+/** @fn clearerr(FILE *fp)
+@param fp
+
+Note: This description also covers the following functions -
+ feof() ferror() fileno()
+
+ The function clearerr clears the end-of-file and error indicators for the stream pointed
+to by fp.
+
+ The function feof tests the end-of-file indicator for the stream pointed to by fp, 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 fp, returning non-zero if it is set.
+The error indicator can only be reset by the clearerr function.
+
+ The function fileno examines the argument fp and returns its integer descriptor.
+
+Examples:
+@code
+/* this program shows finding error set using ferror
+ * and clearing it using clearerr functions */
+#include <stdio.h>
+int main()
+{
+ char a;
+ if( set_fmode('t') != 0 ) // setting text-mode as default file opening mode throughout the appln.
+ {
+ printf("Failed to set text-mode\n");
+ return -1;
+ }
+ FILE* fp = fopen("c:\input.txt", "w");
+ fprintf(fp, "%s", "abcdefghijklmn");
+ fprintf(fp, "%c", '');
+ fprintf(fp, "%s", "fdsfdsafsdabcdefghijklmn");
+ fclose(fp);
+ fp=fopen("c:\input.txt","r");
+ if (fp == NULL)
+ {
+ printf("fopen failed");
+ return -1;
+ }
+ else
+ {
+ fwrite(&a;, sizeof(char), 1, fp);
+ if (ferror (fp))
+ printf("error set in file stream");
+ else

+ return -1;
+ }
+ clearerr(fp);
+ if (!ferror(fp))
+ printf("error cleared in file stream");
+ else printf("error still unexpected set in file stream");

+
+/** @fn fclose(FILE *fp)
+@param fp
+@return Upon successful completion 0 is returned.
+Otherwise, EOF is returned and the global variable errno is set to indicate the error.
+In either case no further access to the stream is possible.
+
+ The fclose function dissociates the named stream from its underlying file or set of functions. If the stream was
+being used for output any buffered data is written first using fflush .
+
+Examples:
+@code
+/* this program shows opening and closing of a file using fclose api */
+#include <stdio.h>
+int main()
+{
+ FILE *fp;
+ if( set_fmode('t') != 0 ) // setting text-mode as default file opening mode throughout the appln.

+ fp = fopen("c:\input.txt", "w+");
+ if(fp == NULL)
+ {
+ printf("file opening failed");
+ return -1;
+ }
+
+ printf("file opened successfully: Perform file operations now");
+
+ if(!fclose(fp))
+ {

+}
+
+@endcode
+@code
+Output

+
+Notes:
+
+ The fclose function
+does not handle NULL arguments; they will result in a segmentation
+violation.
+This is intentional - it makes it easier to make sure programs written
+under are bug free. This behaviour is an implementation detail and programs should not
+rely upon it.

+
+@return Upon successful completion fgets and gets return a pointer to the string. If end-of-file occurs before any
+characters are read they return NULL and the buffer contents remain unchanged. If an error occurs they
+return NULL and the buffer contents are indeterminate. The fgets and gets functions do not distinguish between end-of-file and error and
+callers must use feof and ferror to determine which occurred.
+
+ The fgets function reads at most one less than the number of characters
+specified by n from the given stream and stores them in the string buf. Reading stops when a newline character is found, at end-of-file or
+error. The newline, if any, is retained. If any characters are read, and there is no error, a \\0 character is appended to end the string.
+
+The gets function is equivalent to fgets with an infinite size and a stream of stdin,
+except that the newline character (if any) is not stored in the string.
+It is the caller's responsibility to ensure that the input line,if any, is sufficiently short to fit in the string.
+
+Examples:
+@code
+/* this program shows reading characters from a file using fgets */
+/* consider input.txt has the following content: */
+/* abcdefghijklmn */
+/* fdsfdsafsdabcdefghijklmn */

+
+Security considerations:
+
+ The gets function cannot be used securely.
+Because of its lack of bounds checking,and the inability for the calling program
+to reliably determine the length of the next incoming line,the use of this function enables malicious users
+to arbitrarily change a running program's functionality through a buffer overflow attack.
+It is strongly suggested that the fgets function be used in all cases.

+@param file
+@param mode
+
+Note: This description also covers the following functions -
+ fdopen() freopen()
+
+@return Upon successful completion fopen, fdopen and freopen return a FILE pointer.
+Otherwise, NULL is returned and the global variable errno is set to indicate the error.
+
+ Note: To open file in text-mode use set_fmode() prior to fopen() or at the start of appln. Default file opening mode in symbian is binary.
+ For more details, see set_fmode().
+
+The fopen function opens the file whose name is the string pointed to by file and associates a stream with it.
+
+The argument mode points to a string beginning with one of the following sequences (Additional characters may follow these sequences.):
+@code
+"r" Open file in text mode if text-mode is set using set_fmode(), otherwise opens in default binary mode for reading. The stream is positioned at the beginning of the file.
+"r+" Open file in text mode if text-mode is set using set_fmode(), otherwise opens in default binary mode for reading and writing. The stream is positioned at the beginning of the file.
+"w" Truncate to zero length or create file in text mode if text-mode is set using set_fmode(), otherwise opens in default binary mode for writing. The stream is positioned at the beginning of the file.
+"w+" Open file in text mode if text-mode is set using set_fmode(), otherwise opens in default binary mode for reading and writing. The file is created if it does not exist, otherwise it is truncated. The stream is positioned at the beginning of the file.
+"a" Open file in text mode if text-mode is set using set_fmode(), otherwise opens in default binary mode for writing. The file is created if it does not exist. The stream is positioned at the end of the file. Subsequent writes to the file will always end up at the then current end of file, irrespective of any intervening fseek or similar.
+"a+" Open file in text mode if text-mode is set using set_fmode(), otherwise opens in default binary mode for reading and writing. The file is created if it does not exist. The stream is positioned at the end of the file. Subsequent writes to the file will always end up at the then current end of file, irrespective of any intervening fseek or similar.
+@endcode
+The mode string can also include the letter "b" either as a third character or as a character between the characters in any of the two-character strings described above while explicitly specifying binary mode.
+
+The mode string can also include the letter "t" either as a third character or as a character between the characters in any of the two-character strings described above while explicitly specifying text mode.
+
+Reads and writes may be intermixed on read/write streams in any order, and do not require an intermediate seek as in previous versions of stdio. This is not portable to other systems, however; ANSI C requires that a file positioning function intervene between output and input, unless an input operation encounters end-of-file.
+
+The fdopen function associates a stream with the existing file descriptor, fildes. The mode of the stream must be compatible with the mode of the file descriptor. When the stream is closed via fclose, fildes is closed also.
+
+The freopen function opens the file whose name is the string pointed to by path and associates the stream pointed to by stream with it. The original stream (if it exists) is closed. The mode argument is used just as in the fopen function.
+
+If the file argument is NULL, freopen attempts to re-open the file associated with stream with a new mode. The new mode must be compatible with the mode that the stream was originally opened with:
+@code
+ * Streams originally opened with mode "r" can only be reopened with that same mode.
+ * Streams originally opened with mode "a" can be reopened with the same mode, or mode "w."
+ * Streams originally opened with mode "w" can be reopened with the same mode, or mode "a."
+ * Streams originally opened with mode "r+," "w+," or "a+" can be reopened with any mode.
+@endcode
+The primary use of the freopen function is to change the file associated with a standard text stream (stderr, stdin, or stdout).
+
+
+
+Examples:
+@code
+/* This program shows opening a file in default binary mode with write combination,write data and close */
+/* again open in append mode and write data */
+/* Check file c:\fopen.txt */
+#include <stdio.h>

+
+Limitations:
+
+A file in cannot be created with write-only permission and attempting to
+create one will result in a file with read-write permission. Creating a new file
+with the O_CREAT flag does not alter the time stamp of its parent directory. The
+newly created entry has only two time stamps: access and modification. Creation
+time stamp is not supported and access time stamp is initially equal to modification
+time stamp. open, fclose and fflush.
+
+KErrNotReady of symbian error code is mapped to ENOENT, which typically means drive
+not found or filesystem not mounted on the drive.

+@return The functions fread and fwrite advance the file position indicator for the stream
+by the number of bytes read or written.
+They return the number of objects read or written.
+If an error occurs, or the end-of-file is reached,
+the return value is a short object count (or zero). The function fread does not distinguish between end-of-file and error. Callers
+ must use feof and ferror to determine which occurred. The function fwrite returns a value less than count only if a write error has occurred.
+
+ The function fread reads count objects, each size bytes long, from the stream pointed to by fp, storing them at the location given by buf.
+
+ The function fwrite writes count objects, each size bytes long, to the stream pointed to by fp, obtaining them from the location given by buf.

+@param fp
+@param offset
+@param whence
+
+Note: This description also covers the following functions -
+ ftell() rewind() fgetpos() fsetpos()
+
+@return The rewind function returns no value.
+Upon successful completion ftell returns the current offset. Otherwise -1 is returned and the global variable errno is set to indicate the error.
+
+The fseek function sets the file position indicator for the stream pointed to by fp.
+The new position, measured in bytes, is obtained by adding offset bytes to the position specified by whence.
+If whence is set to SEEK_SET, SEEK_CUR, or SEEK_END, the offset is relative to the start of the file,
+the current position indicator, or end-of-file, respectively.
+A successful call to the fseek function clears the end-of-file indicator for the stream and
+undoes any effects of the ungetc and ungetwc functions on the same stream.
+The fseek function call does not allows the file offset to be set beyond the end of the existing end-of-file of the file.
+
+The ftell function obtains the current value of the file position indicator for the stream pointed to by fp.
+
+The rewind function sets the file position indicator for the stream pointed to by fp to the beginning of the file. It is equivalent to:
+
+@code
+ (void)fseek(fp, 0L, SEEK_SET)
+
+@endcode
+
+except that the error indicator for the stream is also cleared.
+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.
+The fgetpos and fsetpos functions are alternate interfaces for retrieving and setting the current position
+in the file, similar to ftell and fseek, except that the current position is stored in an opaque object of
+type fpos_t pointed to by pos. These functions provide a portable way to seek to offsets larger than those that
+can be represented by a long int. They may also store additional state information in the fpos_t object to
+facilitate seeking within files containing multibyte characters with state-dependent encodings.
+Although fpos_t has traditionally been an integral type, applications cannot assume that it is;
+in particular, they must not perform arithmetic on objects of this type.
+If the stream is a wide character stream, the position specified by the combination of offset and whence must
+contain the first byte of a multibyte sequence.
+
+Notes: Specific to text-mode Support:
+ 1. To open file in text-mode use set_fmode() prior to fopen() or at the start of appln. Default file opening mode in symbian is binary.
+ For more details, see set_fmode().
+ 2. Offset set using fseek() in text-mode will not be appropriate because every newline will be converted to symbian specific
+ line-encodings( \n --> \r\n), thereby returning inappropriate offset values.
+ Thus, fseek(), ftell() will not return values as expected by the User.
+ 3. Offset value returned from ftell() can be used to pass to fseek() and
+ will not affect the functionality of any next read, write operations.
+
+
+Examples:
+@code
+/* this program shows setting file offset using fseek */
+#include <stdio.h>
+int main(void)
+{
+ int retval;
+ FILE *fp = NULL;
+ if( set_fmode('t') != 0 ) // setting text-mode as default file opening mode throughtout the appln.

+
+Note: This description also covers the following functions -
+ strerror() strerror_r()
+
+@return strerror function returns the appropriate error description string,
+ or an unknown error message if the error code is unknown. The value of errno
+ is not changed for a successful call and is set to a nonzero value upon error.
+ The strerror_r function returns 0 on success and -1 on failure, setting
+ errno.
+
+ The strerror , strerror_r and perror functions look up the error message string corresponding to an
+error number.
+
+ The strerror function accepts an error number argument errnum and returns a pointer to the corresponding
+message string.
+
+ The strerror_r function renders the same result into strerrbuf for a maximum of buflen characters and returns 0 upon success.
+
+ The perror function finds the error message corresponding to the current
+value of the global variable errno and writes it, followed by a newline, to the
+standard error file descriptor.
+If the argument string is non- NULL and does not point to the null character,
+this string is prepended to the message
+string and separated from it by
+a colon and space (": ");
+otherwise, only the error message string is printed.
+
+ If the error number is not recognized, these functions return an error message
+string containing "Unknown error: "
+followed by the error number in decimal.
+The strerror and strerror_r functions return EINVAL as a warning.
+Error numbers recognized by this implementation fall in
+the range 0 \< errnum \< sys_nerr .
+
+ If insufficient storage is provided in strerrbuf (as specified in buflen )
+to contain the error string, strerror_r returns ERANGE and strerrbuf will contain an error message that has been truncated and NUL terminated to fit the length specified by buflen .
+
+ The message strings can be accessed directly using the external
+array sys_errlist .
+The external value sys_nerr contains a count of the messages in sys_errlist .
+The use of these variables is deprecated; strerror or strerror_r should be used instead.
+
+Examples:
+@code
+#include <string.h>
+#include <stdio.h>
+#include <errno.h>
+int main()
+{
+ char *ptr = strerror(ERANGE);
+ printf("strerror(ERANGE) = %s",ptr);

+@endcode
+@code
+Output
+
+strerror(ERANGE) = Numerical result out of range
+
+@endcode
+@see intro()
+
+
+Bugs:
+
+ For unknown error numbers, the strerror function will return its result in a static buffer which
+may be overwritten by subsequent calls. The return type for strerror is missing a type-qualifier; it should actually be const char * . Programs that use the deprecated sys_errlist variable often fail to compile because they declare it
+inconsistently.

+/** @fn printf(const char *fmt, ...)
+@param fmt
+@param ...
+
+Note: This description also covers the following functions -
+ fprintf() sprintf() snprintf() asprintf() vprintf() vfprintf() vsprintf() vsnprintf() vasprintf()
+
+@return Upon successful return, these functions return the number of characters printed (not including the trailing \\0 used to end output to strings).
+The functions snprintf and vsnprintf do not write more than size bytes (including the trailing \\0).
+If the output was truncated due to this limit then the return value
+is the number of characters (not including the trailing \\0)
+which would have been written to the final string if enough
+space had been available. Thus, a return value of size or more
+means that the output was truncated.
+If an output error is encountered, a negative value is returned.
+
+The printf family of functions produces output according to a format as described below. The printf and vprintf functions write output to stdout, the standard output stream; fprintf and vfprintf write output to the given output stream; sprintf, snprintf, vsprintf, and vsnprintf write to the character string str; and asprintf and vasprintf dynamically allocate a new string with malloc.
+
+These functions write the output under the control of a format string that specifies how subsequent arguments (or arguments accessed via the variable-length argument facilities of stdarg ) are converted for output.
+
+These functions return the number of characters printed (not including the trailing '\\0' used to end output to strings) or a negative value if an output error occurs, except for snprintf and vsnprintf, which return the number of characters that would have been printed if the size were unlimited (again, not including the final '\\0').
+
+The asprintf and vasprintf functions set *ret to be a pointer to a buffer sufficiently large to hold the formatted string. This pointer should be passed to free to release the allocated storage when it is no longer needed. If sufficient space cannot be allocated, asprintf and vasprintf will return -1 and set ret to be a NULL pointer.
+
+The snprintf and vsnprintf functions will write at most size -1 of the characters printed into the output string (the size'th character then gets the terminating '\\0' );if the return value is greater than or equal to the size argument, the string was too short and some of the printed characters were discarded. The output is always null-terminated.
+
+The sprintf and vsprintf functions effectively assume an infinite size.
+
+@code
+The format string is composed of zero or more directives: ordinary characters (not % ), which are copied unchanged to the output stream; and conversion specifications, each of which results in fetching zero or more subsequent arguments. Each conversion specification is introduced by the % character. The arguments must correspond properly (after type promotion) with the conversion specifier. After the %, the following appear in sequence:
+
+ * An optional field, consisting of a decimal digit string followed by a $, specifying the next argument to access. If this field is not provided, the argument following the last argument accessed will be used. Arguments are numbered starting at 1. If unaccessed arguments in the format string are interspersed with ones that are accessed the results will be indeterminate.
+ * Zero or more of the following flags:
+ '#' The value should be converted to an "alternate form." For c, d, i, n, p, s, and u conversions, this option has no effect. For o conversions, the precision of the number is increased to force the first character of the output string to a zero (except if a zero value is printed with an explicit precision of zero). For x and X conversions, a non-zero result has the string '0x' (or '0X' for X conversions) prepended to it. For a, A, e, E, f, F, g, and G conversions, the result will always contain a decimal point, even if no digits follow it (normally, a decimal point appears in the results of those conversions only if a digit follows). For g and G conversions, trailing zeros are not removed from the result as they would otherwise be.
+ '0(zero)' Zero padding. For all conversions except n, the converted value is padded on the left with zeros rather than blanks. If a precision is given with a numeric conversion (d, i, o, u, i, x, and X), the 0 flag is ignored.
+ '-' A negative field width flag; the converted value is to be left adjusted on the field boundary. Except for n conversions, the converted value is padded on the right with blanks, rather than on the left with blanks or zeros. A - overrides a 0 if both are given.
+ ' (space)' A blank should be left before a positive number produced by a signed conversion (a, A, d, e, E, f, F, g, G, or i).
+ '+' A sign must always be placed before a number produced by a signed conversion. A + overrides a space if both are used.
+ ''' Decimal conversions (d, u, or i) or the integral portion of a floating point conversion (f or F) should be grouped and separated by thousands using the non-monetary separator returned by localeconv.
+ * An optional decimal digit string specifying a minimum field width. If the converted value has fewer characters than the field width, it will be padded with spaces on the left (or right, if the left-adjustment flag has been given) to fill out the field width.
+ * An optional precision, in the form of a period . followed by an optional digit string. If the digit string is omitted, the precision is taken as zero. This gives the minimum number of digits to appear for d, i, o, u, x, and X conversions, the number of digits to appear after the decimal-point for a, A, e, E, f, and F conversions, the maximum number of significant digits for g and G conversions, or the maximum number of characters to be printed from a string for s conversions.
+ * An optional length modifier, that specifies the size of the argument. The following length modifiers are valid for the d, i, n, o, u, x, or X conversion:
+
+ Modifier d, i o, u, x, X n
+ hh signed char unsigned char signed char *
+ h short unsigned short short *
+ l (ell) long unsigned long long *
+ ll (ell ell) long long unsigned long long long long *
+ j intmax_t uintmax_t intmax_t *
+ t ptrdiff_t (see note) ptrdiff_t *
+ z (see note) size_t (see note)
+ q (deprecated) quad_t u_quad_t quad_t *
+
+
+ Note: the t modifier, when applied to a o, u, x, or X conversion, indicates that the argument is of an unsigned type equivalent in size to a ptrdiff_t. The z modifier, when applied to a d or i conversion, indicates that the argument is of a signed type equivalent in size to a size_t. Similarly, when applied to an n conversion, it indicates that the argument is a pointer to a signed type equivalent in size to a size_t.
+
+ The following length modifier is valid for the a, A, e, E, f, F, g, or G conversion:
+
+ Modifier a, A, e, E, f, F, g, G
+ l (ell) double (ignored, same behavior as without it)
+ L long double
+
+
+ The following length modifier is valid for the c or s conversion:
+
+ Modifier c s
+ l (ell) wint_t wchar_t *
+
+
+ * A character that specifies the type of conversion to be applied.
+
+A field width or precision, or both, may be indicated by an asterisk '*' or an asterisk followed by one or more decimal digits and a '\$' instead of a digit string. In this case, an int argument supplies the field width or precision. A negative field width is treated as a left adjustment flag followed by a positive field width; a negative precision is treated as though it were missing. If a single format directive mixes positional (nn$) and non-positional arguments, the results are undefined.
+@endcode
+@code
+The conversion specifiers and their meanings are:
+diouxX
+ The int (or appropriate variant) argument is converted to signed decimal (d and i), unsigned octal (o,) unsigned decimal (u,) or unsigned hexadecimal (x and X) notation. The letters "abcdef" are used for x conversions; the letters "ABCDEF" are used for X conversions. The precision, if any, gives the minimum number of digits that must appear; if the converted value requires fewer digits, it is padded on the left with zeros.
+DOU The long int argument is converted to signed decimal, unsigned octal, or unsigned decimal, as if the format had been ld, lo, or lu respectively. These conversion characters are deprecated, and will eventually disappear.
+eE The double argument is rounded and converted in the style [-d . ddd e \*[Pm] dd] where there is one digit before the decimal-point character and the number of digits after it is equal to the precision; if the precision is missing, it is taken as 6; if the precision is zero, no decimal-point character appears. An E conversion uses the letter 'E' (rather than 'e') to introduce the exponent. The exponent always contains at least two digits; if the value is zero, the exponent is 00.
+
+For a, A, e, E, f, F, g, and G conversions, positive and negative infinity are represented as inf and -inf respectively when using the lowercase conversion character, and INF and -INF respectively when using the uppercase conversion character. Similarly, NaN is represented as nan when using the lowercase conversion, and NAN when using the uppercase conversion.
+fF The double argument is rounded and converted to decimal notation in the style [-ddd . ddd,] where the number of digits after the decimal-point character is equal to the precision specification. If the precision is missing, it is taken as 6; if the precision is explicitly zero, no decimal-point character appears. If a decimal point appears, at least one digit appears before it.
+gG The double argument is converted in style f or e (or F or E for G conversions). The precision specifies the number of significant digits. If the precision is missing, 6 digits are given; if the precision is zero, it is treated as 1. Style e is used if the exponent from its conversion is less than -4 or greater than or equal to the precision. Trailing zeros are removed from the fractional part of the result; a decimal point appears only if it is followed by at least one digit.
+aA The double argument is rounded and converted to hexadecimal notation in the style [-0x h . hhhp[\*[Pm]d,]] where the number of digits after the hexadecimal-point character is equal to the precision specification. If the precision is missing, it is taken as enough to represent the floating-point number exactly, and no rounding occurs. If the precision is zero, no hexadecimal-point character appears. The p is a literal character 'p' and the exponent consists of a positive or negative sign followed by a decimal number representing an exponent of 2. The A conversion uses the prefix "0X" (rather than "0x"), the letters "ABCDEF" (rather than "abcdef)" to represent the hex digits, and the letter 'P' (rather than 'p') to separate the mantissa and exponent.
+
+Note that there may be multiple valid ways to represent floating-point numbers in this hexadecimal format. For example, 0x3.24p+0, 0x6.48p-1 and 0xc.9p-2 are all equivalent. The format chosen depends on the internal representation of the number, but the implementation guarantees that the length of the mantissa will be minimized. Zeroes are always represented with a mantissa of 0 (preceded by a '-' if appropriate) and an exponent of +0.
+C Treated as c with the l (ell) modifier.
+c The int argument is converted to an unsigned char , and the resulting character is written.
+
+If the l (ell) modifier is used, the wint_t argument shall be converted to a wchar_t, and the (potentially multi-byte) sequence representing the single wide character is written, including any shift sequences. If a shift sequence is used, the shift state is also restored to the original state after the character.
+S Treated as s with the l (ell) modifier.
+s The char * argument is expected to be a pointer to an array of character type (pointer to a string). Characters from the array are written up to (but not including) a terminating NUL character; if a precision is specified, no more than the number specified are written. If a precision is given, no null character need be present; if the precision is not specified, or is greater than the size of the array, the array must contain a terminating NUL character.
+
+If the l (ell) modifier is used, the wchar_t * argument is expected to be a pointer to an array of wide characters (pointer to a wide string). For each wide character in the string, the (potentially multi-byte) sequence representing the wide character is written, including any shift sequences. If any shift sequence is used, the shift state is also restored to the original state after the string. Wide characters from the array are written up to (but not including) a terminating wide NUL character; if a precision is specified, no more than the number of bytes specified are written (including shift sequences). Partial characters are never written. If a precision is given, no null character need be present; if the precision is not specified, or is greater than the number of bytes required to render the multibyte representation of the string, the array must contain a terminating wide NUL character.
+p The void * pointer argument is printed in hexadecimal (as if by '%#x' or '%#lx' ).
+n The number of characters written so far is stored into the integer indicated by the int * (or variant) pointer argument. No argument is converted.
+ % A '%' is written. No argument is converted. The complete conversion specification is '%%'.
+
+@endcode
+
+The decimal point character is defined in the program's locale (category LC_NUMERIC ).
+
+In no case does a non-existent or small field width cause truncation of a numeric field; if the result of a conversion is wider than the field width, the field is expanded to contain the conversion result.
+
+
+
+Examples:
+
+ To print a date and time in the form "Sunday, July 3, 10:02",
+where weekday and month are pointers to strings:

+
+Security considerations:
+
+ The sprintf and vsprintf functions are easily misused in a manner which enables malicious users
+to arbitrarily change a running program's functionality through
+a buffer overflow attack.
+Because sprintf and vsprintf assume an infinitely long string,
+callers must be careful not to overflow the actual space;
+this is often hard to assure.
+For safety, programmers should use the snprintf interface instead.
+
+ The printf and sprintf family of functions are also easily misused in a manner
+allowing malicious users to arbitrarily change a running program's
+functionality by either causing the program
+to print potentially sensitive data "left on the stack",
+or causing it to generate a memory fault or bus error
+by dereferencing an invalid pointer. \%n can be used to write arbitrary data to potentially carefully-selected
+addresses.
+Programmers are therefore strongly advised to never pass untrusted strings
+as the format argument, as an attacker can put format specifiers in the string
+to mangle your stack,
+leading to a possible security hole.
+This holds true even if the string was built using a function like snprintf, as the resulting string may still contain user-supplied conversion specifiers
+for later interpolation by printf. Always use the proper secure idiom:
+
+@code
+snprintf(buffer, sizeof(buffer), "%s", string);
+@endcode
+@return None of these functions support long double length modifiers. Floating point
+format specifiers support a maximum precision of 15 digits.
+
+@see printf()
+@see scanf()
+@see setlocale()
+@see wprintf()
+
+
+Bugs:
+
+ The conversion formats \%D, \%O, and \%U are not standard and
+are provided only for backward compatibility.
+The effect of padding the \%p format with zeros (either by the 0 flag or by specifying a precision), and the benign effect (i.e., none)
+of the \# flag on \%n and \%p conversions, as well as other
+nonsensical combinations such as \%Ld, are not standard; such combinations
+should be avoided. The printf family of functions do not correctly handle multibyte characters in the format argument.

+@return The rename() function returns the value 0 if successful; otherwise the
+value -1 is returned and the global variable errno is set to indicate the
+error.
+
+ The rename system call
+causes the link named oldpath to be renamed as to. If to exists, it is first removed.
+Both oldpath and newpath must be of the same type (that is, both directories or both
+non-directories), and must reside on the same file system.
+
+ If the final component of oldpath is a symbolic link,
+the symbolic link is renamed,
+not the file or directory to which it points.
+
+ If a file with a symbolic link pointing to it is renamed, then
+a subsequent open call on the symbolic link file would automatically remove the link file, i.e
+consider a symbolic file link.x pointing to a file abc.x. If the file abc.x is
+renamed to abcd.x then, a subsequent open call on link.x file would automatically remove link.x file.
+
+ Note:
+ -# rename() does not differentiate between hard and soft links.
+ -# If the specified file is a dangling link file, then this link file will be automatically removed.
+
+
+
+ Limitations:
+
+ - The to and from parameters in rename() shouldn't exceed 256 characters.
+ - The rename() function fails if either from or to parameters refer to a file in use (that is, if either file is held open by a process).
+ - The parent directory time stamps are not affected when rename() creates a new entry. The time stamps for the new entry like time of last access
+ is equal to time of last data modification. The time of last file status change for any file would be 0.
+ - KErrNotReady of Symbian error code is mapped to ENOENT, which typically means drive

+
+Note: This description also covers the following functions -
+ fscanf() sscanf() vscanf() vsscanf() vfscanf()
+
+@return These functions return the number of input items assigned, which
+can be fewer than provided for, or even zero, in the event of a matching failure.
+Zero indicates that, while there was input available, no conversions were assigned;
+typically this is due to an invalid input character, such as an alphabetic character
+for a '\%d' conversion. The value EOF is returned if an input failure occurs before any conversion such
+as an end-of-file occurs. If an error or end-of-file occurs after conversion has
+begun, the number of conversions which were successfully completed is returned.
+
+
+
+ The scanf family of functions scans input according to a format as described below. This format may contain conversion specifiers; the results from such conversions, if any, are
+ stored through the pointer arguments. The scanf function reads input from the standard input stream stdin, fscanf reads input from the stream pointer stream, and sscanf reads its input from the character string pointed to by str. The vfscanf function is analogous to vfprintf and reads input from the stream pointer stream using a variable argument list of pointers (see stdarg).
+
+ The vscanf function scans a variable argument list from the standard input
+ and the vsscanf function scans it from a string; these are analogous to the vprintf and vsprintf functions respectively. Each successive pointer argument must correspond properly with each successive conversion
+ specifier (but see the * conversion below). All conversions are introduced by the \% (percent sign) character. The format string may also contain other characters. White space (such as
+ blanks, tabs, or newlines) in the format string match any amount of white space, including none, in the
+ input. Everything else matches only itself. Scanning stops when an input character
+ does not match such a format character. Scanning also stops when an input conversion
+ cannot be made (see below).
+
+
+Examples:
+@code
+/* this program shows scanning from file using fscanf */
+#include <stdio.h>

+/** @fn setbuf(FILE * fp, char * buf)
+@param fp
+@param buf
+
+Note: This description also covers the following functions -
+ setbuffer() setlinebuf() setvbuf()
+
+The three types of buffering available are unbuffered, block buffered, and line buffered. When an output stream is unbuffered, information appears on the destination file or terminal as soon as written; when it is block buffered many characters are saved up and written as a block; when it is line buffered characters are saved up until a newline is output or input is read from any stream attached to a terminal device (typically stdin). The function fflush may be used to force the block out early.
+
+Normally all files are block buffered. When the first I/O operation occurs on a file, malloc is called, and an optimally-sized buffer is obtained. If a stream refers to a terminal (as stdout normally does) it is line buffered. The standard error stream stderr is always unbuffered.
+
+The setvbuf function may be used to alter the buffering behavior of a stream. The mode argument must be one of the following three macros:
+
+@code
+_IONBF
+ unbuffered
+_IOLBF
+ line buffered
+_IOFBF
+ fully buffered
+@endcode
+
+The size argument may be given as zero to obtain deferred optimal-size buffer allocation as usual. If it is not zero, then except for unbuffered files, the buf argument should point to a buffer at least size bytes long; this buffer will be used instead of the current buffer. If buf is not NULL, it is the caller's responsibility to free this buffer after closing the stream.
+
+The setvbuf function may be used at any time, but may have peculiar side effects (such as discarding input or flushing output) if the stream is "active". Portable applications should call it only once on any given stream, and before any I/O is performed.
+
+The other three calls are, in effect, simply aliases for calls to setvbuf. Except for the lack of a return value, the setbuf function is exactly equivalent to the call
+
+@code
+ setvbuf(stream, buf, buf ? _IOFBF : _IONBF, BUFSIZ);
+@endcode
+
+The setbuffer function is the same, except that the size of the buffer is up to the caller, rather than being determined by the default BUFSIZ. The setlinebuf function is exactly equivalent to the call:
+@code
+ setvbuf(stream, (char *)NULL, _IOLBF, 0);
+@endcode
+
+
+Examples:
+@code
+/* this program shows setting up a buffer using setbuf * /
+#include <stdio.h>
+int main()
+{
+ FILE *fp = NULL;
+ char FullBuf[100];

+
+Note: This description also covers the following functions -
+ tmpnam() tempnam()
+
+@return The tmpfile function
+returns a pointer to an open file stream on success, and a NULL pointer
+on error. The tmpnam and tempfile functions
+return a pointer to a file name on success, and a NULL pointer
+on error.
+
+ The tmpfile function
+returns a pointer to a stream associated with a file descriptor returned
+by the routine mkstemp .
+The created file is unlinked before tmpfile returns, causing the file to be automatically deleted when the last
+reference to it is closed.
+The file is opened with the access value 'w+'.
+The file is created in the directory determined by the environment variable TMPDIR if set.
+The default location if TMPDIR is not set is /tmp .
+
+@code
+ The tmpnam function returns a pointer to a file name, in the P_tmpdir directory, which did not reference an existing file at some
+ indeterminate point in the past. P_tmpdir is defined in the include file #include <stdio.h>. If the argument str is non- NULL , the file name is copied to the buffer it references. Otherwise,
+ the file name is copied to a static buffer. In either case, tmpnam returns a pointer to the file name.
+@endcode
+ The buffer referenced by str is expected to be at least L_tmpnam bytes in length. L_tmpnam is defined in the include file \#include \<stdio.h\>.
+
+ The tempnam function
+is similar to tmpnam ,
+but provides the ability to specify the directory which will
+contain the temporary file and the file name prefix.
+
+ The environment variable TMPDIR (if set), the argument tmpdir (if non- NULL ),
+the directory P_tmpdir ,
+and the directory /tmp are tried, in the listed order, as directories in which to store the
+temporary file.
+
+ The argument prefix , if non- NULL , is used to specify a file name prefix, which will be the
+ first part of the created file name. The tempnam function allocates memory in which to store the file name;
+ the returned pointer may be used as a subsequent argument to free .
+
+Examples:
+@code
+#include<stdio.h> //SEEK_SET, printf, tmpfile, FILE
+#include<sys/stat.h> //S_IWUSR
+
+int main()
+{

+
+Notes:
+
+1. This description also covers the pclose() function.
+
+2. When a child process created using popen() exits, the parent process receives a SIGCHLD signal.
+
+@return The popen function returns NULL if the fork
+or pipe calls fail,
+or if it cannot allocate memory. The pclose function returns -1 if stream is not associated with a "popened" command, if stream already "pclosed" or if wait4
+returns an error.
+
+ The popen function opens a process by creating a pipe, forking, and invoking
+the shell. Since a pipe is by definition unidirectional, the type argument may specify only reading or writing, not both. The resulting
+stream is correspondingly read-only ("r") or write-only "w". If type is anything
+other than this the behavior is undefined.
+
+ The command argument is a pointer to a null-terminated string containing a shell command line.
+This command is passed to /bin/sh using the - c flag; interpretation, if any, is performed by the shell.
+
+ The return value from popen is a normal standard I/O stream in all respects save that it must be closed with pclose rather than fclose. Writing to such a stream writes to the standard input of the
+ command. The command's standard output is the same as that of the process
+ that called popen, unless this is altered by the command itself. Conversely, reading
+ from a "popened" stream reads the command's standard output, and the command's
+ standard input is the same as that of the process that called popen.
+
+ Note that output popen streams are fully buffered by default.
+
+ The pclose function waits for the associated process to terminate
+and returns the exit status of the command
+as returned by
+wait4.
+
+
+
+@see pipe()
+@see fclose()
+@see fflush()
+@see fopen()
+@see system()
+
+
+Bugs:
+
+ Since the standard input of a command opened for reading
+shares its seek offset with the process that called popen, if the original process has done a buffered read,
+the command's input position may not be as expected.
+Similarly, the output from a command opened for writing
+may become intermingled with that of the original process.
+The latter can be avoided by calling fflush before popen. Failure to execute the shell
+is indistinguishable from the shell's failure to execute command,
+or an immediate exit of the command.
+The only hint is an exit status of 127. The popen function
+always calls sh and never calls csh.

+/** @fn flockfile(FILE *fp)
+@param fp
+
+Note: This description also covers the following functions -
+ ftrylockfile() funlockfile()
+
+@return The flockfile and funlockfile functions return no value. The ftrylockfile function
+returns zero if the stream was successfully locked,non-zero otherwise.
+
+These functions provide explicit application-level locking of stdio streams.
+They can be used to avoid output from multiple threads being interspersed,
+input being dispersed among multiple readers, and to avoid the overhead
+of locking the stream for each operation.
+
+ The flockfile function acquires an exclusive lock on the specified stream.
+ If another thread has already locked the stream flockfile will block until the lock is released.
+
+ The ftrylockfile function is a non-blocking version of flockfile; if the lock cannot be acquired immediately ftrylockfile returns non-zero instead of blocking.
+
+ The funlockfile function releases the lock on a stream acquired by an earlier call to flockfile or ftrylockfile.
+
+ These functions behave as if there is a lock count associated with each stream.
+ Each time flockfile is called on the stream the count is incremented and each
+ time funlockfile is called on the stream the count is decremented. The
+ lock is only actually released when the count reaches zero.

+Otherwise,

+
+The lseek system call repositions the offset of the file descriptor fildes to the argument offset according to the directive whence.
+The argument fildes must be an open file descriptor. The lseek system call repositions the file position pointer associated with the file descriptor fildes as follows:
+@code
+ If whence is SEEK_SET, the offset is set to offset bytes.
+ If whence is SEEK_CUR, the offset is set to its current location plus offset bytes.
+ If whence is SEEK_END, the offset is set to the size of the file plus offset bytes.
+@endcode
+Some devices are incapable of seeking. The value of the pointer associated with such a device is undefined.
+
+Note: lseek function allows the file offset to be set beyond the existing end-of-file, data in the seeked slot is undefined, and hence the read operation in seeked slot is
+undefined untill data is actually written into it. lseek beyond existing end-of-file increases the file size accordingly.

+@param mode
+@return set_fmode() returns 0 on success, otherwise returns -1 with an errno set to EINVAL.
+
+set_fmode(), get_fmode() are used to provide text-mode support.
+
+Using set_fmode(), User can set file opening mode explicitly to either text or binary i.e. it can take only 't' or 'b' as parameter.
+
+Notes: 1>. User is supposed to use this before opening a file or at the start of the application. The mode that is set using set_fmode()
+ is fixed till the file is closed or till the application terminates. In case the user wants to change the mode once the file
+ has been opened and before it is closed, the buffer needs to be flushed explicitly.
+
+ 2>. If the user mixes the two file modes, there might be unexpected behaviour.
+ For example, a file is opened in text mode, written with 20 bytes and closed.
+ Again the file is opened in binary mode and 20 bytes is read. If the 20 bytes written earlier had '\n's among them,
+ the read data will not be complete.
+
+Examples:
+@code
+/*
+ * Detailed description : To set the mode of a file to either text/binary explicitly
+ */
+#include <stdio.h>
+int main()
+{
+ int ret;
