B.1.6 File Positioning Functions
int fseek(FILE *stream, long offset, int origin)
- fseek sets the file position for stream; a subsequent read or write will access data beginning at the new position. For a binary file, the position is set to offset characters from origin, which may be SEEK_SET (beginning), SEEK_CUR (current position), or SEEK_END (end of file). For a text stream, offset must be zero, or a value returned by ftell (in which case origin must be SEEK_SET). fseek returns non-zero on error.
long ftell(FILE *stream)
- ftell returns the current file position for stream, or -1 on error.
void rewind(FILE *stream)
- rewind(fp) is equivalent to fseek(fp, 0L, SEEK_SET); clearerr(fp).
int fgetpos(FILE *stream, fpos_t *ptr)
- fgetpos records the current position in stream in *ptr, for subsequent use by fsetpos. The type fpos_t is suitable for recording such values. fgetpos returns non-zero on error.
int fsetpos(FILE *stream, const fpos_t *ptr)
- fsetpos positions stream at the position recorded by fgetpos in *ptr. fsetpos returns non-zero on error.
