explain_fprintf_or_die(3) Library Functions Manual explain_fprintf_or_die(3)NAME
explain_fprintf_or_die - formatted output conversion and report errors
SYNOPSIS
#include <libexplain/fprintf.h>
int explain_fprintf_or_die(FILE *fp, const char *format, ...);
int explain_fprintf_on_error(FILE *fp, const char *format, ...);
DESCRIPTION
The explain_fprintf_or_die function is used to call the fprintf(3) system call. On failure an explanation will be printed to stderr,
obtained from the explain_fprintf(3) function, and then the process terminates by calling exit(EXIT_FAILURE).
The explain_fprintf_on_error function is used to call the fprintf(3) system call. On failure an explanation will be printed to stderr,
obtained from the explain_fprintf(3) function, but still returns to the caller.
fp The fp, exactly as to be passed to the fprintf(3) system call.
format The format, exactly as to be passed to the fprintf(3) system call.
RETURN VALUE
The explain_fprintf_or_die function only returns on success, see fprintf(3) for more information. On failure, prints an explanation and
exits, it does not return.
The explain_fprintf_on_error function always returns the value return by the wrapped fprintf(3) system call.
EXAMPLE
The explain_fprintf_or_die function is intended to be used in a fashion similar to the following example:
int result = explain_fprintf_or_die(fp, format, ...);
SEE ALSO fprintf(3)

Dear all,
I know the use of fprintf and typecasting. But, in the following function call what is the use? why that is type casted to void?
(void) fprintf(stderr, "Enter key: "); (1 Reply)
Could someone explain me the following fprintf format:
fprintf (stderr, _("Try `%s --help' for more information.\n"),
program_name);
Why just not use:
fprintf(stderr, "ry `%s --help' for more information.\n", program_name)
I mean what is _() does? (1 Reply)
Hi folks :)
Can deamonized process access to stderr, stdout?
I 'm trying to display error_num/return value of a function run() in stderr using
fprintf(stderr, "function run() returns = %d", ret_val);
run() is called after deamonizing the process. (1 Reply)
Hi,
I am using fprintf to write few strings toa file which has been opened in write mode.
The syntax is as follows:
printf("Testing 7A.\n");
fprintf(out_screen,"%s|%s|%s|%s|%s|\n",var1,var2,var3,var4,var5);
printf("Testing 8.\n");
When I execute the code It prints "Testing 7A." then... (2 Replies)
