explain_utime_or_die − change file times and report errors
#include <libexplain/utime.h>
void explain_utime_or_die(const char *pathname, const struct utimbuf *times);
The explain_utime_or_die function is used to call the utime(2) system call. On failure an explanation will be printed to stderr, obtained from explain_utime(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_utime_or_die(pathname, times);
pathname
The pathname, exactly as to be passed to the utime(2) system call.
times |
The times, exactly as to be passed to the utime(2) system call. |
Returns:
This function only returns on success. On failure, prints an explanation and exits.
change file last access and modification times
explain utime(2) errors
terminate the calling process |
