explain_realloc_or_die(3)				     Library Functions Manual					 explain_realloc_or_die(3)

NAME

       explain_realloc_or_die - Allocate and free dynamic memory and report errors

SYNOPSIS

       #include <libexplain/realloc.h>
       void explain_realloc_or_die(void *ptr, size_t size);

DESCRIPTION

       The  explain_realloc_or_die  function  is  used	to  call the realloc(3) system call.  On failure an explanation will be printed to stderr,
       obtained from explain_realloc(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:
	      void *new_ptr = explain_realloc_or_die(ptr, size);

       ptr     The ptr, exactly as to be passed to the realloc(3) system call.

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

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

SEE ALSO

	       explain realloc(3) errors

       exit(2) terminate the calling process

NAME

       explain_fwrite_or_die - binary stream output and report errors

SYNOPSIS

       #include <libexplain/fwrite.h>
       size_t explain_fwrite_or_die(const void *ptr, size_t size, size_t nmemb, FILE *fp);

DESCRIPTION

       The  explain_fwrite_or_die  function  is  used  to  call  the  fwrite(3) system call.  On failure an explanation will be printed to stderr,
       obtained from explain_fwrite(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:
	      size_t result = explain_fwrite_or_die(ptr, size, nmemb, fp);

       ptr     The ptr, exactly as to be passed to the fwrite(3) system call.

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

       nmemb   The nmemb, exactly as to be passed to the fwrite(3) system call.

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

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

SEE ALSO

	       explain fwrite(3) errors

       exit(2) terminate the calling process
