_chsize_s

Changes the size of a file. This is a version of _chsize with security enhancements as described in Security Features in the CRT.

errno_t _chsize_s( 
   int fd,
   __int64 size 
);

Parameters

  • fd
    File descriptor referring to an open file.

  • size
    New length of the file in bytes.

Return Value

_chsize_s returns the value 0 if the file size is successfully changed. A nonzero return value indicates an error: the return value is EACCES if the specified file is locked against access, EBADF if the specified file is read-only or the descriptor is invalid, ENOSPC if no space is left on the device, or EINVAL if size is less than zero. errno is set to the same value.

For more information about these and other return codes, see _doserrno, errno, _sys_errlist, and _sys_nerr.

Remarks

The _chsize_s function extends or truncates the file associated with fd to the length specified by size. The file must be open in a mode that permits writing. Null characters ('\0') are appended if the file is extended. If the file is truncated, all data from the end of the shortened file to the original length of the file is lost.

_chsize_s takes a 64-bit integer as the file size, and therefore can handle file sizes greater than 4 GB. _chsize is limited to 32-bit file sizes.

This function validates its parameters. If fd is not a valid file descriptor or size is less than zero, the invalid parameter handler is invoked, as described in Parameter Validation.
