Hi,
I need to read to the file end of a binary file connection. My idea is
to do this in a while loop: while(actual.position < file.size) readBin()
... How can I determine the file size?
> p9lr
description class mode text
opened
"p9lr_all.mea" "file" "rb"
"binary"
"opened"
can read can write
"yes" "no"
> seek(p9lr, 0, "end")
[1] 0
> seek(p9lr)
[1] 0
Looks for me that seek() doesn't re-position the connection, or have I
missed something?. R version 1.4.0 on Linux i386.
Thanks, Sven
