Detailed Description
Class FileHandle.
An abstract interface that represents operations on a file-like object. The core functions are read, write, and seek, but only a subset of these operations can be provided.

- to create a file,

Member Function Documentation
virtual int close | ( | ) | [pure virtual] |
Close a file.
- Returns:
- 0 on success, negative error code on failure
Implemented in UARTSerial, File, and Stream.
virtual int isatty | ( | ) | [virtual] |
Check if the file in an interactive terminal device.
- Returns:
- True if the file is a terminal
- False if the file is not a terminal
- Negative error code on failure
Reimplemented in UARTSerial, File, and Stream.
Definition at line 109 of file FileHandle.h.
MBED_DEPRECATED_SINCE | ( | "mbed-os-5.4" | , |
"Replaced by FileHandle::seek" | |||
) |
Move the file position to a given offset from a given location.
- Parameters:
-
offset The offset from whence to move to whence SEEK_SET for the start of the file, SEEK_CUR for the current file position, or SEEK_END for the end of the file.
- Returns:
- new file position on success, -1 on failure or unsupported
virtual ssize_t read | ( | void * | buffer, |
size_t | size | ||
) | [pure virtual] |
Read the contents of a file into a buffer.
Devices acting as FileHandles should follow POSIX semantics:
* if no data is available, and non-blocking set return -EAGAIN * if no data is available, and blocking set, wait until some data is available * If any data is available, call returns immediately
- Parameters:
-
buffer The buffer to read in to size The number of bytes to read
- Returns:
- The number of bytes read, 0 at end of file, negative error on failure
Implemented in UARTSerial, File, and Stream.
virtual void rewind | ( | ) | [virtual] |
Rewind the file position to the beginning of the file.
- Note:
- This is equivalent to seek(0, SEEK_SET)
Reimplemented in File, and Stream.
Definition at line 129 of file FileHandle.h.
virtual off_t seek | ( | off_t | offset, |
int | whence = SEEK_SET |
||
) | [pure virtual] |
Move the file position to a given offset from from a given location.
- Parameters:
-
offset The offset from whence to move to whence The start of where to seek SEEK_SET to start from beginning of file, SEEK_CUR to start from current position in file, SEEK_END to start from end of file
- Returns:
- The new offset of the file, negative error code on failure
Implemented in UARTSerial, File, and Stream.
off_t size | ( | ) | [virtual] |
Get the size of the file.
- Returns:
- Size of the file in bytes
Reimplemented in File, and Stream.
Definition at line 22 of file FileHandle_stub.cpp.
virtual int sync | ( | ) | [virtual] |
Flush any buffers associated with the file.
- Returns:
- 0 on success, negative error code on failure
Reimplemented in UARTSerial, File, and Stream.
Definition at line 98 of file FileHandle.h.
virtual off_t tell | ( | ) | [virtual] |
Get the file position of the file.
- Note:
- This is equivalent to seek(0, SEEK_CUR)
- Returns:
- The current offset in the file, negative error code on failure
Reimplemented in File, and Stream.
Definition at line 120 of file FileHandle.h.
virtual ssize_t write | ( | const void * | buffer, |
size_t | size | ||
) | [pure virtual] |
Write the contents of a buffer to a file.
Devices acting as FileHandles should follow POSIX semantics:
* if blocking, block until all data is written * if no data can be written, and non-blocking set, return -EAGAIN * if some data can be written, and non-blocking set, write partial
- Parameters:
-
buffer The buffer to write from size The number of bytes to write
- Returns:
- The number of bytes written, negative error on failure
Implemented in UARTSerial, File, and Stream.
