(PHP 4 >= 4.3.2, PHP 5)
streamWrapper::stream_seek — Seeks to specific location in a stream
$offset
, int $whence = SEEK_SET
)This method is called in response to fseek().
The read/write position of the stream should be updated according to the
offset and whence.
offset
The stream offset to seek to.
whence
Possible values:
SEEK_SET - Set position equal to offset bytes.SEEK_CUR - Set position to current location plus offset.SEEK_END - Set position to end-of-file plus offset.
Return TRUE if the position was updated, FALSE otherwise.
Nota:
If not implemented,
FALSEis assumed as the return value.
Nota:
Upon success, streamWrapper::stream_tell() is called directly after calling streamWrapper::stream_seek(). If streamWrapper::stream_tell() fails, the return value to the caller function will be set to
FALSE
Nota:
Not all seeks operations on the stream will result in this function being called. PHP streams have read buffering enabled by default (see also stream_set_read_buffer()) and seeking may be done by merely moving the buffer pointer.
