NAME

       explain_strcoll_or_die - compare strings using current locale and report errors

SYNOPSIS

       #include <libexplain/strcoll.h>
       int explain_strcoll_or_die(const char *s1, const char *s2);
       int explain_strcoll_on_error(const char *s1, const char *s2);

DESCRIPTION

       The explain_strcoll_or_die function is used to call the strcoll(3) system call. On failure
       an explanation will be printed to stderr, obtained from the  explain_strcoll(3)  function,
       and then the process terminates by calling exit(EXIT_FAILURE).

       The  explain_strcoll_on_error  function  is  used  to  call the strcoll(3) system call. On
       failure an explanation will be printed to stderr,  obtained  from  the  explain_strcoll(3)
       function, but still returns to the caller.

       s1      The s1, exactly as to be passed to the strcoll(3) system call.

       s2      The s2, exactly as to be passed to the strcoll(3) system call.

RETURN VALUE

       The  explain_strcoll_or_die  function  only  returns  on  success, see strcoll(3) for more
       information. On failure, prints an explanation and exits, it does not return.

       The explain_strcoll_on_error function always returns  the  value  return  by  the  wrapped
       strcoll(3) system call.

EXAMPLE

       The  explain_strcoll_or_die  function  is  intended to be used in a fashion similar to the
       following example:
              int result = explain_strcoll_or_die(s1, s2);

       explain_strcoll(3)

       exit(2) terminate the calling process
