working directory SYNOPSIS #include <unistd.h>
char *getcwd(char *buf, size_t size);
DESCRIPTION The ssh shell init error retrieving current directory getcwd getcwd() function shall place an absolute pathname of the current working getcwd cannot access parent directory directory in the array pointed to by buf, and return buf. The pathname copied to the error: the current working directory doesn't exist, cannot proceed. array shall contain no components that are symbolic links. The size argument is the size in bytes of the character array pointed to by the buf argument. http://stackoverflow.com/questions/12338233/shell-init-issue-when-click-tab-whats-wrong-with-getcwd If buf is a null pointer, the behavior of getcwd() is unspecified. RETURN VALUE Upon successful completion, getcwd() shall return the buf argument. Otherwise, getcwd() shall return a null pointer and set errno to indicate the error. The contents of the array pointed to by buf are then undefined. ERRORS The getcwd() function shall http://pubs.opengroup.org/onlinepubs/009695399/functions/getcwd.html fail if: [EINVAL] The size argument is 0. [ERANGE] The size argument is greater than 0, but is smaller than the length of the pathname +1. The getcwd() function may fail if: [EACCES] Read or search permission was denied for a component of the pathname. [ENOMEM] Insufficient storage space is available. The following sections are informative. EXAMPLES Determining the Absolute Pathname of the Current Working Directory The following example returns a pointer to an array that holds the absolute pathname of the current working directory. The pointer is returned in the ptr variable, which points to the buf array where the pathname is stored. #include
