explain_strtoll_or_die(3)   Library Functions Manual   explain_strtoll_or_die(3)

NAME
     explain_strtoll_or_die  - convert a string to a long integer and report er-
     rors

SYNOPSIS
     #include <libexplain/strtoll.h>
     long long	explain_strtoll_or_die(const  char  *nptr,  char  **endptr,  int
     base);
     long  long  explain_strtoll_on_error(const  char  *nptr, char **endptr, int
     base))

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

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

     nptr    The nptr, exactly as to be passed to the strtoll(3) system call.

     endptr  The endptr, exactly as to be passed to the strtoll(3) system call.

     base    The base, exactly as to be passed to the strtoll(3) system call.

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

     The explain_strtoll_on_error function always returns the  value  return  by
     the wrapped strtoll(3) system call.

EXAMPLE
     The  explain_strtoll_or_die  function  is	intended to be used in a fashion
     similar to the following example:
	    long long result = explain_strtoll_or_die(nptr, endptr, base);

SEE ALSO
     strtoll(3)
	     convert a string to a long integer

     explain_strtoll(3)
	     explain strtoll(3) errors

     exit(2)
	     terminate the calling process
