explain_lchown_or_die(3) Library Functions Manual explain_lchown_or_die(3) NAME explain_lchown_or_die - change ownership of a file and report errors SYNOPSIS #include <libexplain/lchown.h> void explain_lchown_or_die(const char *pathname, int owner, int group); DESCRIPTION The explain_lchown_or_die function is used to call the lchown(2) system call. On failure an explanation will be printed to stderr, obtained from explain_lchown(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: explain_lchown_or_die(pathname, owner, group); pathname The pathname, exactly as to be passed to the lchown(2) system call. owner The owner, exactly as to be passed to the lchown(2) system call. group The group, exactly as to be passed to the lchown(2) system call. Returns: This function only returns on success. On failure, prints an explanation and exits.
