explain_setvbuf_or_die(3)   Library Functions Manual   explain_setvbuf_or_die(3)

NAME
     explain_setvbuf_or_die - stream buffering operations and report errors

SYNOPSIS
     #include <libexplain/setvbuf.h>
     void explain_setvbuf_or_die(FILE *fp, char *data, int mode, size_t size);
     int explain_setvbuf_on_error(FILE *fp, char *data, int mode, size_t size);

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

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

     fp      The fp, exactly as to be passed to the setvbuf(3) system call.

     data    The data, exactly as to be passed to the setvbuf(3) system call.

     mode    The mode, exactly as to be passed to the setvbuf(3) system call.

     size    The size, exactly as to be passed to the setvbuf(3) system call.

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

     The  explain_setvbuf_on_error  function  always returns the value return by
     the wrapped setvbuf(3) system call.

EXAMPLE
     The explain_setvbuf_or_die function is intended to be  used  in  a  fashion
     similar to the following example:
	    explain_setvbuf_or_die(fp, data, mode, size);
