uint8_t  oflag 
)

Create a file object and open it in the current working directory.

Parameters
[in]pathA path with a valid 8.3 DOS name for a file to be opened.

Member Function Documentation

uint32_t SdBaseFile::available ( )
inline
Returns
number of bytes available from yhe current position to EOF
void SdBaseFile::clearWriteError ( )
inline

Set writeError to zero

bool SdBaseFile::close ( )

Close a file and force cached data and directory information to be written to the storage device.

Returns
The value one, true, is returned for success and the value zero, false, is returned for failure. Reasons for failure include no file is open or an I/O error.
bool SdBaseFile::contiguousRange ( uint32_t *  bgnBlock,
uint32_t *  endBlock 
)

Check for contiguous file and return its raw block range.

Parameters
[out]bgnBlockthe first block address for the file.
[out]endBlockthe last block address for the file.
Returns
The value one, true, is returned for success and the value zero, false, is returned for failure. Reasons for failure include file is not contiguous, file has zero length or an I/O error occurred.
bool SdBaseFile::createContiguous ( SdBaseFile dirFile,
const char *  path,
uint32_t  size 
)

Create and open a new contiguous file of a specified size.

Note
This function only supports short DOS 8.3 names. See open() for more information.
Parameters
[in]dirFileThe directory where the file will be created.
[in]pathA path with a valid DOS 8.3 file name.
[in]sizeThe desired file size.
Returns
The value one, true, is returned for success and the value zero, false, is returned for failure. Reasons for failure include path contains an invalid DOS 8.3 file name, the FAT volume has not been initialized, a file is already open, the file already exists, the root directory is full or an I/O error.
uint32_t SdBaseFile::curCluster ( ) const
inline
Returns
The current cluster number for a file or directory.
uint32_t SdBaseFile::curPosition ( ) const
inline
Returns
The current position for a file or directory.
static SdBaseFile* SdBaseFile::cwd ( )
inlinestatic
Returns
Current working directory
static void SdBaseFile::dateTimeCallback ( void(*)(uint16_t *date, uint16_t *time)  dateTime)
inlinestatic

Set the date/time callback function

Parameters
[in]dateTimeThe user's call back function. The callback function is of the form:
void dateTime(uint16_t* date, uint16_t* time) {
uint16_t year;
uint8_t month, day, hour, minute, second;
// User gets date and time from GPS or real-time clock here
// return date using FAT_DATE macro to format fields
*date = FAT_DATE(year, month, day);
// return time using FAT_TIME macro to format fields
*time = FAT_TIME(hour, minute, second);
}

Sets the function that is called when a file is created or when a file's directory entry is modified by sync(). All timestamps, access, creation, and modify, are set when a file is created. sync() maintains the last access date and last modify date/time.

See the timestamp() function.

static void SdBaseFile::dateTimeCallbackCancel ( )
inlinestatic

Cancel the date/time callback function.

bool SdBaseFile::dirEntry ( dir_t *  dir)

Return a file's directory entry.

Parameters
[out]dirLocation for return of the file's directory entry.
Returns
The value one, true, is returned for success and the value zero, false, is returned for failure.
void SdBaseFile::dirName ( const dir_t &  dir,

Format the name field of dir into the 13 byte array name in standard 8.3 short name format.

Parameters
[in]dirThe directory structure containing the name.
[out]nameA 13 byte char array for the formatted name.
bool SdBaseFile::exists ( const char *  name)

Test for the existence of a file in a directory

Parameters
[in]nameName of the file to be tested for.

true if the file exists else false.
int16_t SdBaseFile::fgets ( char *  str,
int16_t  num,
char *  delim = 0 
)

Get a string from a file.

fgets() reads bytes from a file into the array pointed to by str, until num - 1 bytes are read, or a delimiter is read and transferred to str, or end-of-file is encountered. The string is then terminated with a null byte.

fgets() deletes CR, '\r', from the string. This insures only a '\n' terminates the string for Windows text files which use CRLF for newline.

Parameters
[out]strPointer to the array where the string is stored.
[in]numMaximum number of characters to be read (including the final null byte). Usually the length of the array str is used.
[in]delimOptional set of delimiters. The default is "\n".
Returns
For success fgets() returns the length of the string in str. If no data is read, fgets() returns zero for EOF or -1 if an error occurred.

Open a file or directory by name.

Parameters
[in]dirFileAn open SdFat instance for the directory containing the file to be opened.
[in]pathA path with a valid 8.3 DOS name for a file to be opened.
[in]oflagValues for oflag are constructed by a bitwise-inclusive OR of flags from the following list

O_READ - Open for reading.

O_RDONLY - Same as O_READ.

O_WRITE - Open for writing.

O_WRONLY - Same as O_WRITE.

O_RDWR - Open for reading and writing.

O_APPEND - If set, the file offset shall be set to the end of the file prior to each write.

O_AT_END - Set the initial position at the end of the file.

O_CREAT - If the file exists, this flag has no effect except as noted under O_EXCL below. Otherwise, the file shall be created

O_EXCL - If O_CREAT and O_EXCL are set, open() shall fail if the file exists.

O_SYNC - Call sync() after each write. This flag should not be used with write(uint8_t), write_P(PGM_P), writeln_P(PGM_P), or the Arduino Print class. These functions do character at a time writes so sync() will be called after each byte.

O_TRUNC - If the file exists and is a regular file, and the file is successfully opened and is not read only, its length shall be truncated to 0.

WARNING: A given file must not be opened by more than one SdBaseFile object of file corruption may occur.

Note
Directory files must be opened read only. Write and truncation is not allowed for directory files.
Returns
The value one, true, is returned for success and the value zero, false, is returned for failure. Reasons for failure include this file is already open, dirFile is not a directory, path is invalid, the file does not exist or can't be opened in the access mode specified by oflag.

Returns
The value one, true, is returned for success and the value zero, false, is returned for failure.
bool SdBaseFile::openNext ( SdBaseFile dirFile,
uint8_t  oflag 
)

Open the next file or subdirectory in a directory.

Parameters
[in]dirFileAn open SdFat instance for the directory containing the file to be opened.
