explain_getgrouplist_or_die - get list of groups and report errors

Description

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

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

       user    The user, exactly as to be passed to the getgrouplist(3) system call.

       group   The group, exactly as to be passed to the getgrouplist(3) system call.

       groups  The groups, exactly as to be passed to the getgrouplist(3) system call.

       ngroups The ngroups, exactly as to be passed to the getgrouplist(3) system call.

Example

       The  explain_getgrouplist_or_die  function  is  intended to be used in a fashion similar to the following
       example:
              explain_getgrouplist_or_die(user, group, groups, ngroups);

Name

       explain_getgrouplist_or_die - get list of groups and report errors
