Virtual Method

VipsTargetseek

Declaration [src] 

gint64
seek (
  VipsTarget* target,
  gint64 offset,
  int whence
)

Description [src]

Seek the target. This behaves exactly as lseek().

Seeking a target sounds weird, but libtiff needs this. This method will fail for targets like pipes.

Parameters

offset

Type: gint64

Offset to seek to.

whence

Type: int

Seek relative to beginning, offset, or end.

Return value

Type: gint64

The new offset, -1 on error.
