<p><strong>Description</strong><br>
|
||
|
Objects of type <code>FILE</code> can have a “position” that records how much
|
||
|
of the file your program has already read. Many of the <code>stdio</code> functions
|
||
|
depend on this position, and many change it as a side effect.
|
||
|
</p>
|
||
|
<p>You can use <code>fseek</code>/<code>fseeko</code> to set the position for the file identified by
|
||
|
<var>fp</var>. The value of <var>offset</var> determines the new position, in one
|
||
|
of three ways selected by the value of <var>whence</var> (defined as macros
|
||
|
in ‘<code>stdio.h</code>’):
|
||
|
</p>
|
||
|
<p><code>SEEK_SET</code>—<var>offset</var> is the absolute file position (an offset
|
||
|
from the beginning of the file) desired. <var>offset</var> must be positive.
|
||
|
</p>
|
||
|
<p><code>SEEK_CUR</code>—<var>offset</var> is relative to the current file position.
|
||
|
<var>offset</var> can meaningfully be either positive or negative.
|
||
|
</p>
|
||
|
<p><code>SEEK_END</code>—<var>offset</var> is relative to the current end of file.
|
||
|
<var>offset</var> can meaningfully be either positive (to increase the size
|
||
|
of the file) or negative.
|
||
|
</p>
|
||
|
<p>See <code>ftell</code>/<code>ftello</code> to determine the current file position.
|
||
|
</p>
|
||
|
<br>
|
||
|
<p><strong>Returns</strong><br>
|
||
|
<code>fseek</code>/<code>fseeko</code> return <code>0</code> when successful. On failure, the
|
||
|
result is <code>EOF</code>. The reason for failure is indicated in <code>errno</code>:
|
||
|
either <code>ESPIPE</code> (the stream identified by <var>fp</var> doesn’t support
|
||
|
repositioning) or <code>EINVAL</code> (invalid file position).
|
||
|
</p>
|
||
|
<br>
|
||
|
<p><strong>Portability</strong><br>
|
||
|
ANSI C requires <code>fseek</code>.
|
||
|
</p>
|
||
|
<p><code>fseeko</code> is defined by the Single Unix specification.
|
||
|
</p>
|
||
|
<p>Supporting OS subroutines required: <code>close</code>, <code>fstat</code>, <code>isatty</code>,
|
||
|
<code>lseek</code>, <code>read</code>, <code>sbrk</code>, <code>write</code>.
