VMS Help CRTL, feof_unlocked, Description *Conan The Librarian |
The reentrant version of the feof function is locked against
multiple threads calling it simultaneously. This incurs overhead
to ensure integrity of the stream. The unlocked version of this
call, feof_unlocked can be used to avoid the overhead. The feof_
unlocked function is functionally identical to the feof function,
except that it is not required to be implemented in a thread-
safe manner. The feof_unlocked function can be safely used only
within a scope that is protected by the flockfile and funlockfile
functions used as a pair. The caller must ensure that the stream
is locked before feof_unlocked is used.
See also flockfile, ftrylockfile, and funlockfile.
