FGETPOS(3P) POSIX Programmer's Manual FGETPOS(3P)
This manual page is part of the POSIX Programmer's Manual. The Linux
implementation of this interface may differ (consult the
corresponding Linux manual page for details of Linux behavior), or
the interface may not be implemented on Linux.
fgetpos — get current file position information
#include <stdio.h>
int fgetpos(FILE *restrict stream, fpos_t *restrict pos);
The functionality described on this reference page is aligned with
the ISO C standard. Any conflict between the requirements described
here and the ISO C standard is unintentional. This volume of
POSIX.1‐2008 defers to the ISO C standard.
The fgetpos() function shall store the current values of the parse
state (if any) and file position indicator for the stream pointed to
by stream in the object pointed to by pos. The value stored contains
unspecified information usable by fsetpos() for repositioning the
stream to its position at the time of the call to fgetpos().
The fgetpos() function shall not change the setting of errno if
successful.
Upon successful completion, fgetpos() shall return 0; otherwise, it
shall return a non-zero value and set errno to indicate the error.
The fgetpos() function shall fail if:
EBADF The file descriptor underlying stream is not valid.
EOVERFLOW
The current value of the file position cannot be represented
correctly in an object of type fpos_t.
ESPIPE The file descriptor underlying stream is associated with a
pipe, FIFO, or socket.
