FERROR(3)           Linux Programmer's Manual           FERROR(3)
NAME
       clearerr,  feof,  ferror,  fileno - check and reset stream
       status
SYNOPSIS
       #include <stdio.h>
       void clearerr( FILE *stream);
       int feof( FILE *stream);
       int ferror( FILE *stream);
       int fileno( FILE *stream);
DESCRIPTION
       The function clearerr clears  the  end-of-file  and  error
       indicators for the stream pointed to by stream.
       The  function feof tests the end-of-file indicator for the
       stream pointed to by stream, returning non-zero if  it  is
       set.  The end-of-file indicator can only be cleared by the
       function clearerr.
       The function ferror tests  the  error  indicator  for  the
       stream  pointed  to by stream, returning non-zero if it is
       set.  The error indicator can only be reset by the  clear-
       err function.
       The  function  fileno  examines  the  argument  stream and
       returns its integer descriptor.
ERRORS
       These functions should not fail and do not set the  exter-
       nal variable errno.
