.TH explain_filename_from_fildes 3
.SH NAME
explain_filename_from_fildes \- obtain filename from file descriptor
.if require_index \{
.XX "explain_filename_from_fildes(3)" "obtain filename from file descriptor"
.\}
.SH SYNOPSIS
#include <libexplain/filename.h>
.sp 0.3
int explain_filename_from_fildes(int fildes, char *data, size_t data_size);
.sp 0.3
int explain_filename_from_stream(FILE *stream, char *data, size_t data_size);
.SH DESCRIPTION
The \f[I]explain_filename_from_fildes\fP function may be used to
obtain the name of the file associated with the file descriptor.
.PP
The \f[I]explain_filename_from_stream\fP function may be used to
obtain the name of the file associated with a file stream.
.PP
The filename is returned in the array pointed to by \f[I]data\fP.
The filename will always be NUL terminated.
If the returned filename is longer than \f[I]data_size\fP, it will be silently
truncated; a size of at least (PATH_MAX + 1) is suggested.
.PP
On success, returns zero.
If the file name cannot be determined, returns \-1 (but does \f[B]not\fP
set \f[I]errno\fP.)
