NAME
|
||||
fseek, rewind, ftell - reposition a file pointer in a stream
|
||||
SYNTAX
|
||||
#include <stdio.h>
|
||||
int fseek (stream, offset, ptrname)
|
||||
FILE *stream;
|
||||
long offset;
|
||||
int ptrname;
|
||||
void rewind (stream)
|
||||
FILE *stream;
|
||||
long ftell (stream)
|
||||
FILE *stream;
|
||||
DESCRIPTION
|
||||
Fseek sets the position of the next input or output
|
||||
operation on the stream. The new position is at the signed
|
||||
distance offset bytes from the beginning, from the current
|
||||
position, or from the end of the file, according as ptrname
|
||||
has the value 0, 1, or 2.
|
||||
Rewind(stream) is equivalent to fseek(stream, 0L, 0), except
|
||||
that no value is returned.
|
||||
Fseek and rewind undo any effects of ungetc(3S).
|
||||
After fseek or rewind, the next operation on a file opened
|
||||
for update may be either input or output.
|
||||
Ftell returns the offset of the current byte relative to the
|
||||
beginning of the file associated with the named stream.
|
||||
SEE ALSO
|
||||
lseek(2), fopen(3S), popen(3S), ungetc(3S).
|
||||
DIAGNOSTICS
|
||||
Fseek returns non-zero for improper seeks, otherwise zero.
|
||||
An improper seek can be, for example, an fseek done on a
|
||||
file that has not been opened via fopen; in particular,
|
||||
fseek may not be used on a terminal, or on a file opened via
|
||||
popen(3S).
|
||||
WARNING
|
||||
Although on the UNIX system an offset returned by ftell is
|
||||
measured in bytes, and it is permissible to seek to
|
||||
positions relative to that offset, portability to non-UNIX
|
||||
systems requires that an offset be used by fseek directly.
|
||||
Arithmetic may not meaningfully be performed on such an
|
||||
offset, which is not necessarily measured in bytes.
