Wrap a function call to F such that it throws an error on failure.
Many functions in the C and POSIX standards return an int
or errno_t
only for the purpose of signaling an error and provide an error code in errno
. This wrapper makes this transparent such that it ensures that the error code is always checked, and if an error occurs the value of errno
is thrown.
- Returns
0
if the call was successful. Never returns if it wasn't.
