Enum exec::Error

#[must_use]
pub enum Error {
    BadArgument(NulError),
    Errno(Errno),
}

Represents an error calling exec.

This is marked #[must_use], which is unusual for error types. Normally, the fact that Result is marked in this fashion is sufficient, but in this case, this error is returned bare from functions that only return a result if they fail.

Variants

BadArgument(NulError)

One of the strings passed to execv contained an internal null byte and can't be passed correctly to C.

Errno(Errno)

An error was returned by the system.
