xt_ff_getc(3) Library Functions Manual xt_ff_getc(3) NAME xt_ff_getc() - Read next character from a fast file stream LIBRARY #include <xtend/fast-file.h> -lxtend SYNOPSIS int xt_ff_getc(xt_ff_t *stream) ARGUMENTS stream Pointer to an xt_ff_t object DESCRIPTION xt_ff_getc(3) reads a single character from a xt_ff_t stream opened by xt_ff_open(3). The xt_ff_t system is simpler than and much faster than traditional FILE on typical systems. It is intended for processing large files character-by- character, where low-level block I/O is not convenient, but FILE I/O causes a bottleneck. RETURN VALUES The character read, or EOF if no more data are available EXAMPLES xt_ff_t *stream; int ch; if ( (stream = xt_ff_open(filename, O_RDONLY)) == NULL ) { fprintf(stderr, "Cannot open %s for reading: %s.n", filename, strerror(errno)); exit(EX_NOINPUT); } while ( (ch = xt_ff_getc(stream)) != EOF ) { } xt_ff_close(stream); SEE ALSO xt_ff_open(3), xt_ff_putc(3), xt_ff_close(3) xt_ff_getc(3)
