This manual page is part of the POSIX Programmer's Manual. The Linux implementation of this interface may differ (consult the correspond- ing Linux manual page for details of Linux behavior), or the interface may not be implemented on Linux. NAME
rewind - reset the file position indicator in a stream SYNOPSIS
#include <stdio.h> void rewind(FILE *stream); DESCRIPTION
The call: rewind(stream) shall be equivalent to: (void) fseek(stream, 0L, SEEK_SET) except that rewind() shall also clear the error indicator. Since rewind() does not return a value, an application wishing to detect errors should clear errno, then call rewind(), and if errno is non-zero, assume an error has occurred. RETURN VALUE
The rewind() function shall not return a value. ERRORS
Refer to fseek() with the exception of [EINVAL] which does not apply. The following sections are informative. EXAMPLES
None. APPLICATION USAGE
None. RATIONALE
None. FUTURE DIRECTIONS
None. SEE ALSO
