MKI_FileUnbufferedRead (File I/O) Renamed in Version 2019.1

C++ Syntax

size_t

MKI_FileUnbufferedRead(

 HANDLE f_hFileHandle,

 void* f_pData,

 const size_t f_unSize );

Reads data directly from a file opened for read access.

This procedure does not support the additional disk write cache, i.e. it may not be used after calling either MKI_FileReadInitDisk, MKI_FileReadInitDiskOffset or MKI_FileReadInitMemory!

Parameters

FileHandle

[HANDLE] File handle of a file open for read access.

Data

[void*] Address of a buffer to receive the data read from the file.

Size

[const size_t] Number of bytes to be read from the file.

Return Value

Returns the number of bytes read from the file. If this value is less than Size, the file did contain less data than requested.
