explain_ac...file_or_die(3) Library Functions Manual explain_ac...file_or_die(3)

NAME
     explain_acl_set_file_or_die - set an ACL by filename and report errors

SYNOPSIS
     #include <libexplain/acl_set_file.h>
     void  explain_acl_set_file_or_die(const  char  *pathname,	acl_type_t type,
     acl_t acl);
     int explain_acl_set_file_on_error(const char  *pathname,  acl_type_t  type,
     acl_t acl);

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

     The  explain_acl_set_file_on_error   function   is   used	 to   call   the
     acl_set_file(3)  system  call. On failure an explanation will be printed to
     stderr, obtained from the explain_acl_set_file(3) function, but  still  re-
     turns to the caller.

     pathname
	     The pathname, exactly as to be passed to the acl_set_file(3) system
	     call.

     type    The  type,  exactly  as  to be passed to the acl_set_file(3) system
	     call.

     acl     The acl, exactly as to be	passed	to  the  acl_set_file(3)  system
	     call.

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

     The explain_acl_set_file_on_error function always returns the value  return
     by the wrapped acl_set_file(3) system call.

EXAMPLE
     The  explain_acl_set_file_or_die function is intended to be used in a fash-
     ion similar to the following example:
	    explain_acl_set_file_or_die(pathname, type, acl);

SEE ALSO
     acl_set_file(3)
	     set an ACL by filename

     explain_acl_set_file(3)
	     explain acl_set_file(3) errors
