Opens a file using the C runtime library used by the IMSL C Stat Library.
#include <imsls.h>
#include <stdio.h>
FILE *imsls_fopen (char *filename, char *mode)
char *filename
(Input)
The name of the file to be opened.
char *mode
(Input)
The type of access to be permitted to the file. This string is passed
to the C runtime function fopen, which
determines the valid mode values.
A pointer to the file structure, FILE, defined in stdio.h. To close the file, use imsls_fclose.
The function imsls_fopen opens a file using the C runtime library used by the IMSL C Stat Library. It is a wrapper around the standard C runtime function fopen.
Function imsls_fopen can always be used to open a file which will be used by the IMSL C Stat Library, but is required if an application has linked to multiple copies of the C runtime library, with each copy having its own set of file instructions. In this situation, using the C runtime function fopen can result in a file being opened with one copy of the C runtime library and reading or writing to it with a different copy, which may cause abnormal behavior or termination. Using imsls_fopen ensures that the same C runtime library is used for both the open operation and reading and writing within an IMSL C Stat Library function to which the file pointer has been passed as an input argument.
Note that imsls_fopen
should only be used to open a file whose file pointer will be input to an IMSL C
Stat Library function. Use imsls_fclose
to close files opened with imsls_fopen.
This function is not prototyped in imsl.h.
This is to avoid including stdio.h
within imsl.h.
This example writes a matrix to the file matrix.txt. The function imsls_fopen is used to open a file. This function returns a file pointer, which is passed to imsls_output_file. The matrix is written by imsls_f_write_matrix, which uses the file pointer from imsls_output_file. The function imsls_fclose is then used to close the file.
#include <imsls.h>
#include <stdio.h>
extern FILE* imsls_fopen(char* filename, char* mode);
extern void imsls_fclose(FILE* file);
int main()
{
FILE *file;
float a[] = {
1.1, 2.4, 3.6,
4.3, 5.1, 6.7,
7.2, 8.9, 9.3
};
file = imsls_fopen("matrix.txt", "w");
imsls_output_file(IMSLS_SET_OUTPUT_FILE, file,
0);
imsls_f_write_matrix("Matrix written matrix.txt",
3, 3, a, 0);
imsls_fclose(file);
}
