## Topics

### Error codes

[`none`](/documentation/Metal/MTLDynamicLibraryError-swift.struct/none)

An error code that represents the absence of any problems.

[`invalidFile`](/documentation/Metal/MTLDynamicLibraryError-swift.struct/invalidFile)

An error code that indicates an app is using an invalid reference to a library file, typically related to a URL.

[`compilationFailure`](/documentation/Metal/MTLDynamicLibraryError-swift.struct/compilationFailure)

An error code that indicates Metal couldn’t compile a dynamic library.

[`unresolvedInstallName`](/documentation/Metal/MTLDynamicLibraryError-swift.struct/unresolvedInstallName)

An error code that indicates Metal couldn’t resolve the installation name for a new dynamic library.

[`dependencyLoadFailure`](/documentation/Metal/MTLDynamicLibraryError-swift.struct/dependencyLoadFailure)

An error code that indicates a dynamic library couldn’t link to other dynamic libraries.

[`unsupported`](/documentation/Metal/MTLDynamicLibraryError-swift.struct/unsupported)

An error code that indicates the GPU device doesn’t support dynamic libraries.

[`MTLDynamicLibraryError.Code`](/documentation/Metal/MTLDynamicLibraryError-swift.struct/Code)

Error codes that Metal can generate when creating dynamic libraries.
