explain_fseeko_or_die(3)    Library Functions Manual	explain_fseeko_or_die(3)

NAME
     explain_fseeko_or_die - seek to or report file position and report errors

SYNOPSIS
     #include <libexplain/fseeko.h>
     void explain_fseeko_or_die(FILE *fp, off_t offset, int whence);
     int explain_fseeko_on_error(FILE *fp, off_t offset, int whence);

DESCRIPTION
     The  explain_fseeko_or_die  function  is  used to call the fseeko(3) system
     call. On failure an explanation will be printed to  stderr,  obtained  from
     the  explain_fseeko(3) function, and then the process terminates by calling
     exit(EXIT_FAILURE).

     The explain_fseeko_on_error function is used to call the  fseeko(3)  system
     call.  On	failure  an explanation will be printed to stderr, obtained from
     the explain_fseeko(3) function, but still returns to the caller.

     fp      The fp, exactly as to be passed to the fseeko(3) system call.

     offset  The offset, exactly as to be passed to the fseeko(3) system call.

     whence  The whence, exactly as to be passed to the fseeko(3) system call.

RETURN VALUE
     The explain_fseeko_or_die function only returns on success,  see  fseeko(3)
     for  more information. On failure, prints an explanation and exits, it does
     not return.

     The explain_fseeko_on_error function always returns the value return by the
     wrapped fseeko(3) system call.

EXAMPLE
     The explain_fseeko_or_die function is intended to be used in a fashion sim-
     ilar to the following example:
	    explain_fseeko_or_die(fp, offset, whence);
