Checks the status of a stream.
Standard C Library (libc.a)
#include <stdio.h>
int feof ( Stream)
FILE *Stream;
int ferror (Stream) FILE *Stream;
void clearerr (Stream) FILE *Stream;
int fileno (Stream) FILE *Stream;
The feof macro inquires about the end-of-file character (EOF). If EOF has previously been detected reading the input stream specified by the Stream parameter, a nonzero value is returned. Otherwise, a value of 0 is returned.
The ferror macro inquires about input or output errors. If an I/O error has previously occurred when reading from or writing to the stream specified by the Stream parameter, a nonzero value is returned. Otherwise, a value of 0 is returned.
The clearerr macro inquires about the status of a stream. The clearerr macro resets the error indicator and the EOF indicator to a value of 0 for the stream specified by the Stream parameter.
The fileno macro inquires about the status of a stream. The fileno macro returns the integer file descriptor associated with the stream pointed to by the Stream parameter. Otherwise a value of -1 is returned.
