(caca_file_t *)
Close a file handle. __extern uint64_t caca_file_tell
(caca_file_t *)
Return the position in a file handle. __extern size_t caca_file_read
(caca_file_t *, void *, size_t)
Read data from a file handle. __extern size_t caca_file_write
(caca_file_t *, const void *, size_t)
Write data to a file handle. __extern char * caca_file_gets
(caca_file_t *, char *, int)

Detailed Description
These functions allow to read and write files in a platform-independent way.
Function Documentation
__extern caca_file_t * caca_file_open (char const * path, const char * mode)
Create a caca file handle for a file. If the file is zipped, it is decompressed on the fly.
If an error occurs, NULL is returned and errno is set accordingly:
- ENOSTS Function not implemented.
- EINVAL File not found or permission denied.
Parameters
mode The file open mode
Returns
Referenced by caca_import_canvas_from_file().
__extern int caca_file_close (caca_file_t * fp)
Close and destroy the resources associated with a caca file handle.
This function is a wrapper for fclose() or, if available, gzclose().
Parameters
Returns
Referenced by caca_import_canvas_from_file().
__extern uint64_t caca_file_tell (caca_file_t * fp)
Return the file handle position, in bytes.
Parameters
Returns
__extern size_t caca_file_read (caca_file_t * fp, void * ptr, size_t size)
Read data from a file handle and copy them into the given buffer.
Parameters
ptr The destination buffer
size The number of bytes to read
Returns
Referenced by caca_import_canvas_from_file().
__extern size_t caca_file_write (caca_file_t * fp, const void * ptr, size_t size)
Write the contents of the given buffer to the file handle.
Parameters
ptr The source buffer
size The number of bytes to write
Returns
__extern char * caca_file_gets (caca_file_t * fp, char * s, int size)
Read one line of data from a file handle, up to one less than the given number of bytes. A trailing zero is appended to the data.
Parameters
s The destination buffer
size The maximum number of bytes to read
Returns
__extern int caca_file_eof (caca_file_t * fp)
Return the end-of-file status of the file handle.
This function is a wrapper for feof() or, if available, gzeof().
Parameters
Returns
Referenced by caca_import_canvas_from_file().
