Re: eof() for file descriptors missing?

I am trying to find the eof function so that i can loop through a file until the end of file. I am using a mixture of NSFileHandle and c calls so I am not looking for feof.

There is no eof() function in ISO C99.

If you're using NSFileHandle readDataOfLength:, you're at EOF if the size of the data is 0 or less than the length desired.

If you're using read(), you're at EOF when read returns 0.

If you're using fread, you're at EOF when fread returns a size_ that's 0 or smaller than nitems, or feof() returns true.

Are you thinking of the .eof() member function in C++, or the EOF wide character file marker in wchar.h?
