Positioning a internal pointer in a file.

[aouriques]

Hi friends,

I need to do:
function getCurrentLineNumber( &$handle ) {
##Gets the current position of the internal pointer of a handle
}

function goTo( &$handle, $int_line_number = 0 ) {
##Set the position of the internal pointer of a handle to $int_line_number
}

Result:
$handle = fopen( 'test.txt', 'r' );
goTo( &$handle, 15 );

echo fgets( $handle, 4096 ); ##Print the 15th line
echo fgets( $handle, 4096 ); ##Print the 16th line
echo fgets( $handle, 4096 ); ##Print the 17th line

echo getCurrentLineNumber( $handle ); ##Print 18

Just use [man]file[/man] and read the lines into an array. Then the line numbers will be your keys.
