This manual page is part of the POSIX Programmer's Manual. The Linux implementation of this interface

Application Usage

       None.

Description

       The  functionality  described  on  this  reference  page is aligned with the ISO C standard. Any conflict
       between the requirements described  here  and  the  ISO C  standard  is  unintentional.  This  volume  of
       POSIX.1‐2017 defers to the ISO C standard.

       The call:

           rewind(stream)

       shall be equivalent to:

           (void) fseek(stream, 0L, SEEK_SET)

       except that rewind() shall also clear the error indicator.

       Since  rewind() does not return a value, an application wishing to detect errors should clear errno, then
       call rewind(), and if errno is non-zero, assume an error has occurred.

Errors

       Refer to fseek() with the exception of [EINVAL] which does not apply.

       Thefollowingsectionsareinformative.

Examples

       None.

Future Directions

       None.

Name

       rewind — reset the file position indicator in a stream

Prolog

       This  manual  page  is part of the POSIX Programmer's Manual.  The Linux implementation of this interface
       may differ (consult the corresponding Linux manual page for details of Linux behavior), or the  interface
       may not be implemented on Linux.

Rationale

       None.

Return Value

       The rewind() function shall not return a value.
