Hi all,
I'm trying to set the file pointer for a file on a posix machine. For instance, I have a simple 5-byte file with data 'abcde'. I want to 'extend' the file to 10-bytes, but not initialize any data in those extra 5-bytes. They should be all zeros.
This is analogous to win32file.SetFilePointer routine.
Does anyone have any pointers (no pun intended) to a solution?
Thanks, Gus
