classes - by simply using a C++ class for error 
**			classes, and a static constructor to link each class into the queue.
**			However, we've had problems with static constructors within DLL's
**			that use MFC and DLL's on NT - so we're avoiding them for now.)
**
**	See dberror.cpp (in the database) for an example of an auto-generated diagnostic
**	map.  The error-code to string mapping function implementation can be generated 
**	automatically, but the client must register the function manually.
**
**	There is no limit on how many ranges a given diagnostic function might handle.  
**	The function must be registered once for each class, of course.
**
**	Normally there will be a function for every specific .h that defines error codes
**	(whether that .h defines one or more classes of error codes).  For example, 
**	dberror.h defines 3 error class ranges, so the DB registers one diagnostic function 
**	that handles those 3 classes accordingly.
