.Sh DESCRIPTION
|
||
|
|
The function
|
||
|
|
.Fn clearerr
|
||
|
|
clears the end-of-file and error indicators for the stream pointed
|
||
|
|
to by
|
||
|
|
.Fa stream .
|
||
|
|
.Pp
|
||
|
|
The function
|
||
|
|
.Fn feof
|
||
|
|
tests the end-of-file indicator for the stream pointed to by
|
||
|
|
.Fa stream ,
|
||
|
|
returning non-zero if it is set.
|
||
|
|
The end-of-file indicator can only be cleared by the function
|
||
|
|
.Fn clearerr .
|
||
|
|
.Pp
|
||
|
|
The function
|
||
|
|
.Fn ferror
|
||
|
|
tests the error indicator for the stream pointed to by
|
||
|
|
.Fa stream ,
|
||
|
|
returning non-zero if it is set.
|
||
|
|
The error indicator can only be reset by the
|
||
|
|
.Fn clearerr
|
||
|
|
function.
|
||
|
|
.Pp
|
||
|
|
The function
|
||
|
|
.Fn fileno
|
||
|
|
examines the argument
|
||
|
|
.Fa stream
|
||
|
|
and returns its integer descriptor.
|
||
|
|
.Sh ERRORS
|
||
|
|
The functions
|
||
|
|
.Fn clearerr ,
|
||
|
|
.Fn feof ,
|
||
|
|
and
|
||
|
|
.Fn ferror
|
||
|
|
should neither fail nor set the external variable
|
||
|
|
.Va errno .
|
||
|
|
However, the function
|
||
|
|
.Fn fileno
|
||
|
|
may fail and return \-1 in case the argument
|
||
|
|
.Fa stream
|
||
|
|
is not associated with a valid file descriptor.
|
||
|
|
(In this case the
|
||
|
|
.Nx
|
||
|
|
implementation does not follow the optional
|
||
|
|
.Tn POSIX
|
||
|
|
recommendation to set the
|
||
|
|
.Va errno
|
||
|
|
variable to
|
||
|
|
.Er EBADF . )
