<h4>Parameters</h4>
<dl class="par">
<dt>buff</dt>
<dd>Pointer to the data to be wtitten. A NULL specifies to finalize the current write operation.</dd>
<dt>btw</dt>
<dd>Number of bytes to write.</dd>
<dt>bw</dt>
<dd>Pointer to the variable to return number of bytes read.</dd>

<h4>Return Values</h4>
<dl class="ret">
<dt>FR_OK (0)</dt>
<dd>The function succeeded.</dd>
<dt>FR_DISK_ERR</dt>
<dd>The function failed due to a hard error in the disk function, write protected, a wrong FAT structure or an internal error.</dd>
<dt>FR_NOT_OPENED</dt>
<dd>The file has not been opened.</dd>
<dt>FR_NOT_ENABLED</dt>

<h4>Description</h4>
<p>The write function has some restrictions listed below:</p>
<ul>
<li>Cannot create file. Only existing file can be written.</li>
<li>Cannot expand file size.</li>
<li>Cannot update time stamp of the file.</li>
<li>Write operation can start/stop on the sector boundary.</li>
<li>Read-only attribute of the file cannot block write operation.</li>
</ul>
<p>File write operation must be done in following sequence.</p>
<ol>
<li><tt>pf_lseek(ofs);</tt> read/write pointer must be moved to sector bundary prior to initiate write operation or it will be rounded-down to the sector boundary.</li>
<li><tt>pf_write(buff, btw, &amp;bw);</tt> Initiate write operation. Write first data to the file.</li>
<li><tt>pf_write(buff, btw, &amp;bw);</tt> Write next data. Any other file function cannot be used while a write operation is in progress.</li>
<li><tt>pf_write(0, 0, &amp;bw);</tt> Finalize the write operation. If read/write pointer is not on the sector boundary, left bytes in the sector will be filled with zero.</li>
</ol>
<p>The read/write pointer in the file system object advances in number of bytes written. After the function succeeded, <tt>*bw</tt> should be checked to detect end of file. In case of <tt>*bw &lt; btw</tt>, it means the read/write pointer reached end of file during the write operation. Once a write operation is initiated, it must be finalized or the written data can be lost.</p>
