    FCLOSE(3S)	    UNIX Programmer's Manual	       FCLOSE(3S)

    NAME
         fclose, fflush - close or flush a stream

    SYNOPSIS
         #include <stdio.h>

         fclose(stream)
         FILE *stream;

         fflush(stream)
         FILE *stream;

    DESCRIPTION
         Fclose causes any buffers for the named stream to be emp-
         tied, and the file to be closed.  Buffers allocated by the
         standard input/output system are freed.

         Fclose is performed automatically upon calling exit(3).

         Fflush causes any buffered data for the named output stream
         to be written to that file.  The stream remains open.

    SEE ALSO
         close(2), fopen(3S), setbuf(3S)

    DIAGNOSTICS
         These routines return EOF if stream is not associated with
         an output file, or if buffered data cannot be transferred to
         that file.
