/* Record the location of the current working directory in CWD so that
|
|
the program may change to other directories and later use restore_cwd
|
|
to return to the recorded location. This function may allocate
|
|
space using malloc (via getcwd) or leave a file descriptor open;
|
|
use free_cwd to perform the necessary free or close. Upon failure,
|
|
no memory is allocated, any locally opened file descriptors are
|
|
closed; return non-zero -- in that case, free_cwd need not be
|
|
called, but doing so is ok. Otherwise, return zero.
|
|
|
|
The _raison d'etre_ for this interface is that the working directory
|
|
is sometimes inaccessible, and getcwd is not robust or as efficient.
|
|
So, we prefer to use the open/fchdir approach, but fall back on
|
|
getcwd if necessary. This module works for most cases with just
|
|
the getcwd-lgpl module, but to be truly robust, use the getcwd module.
|
|
|
|
Some systems lack fchdir altogether: e.g., OS/2, pre-2001 Cygwin,
|
|
SCO Xenix. Also, SunOS 4 and Irix 5.3 provide the function, yet it
|
|
doesn't work for partitions on which auditing is enabled. If
|
|
you're still using an obsolete system with these problems, please
|
|
send email to the maintainer of this code. */
