NAME
explain_execvp_or_die - execute a file and report errors
SYNOPSIS
#include <libexplain/execvp.h>
void explain_execvp_or_die(const char *pathname, char *const *argv);
DESCRIPTION
The explain_execvp_or_die function is used to call the execvp(3) system call. On failure an explanation will be printed to stderr,
obtained from explain_execvp(3), and then the process terminates by calling exit(EXIT_FAILURE).
This function is intended to be used in a fashion similar to the following example:
explain_execvp_or_die(pathname, argv);
pathname
The pathname, exactly as to be passed to the execvp(3) system call.
argv The argv, exactly as to be passed to the execvp(3) system call.
Returns:
This function only returns on success. On failure, prints an explanation and exits.
SEE ALSO

explain_execvp(3)
