ff_fseek()

[FreeRTOS-Plus-FAT Standard API Reference]

ff_stdio.h
int ff_fseek( FF_FILE *pxStream, int iOffset, int iWhence );
		

Moves the current read/write position of an open file to ( iWhence + iOffset ).

Parameters:

pxStream   The file in which the current read/write position is being updated.

iOffset   An offset (in bytes) from the position set by the iWhence parameter to which the file's current read/write position will be set.

iWhence   The position within the file from which the iOffset value is relative. Valid values for iWhence include:

Value
Description
FF_SEEK_CUR The current file position.
FF_SEEK_END The end of the file.
FF_SEEK_SET The beginning of the file.

Returns:

On success 0 is returned.

If the read/write position could not be moved then -1 is returned and the task's errno is set to indicate the reason. A task can obtain its errno value use the stdioGET_ERRNO() API function.

Example usage:


void vSampleFunction( char *pcFileName, char *pcBuffer )
{
FF_FILE *pxFile;

/* Open the file specified by the pcFileName parameter. */
pxFile = ff_fopen( pcFileName, "r" );

if( pxFile != NULL )
{
/* Read one byte from the opened file. */
ff_fread( pcBuffer, 1, 1, pxFile );

/* Move the current file position back to the very start of the file. */
ff_fseek( pxFile, 0, FF_SEEK_SET );

/* Read a byte again. As the file position was moved back to the start
of the file the byte that is read is the same byte read by the first
ff_fread() call. */

ff_fread( pcBuffer, 1, 1, pxFile );

/* This time move the current position to the last byte in the file. */
ff_fseek( pxFile, -1, FF_SEEK_END );

/* Now the byte read is the last byte in the file. */
ff_fread( pcBuffer, 1, 1, pxFile );

/* Finished with the file, close it. */
ff_fclose( pxFile );
}
}
