void vSampleFunction( char *pcFileName, char *pcBuffer )
{
F_FILE *pxFile;
long lPosition;

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

/* Expect the file position to be 0. */
lPosition = f_tell( pxFile );

/* Read one byte. */
f_read( pcBuffer, 1, 1, pxFile );

/* Expect the file position to be 1. */
lPosition = f_tell( pxFile );

/* Read another byte. */
f_read( pcBuffer, 1, 1, pxFile );

/* Expect the file position to be 2. */
lPosition = f_tell( pxFile );

/* Close the file again. */
f_close( pxFile );
