FSEEKO(3) Linux Programmer's Manual FSEEKO(3)NAME
fseeko, ftello - seek to or report file position
SYNOPSIS
#include <stdio.h>
int fseeko(FILE *stream, off_t offset, int whence);
off_t ftello(FILE *stream);
DESCRIPTION
The fseeko() and ftello() functions are identical to fseek() and ftell() (see fseek(3)), respectively, except that the offset argument of
fseeko() and the return value of ftello() is of type off_t instead of long.
On many architectures both off_t and long are 32-bit types, but compilation with
#define _FILE_OFFSET_BITS 64
will turn off_t into a 64-bit type.
NOTES
These functions are found on SysV-like systems. They are not present in libc4, libc5, glibc 2.0 but available since glibc 2.1.
CONFORMING TO
The fseeko and ftello functions conform to SUSv2.

SYNOPSIS
#include <stdio.h>
int fseeko(FILE *stream, off_t offset, int whence);
off_t ftello(FILE *stream);
DESCRIPTION
The fseeko() and ftello() functions are identical to fseek(3) and ftell(3) (see fseek(3)), respectively, except that the offset argument of
fseeko() and the return value of ftello() is of type off_t instead of long.
On many architectures both off_t and long are 32-bit types, but compilation with
#define _FILE_OFFSET_BITS 64
will turn off_t into a 64-bit type.
RETURN VALUE
On successful completion, fseeko() returns 0, while ftello() returns the current offset. Otherwise, -1 is returned and errno is set to
indicate the error.
ERRORS
See the ERRORS in fseek(3).
CONFORMING TO
SUSv2, POSIX.1-2001.

I use a standard C source to access large files in a 32 bit environment.
I've replaced fopen, fwrite and fread by fopen64, fwrite64 and fread64.
First I did a test only replacing fopen by fopen64, it compiled without any other changes to my compilation options.
The program crashed on a write, as... (3 Replies)

Hello experts,
I ve a text file I want to go to particular line . what is the best way to do this in c ?
