File and Path Function
int chroot(const char *path);
Internationalization (I18n) Function Overview
The chroot function causes the named directory, specified by path ,
to become the root directory; that is, the starting point for path searches for pathnames beginning with / .
The process' working directory is unaffected by chroot .
Upon successful completion, 0 is returned. Otherwise, -1 is
returned and the global errno variable is set to indicate the error. If -1
is returned, no change is made to the root directory.
I18n Issues
On ANSI UTF-16 platforms, use a conversion function to convert the
wide-character string to a multibyte-character string and then call chroot .
See Pathnames for a discussion of path and filename considerations in
an internationalized application.
