|
filePointer |
A file pointer that the Clib Open File method returns. |
offset |
The number of bytes that the Clib Set Cursor Position method moves the file cursor, starting with the value that you specify in the mode argument. The cursor position in a text file might not correspond exactly with the byte offset in the file. A text file is a file that is not opened in binary mode. |
mode |
You can specify one of the following values:
- SEEK_CUR. Relative to the current position of the file cursor.
- SEEK_END. Relative to the end of the file.
- SEEK_SET. Relative to the beginning of the file. If you do not specify the mode argument, then this method uses SEEK_SET.
