fgetpos

Defined in header <stdio.h> 
int fgetpos( FILE          *stream, fpos_t          *pos );
-		 (until C99) 
int fgetpos( FILE *restrict stream, fpos_t *restrict pos );
-		 (since C99)

Obtains the file position indicator and the current parse state (if any) for the file stream stream and stores them in the object pointed to by pos. The value stored is only meaningful as the input to fsetpos.

-

Parameters

- - -
stream - file stream to examine
pos - pointer to a fpos_t object to store the file position indicator to

Return value

​0​ upon success, nonzero value otherwise.

Example

#include <stdio.h>
-#include <stdlib.h>
-#include <assert.h>
- 
-int main(void)
-{
-    // prepare a file holding 4 values of type double
-    enum {SIZE = 4};
-    FILE* fp = fopen("test.bin", "wb");
-    assert(fp);
-    int rc = fwrite((double[SIZE]){1.1, 2.2, 3.3, 4.4}, sizeof(double), SIZE, fp);
-    assert(rc == SIZE);
-    fclose(fp);
- 
-    // demo using fsetpos to return to the beginning of a file
-    fp = fopen("test.bin", "rb");
-    fpos_t pos;
-    fgetpos(fp, &pos);               // store start of file in pos
-    double d;
-    rc = fread(&d, sizeof d, 1, fp); // read the first double
-    assert(rc == 1);
-    printf("First value in the file: %.1f\n", d);
-    fsetpos(fp,&pos);                 // move file position back to the start of the file
-    rc = fread(&d, sizeof d, 1, fp);  // read the first double again
-    assert(rc == 1);
-    printf("First value in the file again: %.1f\n", d);
-    fclose(fp);
- 
-    // demo error handling
-    rc = fsetpos(stdin, &pos);
-    if(rc) perror("could not fsetpos stdin");
-}

Output:

-
First value in the file: 1.1
-First value in the file again: 1.1
-could not fsetpos stdin: Illegal seek
