wfopen - stream open functions
wfopen
, wfopen_s
, wfopen_ws
, wfopen_selector
The wfopen() function opens the file whose name is the string pointed to by pathname and associates a stream with it.
The argument mode points to a string beginning with one of the following sequences (possibly followed by additional characters, as described below): r
, r+
, w
w+
, a
, a+
The b
flag is ignored on all POSIX conforming systems, including Linux.
Upon successful completion wfopen() return a FILE
pointer.
Otherwise, NULL
is returned and errno is set to indicate the error.
The return error number is EINVAL
mode provided to wfopen() was invalid.
The GNU C library allows the following extensions for the string specified in mode:
c
(since glibc 2.3.3) Do not make the open operation, or subsequent read and write operations, thread cancellation points.
e
(since glibc 2.7) Open the file with the O_CLOEXEC
flag. See open(2) for more information.
m
(since glibc 2.3) Attempt to access the file using mmap(2), rather than I/O system calls. Currently, use of mmap(2) is attempted only for a file opened for reading.
x
Open the file exclusively (like the O_EXCL flag of open(2)). If the file already exists, wfopen() fails, and sets errno to EEXIST.
In addition to the above characters, fopen() support the following syntax in mode:
,ccs=string
The given string is taken as the name of a coded character set and the stream is marked as wide-oriented.
Thereafter, internal conversion functions convert I/O to and from the character set string.
If the ,ccs=string
syntax is not specified, then the wide-orientation of the stream is determined by the first file operation.
If that operation is a wide-character operation, the stream is marked wide-oriented, and functions to convert to the coded character set are loaded.
