FFLUSH(3) Linux Programmer's Manual FFLUSH(3) +

+ +

NAME +

fflush, fpurge - flush a stream + +

SYNOPSIS +

#include <stdio.h> + + int fflush( FILE *stream); + int fpurge( FILE *stream); + +

DESCRIPTION +

The function fflush forces a write of all buffered data + for the given output or update stream via the stream's + underlying write function. The open status of the stream + is unaffected. + + If the stream argument is NULL, fflush flushes all open + output streams. (Does this happen under Linux) + + The function fpurge erases any input or output buffered in + the given stream. For output streams this discards any + unwritten output. For input streams this discards any + input read from the underlying object but not yet obtained + via getc(3); this includes any text pushed back via + ungetc. + +

RETURN VALUES +

Upon successful completion 0 is returned. Otherwise, EOF + is returned and the global variable errno is set to indi- + cate the error. + +

ERRORS +

EBADF Stream is not an open stream, or, in the case of + fflush, not a stream open for writing. + + The function fflush may also fail and set errno for any of + the errors specified for the routine write(2). + +

BUGS +

Linux may not support fpurge. + +
+
+

SEE ALSO +

+write, +fopen, +fclose, +setbuf, +

+
+

STANDARDS +

The fflush function conforms to ANSI C3.159-1989 (``ANSI + C''). + + + + + + + + + + + +
