explain_accept_or_die(3)   Library Functions Manual   explain_accept_or_die(3)

NAME
       explain_accept_or_die  -	accept a connection on a socket	and report er-
       rors

SYNOPSIS
       #include	<libexplain/accept.h>
       int  explain_accept_or_die(int  fildes,	struct	sockaddr   *sock_addr,
       socklen_t *sock_addr_size);

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

       This  function  is intended to be used in a fashion similar to the fol-
       lowing example:
	      int fd = explain_accept_or_die(fildes, sock_addr,	sock_addr_size);

       fildes  The fildes, exactly as to be passed  to	the  accept(2)	system
	       call.

       sock_addr
	       The  sock_addr, exactly as to be	passed to the accept(2)	system
	       call.

       sock_addr_size
	       The sock_addr_size, exactly as to be passed  to	the  accept(2)
	       system call.

       Returns:
	       This  function  only returns on success,	see accept(2) for more
	       information.  On	failure, prints	an explanation and exits.
