SYNOPSIS

size_t  xt_ff_write(xt_ff_t *stream, void * ptr,
size_t size, size_t nmemb)

ARGUMENTS

stream  Pointer to an xt_ff_t structure
ptr     Memory location from which data are written
size    Size of one object being read
nmemb   Number of objects to read

DESCRIPTION

xt_ff_write(3) writes a fixed number of bytes (size * nmemb) to stream from address ptr, which should point to an object (if nmemb == 1) or array of "nmemb" objects of size "size".

RETURN VALUES

The number of objects (not bytes) successfully written

EXAMPLES

my_type_t   list[NUM_OBJECTS];
xt_ff_t     *stream;
stream = xt_ff_open("myfile", O_RDONLY);
