explain_rename_or_die(3)				     Library Functions Manual					  explain_rename_or_die(3)

NAME

       explain_rename_or_die - change the name of a file and report errors

SYNOPSIS

       #include <libexplain/rename.h>
       void explain_rename_or_die(const char *oldpath, const char *newpath);

DESCRIPTION

       The  explain_rename_or_die  function  is  used  to  call  the  rename(2) system call.  On failure an explanation will be printed to stderr,
       obtained from explain_rename(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_rename_or_die(oldpath, newpath);

       oldpath The oldpath, exactly as to be passed to the rename(2) system call.

       newpath The newpath, exactly as to be passed to the rename(2) system call.

       Returns:
	       This function only returns on success.  On failure, prints an explanation and exits.

SEE ALSO

	       change the name or location of a file

       explain_rename(3)
	       explain rename(2) errors
