Small collection of helper functions required by some of our open source code

File I/O

Functions to handle boilerplate when reading and writing from files.

le_result_t ioutil_readIntFromFile(const char* path, int* value);
le_result_t ioutil_readDoubleFromFile(const char* filePath, double* value);
le_result_t ioutil_writeToFile(const char* path,
                               void* value,
                               size_t size,
                               size_t count);

le_result_t ioutil_appendToFile(const char* path,
                                void* value,
                                size_t size,
                                size_t count);
