osPfsFindFile
Format
#include <ultra64.h>
s32 osPfsFindFile(OSPfs *pfs,
u16 company_code,
u32 game_code,
u8 *game_name,
u8 *ext_name,
s32 *file_no);
What This Function Does
It searches for a specific game note in the Controller Pak. The company code
(company_code), game code (game_code), note name (game_name), and note
extension (ext_name) arguments are required to specify the game note.
If the specified game note is found in the Controller Pak, the note number
(file descriptor) is returned to the file_no argument. If the game note cannot be found, PFS_ERR_INVALID is returned as the error code.
If this function is called successfully, a 0 is returned. If an error occurs, one of the following error codes is returned:
- PFS_ERR_NOPACK - Some type of PIF error has occurred. Either the Controller Pak is not inserted into the specified Controller or the Controller is not properly connected. To determine which
is the case, use osContStartQuery or osContGetQuery.
- PFS_ERR_NEW_PACK - A different Controller Pak has been inserted. To use the inserted Controller Pak, initialize it by calling osPfsInitPak.
- PFS_ERR_CONTRFAIL - Data transfer to or from the Controller has failed. If a transfer error occurs, up to three tries will be done internally. Therefore, this error is rarely seen. If this error occurs, it is possible that either the Controller is not connected properly, or the Controller Pak or Controller Socket is damaged.
- PFS_ERR_INCONSISTENT - There is a problem in the file system's management area. Usually this error does not occur because osPfsChecker is called internally when you initialize the file system with osPfsInitPak. If this error is returned, either the Controller Pak is not connected properly, or the Controller Pak itself is damaged.
- PFS_ERR_INVALID - If this error is returned, an incorrect argument was specified when this function was called, the specified game note does not exist, or the Pfs function has been called without
being initialized by using the osPfsInitPak function. Therefore, usually
this error will not be returned.
