dio_seek — Seeks to pos on fd from whence

Descrierea

dio_seek ( resource $fd , int $pos [, int $whence = SEEK_SET ] ) : int

The function dio_seek() is used to change the file position of the given file descriptor.

Parametri

fd

The file descriptor returned by dio_open().

pos

The new position.

whence

Specifies how the position pos should be interpreted:

  • SEEK_SET (default) - specifies that pos is specified from the beginning of the file.

  • SEEK_CUR - Specifies that pos is a count of characters from the current file position. This count may be positive or negative.

  • SEEK_END - Specifies that pos is a count of characters from the end of the file. A negative count specifies a position within the current extent of the file; a positive count specifies a position past the current end. If you set the position past the current end, and actually write data, you will extend the file with zeros up to that position.

Example #1 Positioning in a file

<?php

$fd = dio_open('/dev/ttyS0', O_RDWR);

dio_seek($fd, 10, SEEK_SET);
// position is now at 10 characters from the start of the file

dio_seek($fd, -2, SEEK_CUR);
// position is now at 8 characters from the start of the file

dio_seek($fd, -5, SEEK_END);
// position is now at 5 characters from the end of the file

dio_seek($fd, 10, SEEK_END);
// position is now at 10 characters past the end of the file. 
// The 10 characters between the end of the file and the current
// position are filled with zeros.

dio_close($fd);
?>
