__p__fmode

Points to the _fmode global variable, which specifies the default file translation mode for file I/O operations.

Syntax

int* __p__fmode(
   );

Return value

Pointer to the _fmode global variable.

Remarks

The __p__fmode function is for internal use only, and shouldn't be called from user code.

File translation mode specifies either binary or text translation for _open and _pipe I/O operations. For more information, see _fmode.

By default, this function's global state is scoped to the application. To change this behavior, see Global state in the CRT.
