_fseek_nolock, _fseeki64_nolock
Moves the file pointer to a specified location without locking.
Syntax
int _fseek_nolock(
FILE *stream,
long offset,
int origin
);
int _fseeki64_nolock(
FILE *stream,
__int64 offset,
int origin
);
Parameters
stream
Pointer to the FILE structure.
offset
Number of bytes from origin.
origin
Initial position.
Return value
Same as fseek and _fseeki64, respectively.
Remarks
These functions are the non-locking versions of fseek and _fseeki64, respectively. These functions are identical to fseek and _fseeki64, except that they aren't protected from interference by other threads. These functions might be faster because they don't incur the overhead of locking out other threads. Use these functions only in thread-safe contexts such as single-threaded applications or where the calling scope already handles thread isolation.
By default, this function's global state is scoped to the application. To change this behavior, see Global state in the CRT.
