_chsize

 

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 _chsize.

Changes the size of a file. A more secure version is available; see _chsize_s.

Syntax

int _chsize(   
   int fd,  
   long size   
);  

Parameters

fd
File descriptor referring to an open file.

size
New length of the file in bytes.

Return Value

_chsize returns the value 0 if the file size is successfully changed. A return value of –1 indicates an error: errno is set to EACCES if the specified file is locked against access, to EBADF if the specified file is read-only or the descriptor is invalid, ENOSPC if no space is left on the device, or EINVAL if size is less than zero.

See _doserrno, errno, _sys_errlist, and _sys_nerr for more information on these, and other, return codes.

Remarks

The _chsize function extends or truncates the file associated with fd to the length specified by size. The file must be open in a mode that permits writing. Null characters ('\0') are appended if the file is extended. If the file is truncated, all data from the end of the shortened file to the original length of the file is lost.

This function validates its parameters. If size is less than zero or fd is a bad file descriptor, the invalid parameter handler is invoked, as described in Parameter Validation.

Requirements

Routine Required header Optional header
_chsize <io.h> <errno.h>

Example

// crt_chsize.c  
// This program uses _filelength to report the size  
// of a file before and after modifying it with _chsize.  
  
#include <io.h>  
#include <fcntl.h>  
#include <sys/types.h>  
#include <sys/stat.h>  
#include <stdio.h>  
#include <share.h>  
  
int main( void )  
{  
   int fh, result;  
   unsigned int nbytes = BUFSIZ;  
  
   // Open a file   
   if( _sopen_s( &fh, "data", _O_RDWR | _O_CREAT, _SH_DENYNO,  
                 _S_IREAD | _S_IWRITE ) == 0 )  
   {  
      printf( "File length before: %ld\n", _filelength( fh ) );  
      if( ( result = _chsize( fh, 329678 ) ) == 0 )  
         printf( "Size successfully changed\n" );  
      else  
         printf( "Problem in changing the size\n" );  
      printf( "File length after:  %ld\n", _filelength( fh ) );  
      _close( fh );  
   }  
}  
File length before: 0  
Size successfully changed  
File length after:  329678
