NAME

       fcloseall - close all open streams

SYNOPSIS

       #define _GNU_SOURCE         /* See feature_test_macros(7) */
       #include <stdio.h>

       int fcloseall(void);

DESCRIPTION

       The  fcloseall()  function  closes  all  of  the calling process's open streams.  Buffered
       output for each stream is written before it is closed (as for fflush(3));  buffered  input
       is discarded.

       The standard streams, stdin, stdout, and stderr are also closed.

RETURN VALUE

       This function returns 0 if all files were successfully closed; on error, EOF is returned.

ATTRIBUTES

   Multithreading (see pthreads(7))
       The fcloseall() function does not lock the streams, so it is not thread-safe.

CONFORMING TO

       This function is a GNU extension.

SEE ALSO

       close(2), fclose(3), fflush(3), fopen(3), setbuf(3)
