Homemade fstat to get file size, always return 0 length.
- by Fred
Hello, I am trying to use my own function to get the file size from a file. I'll use this to allocate memory for a data structure to hold the information on the file.
The file size function looks like this:
long fileSize(FILE *fp){
long start;
fflush(fp);
rewind(fp);
start = ftell(fp);
return (fseek(fp, 0L, SEEK_END) - start);
}
Any ideas what I'm doing wrong here?
