After "fopen"ing a file, how can I get a file handle? (I want to use the function getftime.)

In most C systems, you would use the fileno() function (on some systems it may be a macro). e.g.: FILE *fa; int fd; ... fd = fileno(fa); would put the file handle in fd. Of course in the function call to getftime you could just put the fileno function in the argument list. I'm not familiar with getftime but it might look like this: getftime(fileno(fa),&result);

(I want to use > the function getftime.) #include <stdio.h> int fileno(stream); FILE *stream; fileno returns the file handle. There is no error return. Results are undefined if 'stream' does not specify an open file. fileno is implemented as a macro. -- --- Clarence A Dold - dold@tsmiti.Convergent.COM (408) 434-5293 ...pyramid!ctnews!tsmiti!dold P.O.Box 6685, San Jose, CA 95150-6685 MS#10-007

A question I know the answer to. Use the fileno() function. example: (int) handle = fileno ((FILE *) internal_name); (actually I had to use this just the other day) Bob -- -=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=- = I know it's petty.......... = - But I have to justify my salary! - =-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=
