SYNOPSIS

#include <libexplain/getcwd.h>

void explain_getcwd_or_die(char *buf, size_t size);

DESCRIPTION

The explain_getcwd_or_die function is used to call the getcwd(2) system call. On failure an explanation will be printed to stderr, obtained from explain_getcwd(3), and then the process terminates by calling exit(EXIT_FAILURE).

This function is intended to be used in a fashion similar to the following example:

explain_getcwd_or_die(buf, size);

buf

The buf, exactly as to be passed to the getcwd(2) system call.

size

The size, exactly as to be passed to the getcwd(2) system call.

Returns:

This function only returns on success. On failure, prints an explanation and exits.
