COUNT_FOPEN(3)		     Library Functions Manual		  COUNT_FOPEN(3)

NAME
     count_fopen -- read a fixed number of bytes from a stream

LIBRARY
     PDEL Library (libpdel, -lpdel)

SYNOPSIS
     #include <sys/types.h>
     #include <stdio.h>
     #include <pdel/io/count_fp.h>

     FILE *
     count_fopen(FILE *fp, off_t count, int closeit);

DESCRIPTION
     count_fopen()  creates a new read-only stream that reads up to, but no more
     than, count bytes from the underlying stream fp.  After  count  bytes  have
     been  read,  further  attempts to read from the returned stream will return
     EOF.

     fclose(3) should be used to close the returned stream.  The closeit parame-
     ter determines whether the underlying stream fp is closed when the returned
     stream is closed.

RETURN VALUES
     boundary_fopen() returns NULL to indicate an error, with errno  set  appro-
     priately.
