freopen_s, _wfreopen_s

 

The new home for Visual Studio documentation is Visual Studio 2017 Documentation on docs.microsoft.com.

The latest version of this topic can be found at freopen_s, _wfreopen_s.

Reassigns a file pointer. These versions of freopen, _wfreopen have security enhancements, as described in Security Features in the CRT.

Syntax

errno_t freopen(   
   FILE** pFile,  
   const char *path,  
   const char *mode,  
   FILE *stream   
);  
errno_t _wfreopen(   
   FILE** pFile,  
   const wchar_t *path,  
   const wchar_t *mode,  
   FILE *stream   
);  

Parameters

[out] pFile
A pointer to the file pointer to be provided by the call.

[in] path
Path of new file.

[in] mode
Type of access permitted.

[in] stream
Pointer to FILE structure.

Return Value

Each of these functions returns an error code. If an error occurs, the original file is closed.

Remarks

The freopen_s function closes the file currently associated with stream and reassigns stream to the file specified by path. _wfreopen_s is a wide-character version of _freopen_s; the path and mode arguments to _wfreopen_s are wide-character strings. _wfreopen_s and _freopen_s behave identically otherwise.

If any of pFile, path, mode, or stream are NULL, or if path is an empty string, these functions invoke the invalid parameter handler, as described in Parameter Validation. If execution is allowed to continue, these functions set errno to EINVAL and return EINVAL.

freopen_s is typically used to redirect the pre-opened files stdin, stdout, and stderr to files specified by the user. The new file associated with stream is opened with mode, which is a character string specifying the type of access requested for the file, as follows:

"r"
Opens for reading. If the file does not exist or cannot be found, the freopen_s call fails.

"w"
Opens an empty file for writing. If the given file exists, its contents are destroyed.

"a"
Opens for writing at the end of the file (appending) without removing the EOF marker before writing new data to the file; creates the file first if it does not exist.

"r+"
Opens for both reading and writing. (The file must exist.)

"w+"
Opens an empty file for both reading and writing. If the given file exists, its contents are destroyed.

"a+"
Opens for reading and appending; the appending operation includes the removal of the EOF marker before new data is written to the file and the EOF marker is restored after writing is complete; creates the file first if it does not exist.

Use the "w" and "w+" types with care, as they can destroy existing files.

When a file is opened with the "a" or "a+" access type, all write operations take place at the end of the file. Although the file pointer can be repositioned using fseek or rewind, the file pointer is always moved back to the end of the file before any write operation is carried out. Thus, existing data cannot be overwritten.

The "a" mode does not remove the EOF marker before appending to the file. After appending has occurred, the MS-DOS TYPE command only shows data up to the original EOF marker and not any data appended to the file. The "a+" mode does remove the EOF marker before appending to the file. After appending, the MS-DOS TYPE command shows all data in the file. The "a+" mode is required for appending to a stream file that is terminated with the CTRL+Z EOF marker.

When the "r+",``"w+", or "a+" access type is specified, both reading and writing are allowed (the file is said to be open for "update"). However, when you switch between reading and writing, there must be an intervening fsetpos, fseek, or rewind operation. The current position can be specified for the fsetpos or fseek operation, if desired. In addition to the above values, one of the following characters may be included in the mode string to specify the translation mode for new lines.

t
Open in text (translated) mode; carriage return–linefeed (CR-LF) combinations are translated into single linefeed (LF) characters on input; LF characters are translated to CR-LF combinations on output. Also, CTRL+Z is interpreted as an end-of-file character on input. In files opened for reading or for writing and reading with "a+", the run-time library checks for a CTRL+Z at the end of the file and removes it, if possible. This is done because using fseek and ftell to move within a file may cause fseek to behave improperly near the end of the file. The t option is a Microsoft extension that should not be used where ANSI portability is desired.

b
Open in binary (untranslated) mode; the above translations are suppressed.

If t or b is not given in mode, the default translation mode is defined by the global variable _fmode. If t or b is prefixed to the argument, the function fails and returns NULL.

For a discussion of text and binary modes, see Text and Binary Mode File I/O.

Requirements

Function Required header
freopen_s <stdio.h>
_wfreopen_s <stdio.h> or <wchar.h>

The console is not supported in Windows 8.x Store apps. The standard stream handles that are associated with the console—stdin, stdout, and stderr—must be redirected before C run-time functions can use them in Windows 8.x Store apps. For additional compatibility information, see Compatibility.

Example

// crt_freopen_s.c  
// This program reassigns stderr to the file  
// named FREOPEN.OUT and writes a line to that file.  
  
#include <stdio.h>  
#include <stdlib.h>  
  
FILE *stream;  
  
int main( void )  
{  
   errno_t err;  
   // Reassign "stderr" to "freopen.out":   
   err = freopen_s( &stream, "freopen.out", "w", stderr );  
  
   if( err != 0 )  
      fprintf( stdout, "error on freopen\n" );  
   else  
   {  
      fprintf( stdout, "successfully reassigned\n" ); fflush( stdout );  
      fprintf( stream, "This will go to the file 'freopen.out'\n" );  
      fclose( stream );  
   }  
   system( "type freopen.out" );  
}  
successfully reassigned  
This will go to the file 'freopen.out'
