Create a file on a filesystem.
Creates and opens a file on a filesystem
- Parameters:
-
fs Filesystem as target for the file path The name of the file to open flags The flags to open the file in, one of O_RDONLY, O_WRONLY, O_RDWR, bitwise or'd with one of O_CREAT, O_TRUNC, O_APPEND
| ~File | ( | ) | [virtual] |
Member Function Documentation
| int close | ( | void | ) | [virtual] |
| int isatty | ( | ) | [virtual] |
Check if the file in an interactive terminal device.
- Returns:
- True if the file is a terminal
Reimplemented from FileHandle.
| MBED_DEPRECATED_SINCE | ( | "mbed-os-5.4" | , |
| "Replaced by FileHandle::seek" | |||
| ) | [inherited] |
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
| int open | ( | FileSystem * | fs, |
| const char * | path, | ||
| int | flags = O_RDONLY |
||
| ) | [virtual] |
Open a file on the filesystem.
- Parameters:
-
fs Filesystem as target for the file path The name of the file to open flags The flags to open the file in, one of O_RDONLY, O_WRONLY, O_RDWR, bitwise or'd with one of O_CREAT, O_TRUNC, O_APPEND
- Returns:
- 0 on success, negative error code on failure
| ssize_t read | ( | void * | buffer, |
| size_t | size | ||
| ) | [virtual] |
Read the contents of a file into a buffer.
- 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
Implements FileHandle.
| void rewind | ( | ) | [virtual] |
Rewind the file position to the beginning of the file.
- Note:
- This is equivalent to file_seek(file, 0, FS_SEEK_SET)
Reimplemented from FileHandle.
| off_t seek | ( | off_t | offset, |
| int | whence = SEEK_SET |
||
| ) | [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
Implements FileHandle.
| off_t size | ( | ) | [virtual] |
| int sync | ( | ) | [virtual] |
Flush any buffers associated with the file.
- Returns:
- 0 on success, negative error code on failure
Reimplemented from FileHandle.
| off_t tell | ( | ) | [virtual] |
Get the file position of the file.
- Returns:
- The current offset in the file
Reimplemented from FileHandle.
| ssize_t write | ( | const void * | buffer, |
| size_t | size | ||
| ) | [virtual] |
Write the contents of a buffer to a file.
- Parameters:
-
buffer The buffer to write from size The number of bytes to write
- Returns:
- The number of bytes written, negative error on failure
Implements FileHandle.
