fseeko, ftello — seek to or report file position
#include <stdio.h>
int
fseeko( |
FILE * | stream, |
| off_t | offset, | |
| int | whence); |
off_t
ftello( |
FILE * | stream); |
The fseeko() and
ftello() functions are
identical to fseek(3) and ftell(3) (see fseek(3)), respectively,
except that the offset argument of fseeko() and the return value of
ftello() is of type
off_t instead of long.
On many architectures both off_t and long are 32-bit types, but compilation with
#define _FILE_OFFSET_BITS 64
will turn off_t into a 64-bit type.
On successful completion, fseeko() returns 0, while ftello() returns the current offset.
Otherwise, −1 is returned and errno is set to indicate the error.
These functions are found on System V-like systems. They are not present in libc4, libc5, glibc 2.0 but are available since glibc 2.1.
