explain_ac...ext_or_die(3) Library Functions Manual explain_ac...ext_or_die(3) NAME explain_acl_to_text_or_die - convert an ACL to text and report errors SYNOPSIS #include <libexplain/acl_to_text.h> char *explain_acl_to_text_or_die(acl_t acl, ssize_t *len_p); char *explain_acl_to_text_on_error(acl_t acl, ssize_t *len_p); DESCRIPTION The explain_acl_to_text_or_die function is used to call the acl_to_text(3) system call. On failure an explanation will be printed to stderr, obtained from the explain_acl_to_text(3) function, and then the process terminates by calling exit(EXIT_FAILURE). The explain_acl_to_text_on_error function is used to call the acl_to_text(3) system call. On failure an explanation will be printed to stderr, obtained from the explain_acl_to_text(3) function, but still returns to the caller. acl The acl, exactly as to be passed to the acl_to_text(3) system call. len_p The len_p, exactly as to be passed to the acl_to_text(3) system call. RETURN VALUE The explain_acl_to_text_or_die function only returns on success, see acl_to_text(3) for more information. On failure, prints an explanation and exits, it does not return. The explain_acl_to_text_on_error function always returns the value re- turn by the wrapped acl_to_text(3) system call. EXAMPLE The explain_acl_to_text_or_die function is intended to be used in a fashion similar to the following example: char *result = explain_acl_to_text_or_die(acl, len_p); SEE ALSO acl_to_text(3) convert an ACL to text explain_acl_to_text(3) explain acl_to_text(3) errors exit(2) terminate the calling process COPYRIGHT libexplain version 1.3 Copyright (C) 2013 Peter Miller explain_ac...ext_or_die(3)
