Hi,

I was looking to generate a list of error messages out of the source code,
and I noticed a lot of duplication of error messages, many of which are the
same or similar.

Can we not extract the error messages to a single include file or .c file
and access them via enums or something like that?

Then the one source file can be maintained for both.



Regards
