.SH DESCRIPTION
.IX Header "DESCRIPTION"
\&\fBBIO_s_fd()\fR returns the file descriptor BIO method. This is a wrapper
round the platforms file descriptor routines such as \fBread()\fR and \fBwrite()\fR.
.PP
\&\fBBIO_read()\fR and \fBBIO_write()\fR read or write the underlying descriptor.
\&\fBBIO_puts()\fR is supported but \fBBIO_gets()\fR is not.
.PP
If the close flag is set then then \fBclose()\fR is called on the underlying
file descriptor when the BIO is freed.
.PP
\&\fBBIO_reset()\fR attempts to change the file pointer to the start of file
using lseek(fd, 0, 0).
.PP
\&\fBBIO_seek()\fR sets the file pointer to position \fBofs\fR from start of file
using lseek(fd, ofs, 0).
.PP
\&\fBBIO_tell()\fR returns the current file position by calling lseek(fd, 0, 1).
.PP
\&\fBBIO_set_fd()\fR sets the file descriptor of BIO \fBb\fR to \fBfd\fR and the close
flag to \fBc\fR.
.PP
\&\fBBIO_get_fd()\fR places the file descriptor in \fBc\fR if it is not NULL, it also
returns the file descriptor. If \fBc\fR is not NULL it should be of type
(int *).
.PP
\&\fBBIO_new_fd()\fR returns a file descriptor BIO using \fBfd\fR and \fBclose_flag\fR.
.SH NOTES
.IX Header "NOTES"
The behaviour of \fBBIO_read()\fR and \fBBIO_write()\fR depends on the behavior of the
platforms \fBread()\fR and \fBwrite()\fR calls on the descriptor. If the underlying 
file descriptor is in a non blocking mode then the BIO will behave in the
manner described in the \fBBIO_read\fR\|(3) and \fBBIO_should_retry\fR\|(3)
manual pages.
.PP
File descriptor BIOs should not be used for socket I/O. Use socket BIOs
instead.
.SH "RETURN VALUES"
.IX Header "RETURN VALUES"
\&\fBBIO_s_fd()\fR returns the file descriptor BIO method.
.PP
\&\fBBIO_reset()\fR returns zero for success and \-1 if an error occurred.
\&\fBBIO_seek()\fR and \fBBIO_tell()\fR return the current file position or \-1
if an error occurred. These values reflect the underlying \fBlseek()\fR
behaviour.
.PP
\&\fBBIO_set_fd()\fR always returns 1.
.PP
\&\fBBIO_get_fd()\fR returns the file descriptor or \-1 if the BIO has not
been initialized.
.PP
\&\fBBIO_new_fd()\fR returns the newly allocated BIO or NULL is an error
occurred.
.SH EXAMPLE
.IX Header "EXAMPLE"
This is a file descriptor BIO version of "Hello World":
.PP

\& BIO *out;
\& out = BIO_new_fd(fileno(stdout), BIO_NOCLOSE);
\& BIO_printf(out, "Hello World\en");
