Purpose
Reads bytes from the current read location.
Syntax
unsigned int CWB_ENTRY cwbOBJ_ReadSplF(
cwbOBJ_ObjHandle splFHandle,
char *bBuffer,
unsigned long bytesToRead,
unsigned long *bytesRead,
cwbSV_ErrHandle errorHandle);
Parameters
- cwbOBJ_ObjHandle splFHandle - input
- Handle of the spooled file to be read from.
- char *buffer - input
- Pointer to buffer to hold the bytes read from the spooled file.
- unsigned long bytesToRead - input
- Maximum number of bytes to read. The number read may be less than this.
- unsigned long *bytesRead - output
- Number of bytes actually read.
- cwbSV_ErrHandle errorHandle - output
- Optional, may be 0. Any returned messages will be written to this object.
It is created with the cwbSV_CreateErrHandle() API. The
messages may be retrieved through the cwbSV_GetErrText() API.
If the parameter is set to zero, no messages will be retrievable.
Return Codes
The following list shows common return
values.
- CWB_NO_ERROR
- Successful completion.
- CWB_NOT_ENOUGH_MEMORY
- Insufficient memory.
- CWB_INVALID_HANDLE
- Handle is not valid spooled file handle.
- CWBOBJ_RC_HOST_ERROR
- Host error occurred. Text may be in errorHandle.
- CWBOBJ_RC_SPLFNOTOPEN
- Spooled file has not been opened yet.
- CWBOBJ_RC_SPLFENDOFFILE
- The end of file was read.
Usage
The cwbOBJ_OpenSplF() API
must be called with this spooled fil handle before this API is called. If
the end of file is reached when reading, the return code will be CWBOBJ_SPLF_ENDOFFILE
and bytesRead will contain the actual number of bytes read.
