<sys/errno.h> for Unix error codes.

In general, negative numbers under a few thousand are Carbon errors and will be in MacErrors.h. Small positive numbers (1 to 50 or so) are Unix errors in <sys/errno.h>. Cocoa and CoreFoundation often use error structs or objects with different 'domains' each with their own set of error codes, which will be declared in the same header as the API that generates them.

So it totally depends on what APIs you're using. You'll have to be more specific (like, what function/method returns the error?).
