A quick moan, it's good to have AIAT/V-Twin back again - but the API really needs work. Returning true/false on success/failure isn't good enough - there needs to be a an API for getting an error code/string.

That's an Apple design decision. CoreFoundation works the same. The party line is something along the lines of:

Write your code so it can cope with all errors and checks
and fails *before* the actual call.
For debugging we're supposed to use the debug versions of
the libs, which supposedly give more information on the
possible errors.
