NAME

       comedi_fileno - get file descriptor for open Comedilib device

SYNOPSIS

       #include <comedilib.h>

       int comedi_fileno(comedi_t * device);

DESCRIPTION

       The function comedi_fileno returns the file descriptor for the device device. This descriptor can then be
       used as the file descriptor parameter of read, write, etc. This function is intended to mimic the
       standard C library function fileno.

       The returned file descriptor should not be closed, and will become invalid when comedi_close is called on
       device.

RETURN VALUE

       A file descriptor, or -1 on error.
