## Overview<a name="section62661387114"></a>

The utils_lite repository stores basic components of OpenHarmony. These basic components are used by OpenHarmony subsystems and upper-layer applications.

The utils_lite library provides the following capabilities on different platforms:

-   LiteOS Cortex-M \(Hi3861 platform\): file operations and timer
-   LiteOS Cortex-A \(Hi3516 or Hi3518 platform\): timer and JavaScript APIs for device query and data storage

## Usage<a name="section25021123178"></a>

-   **File operation**

```
    // Open or create a file.
    const char fileName[] = "testfile";
    int fd = UtilsFileOpen(fileName, O_RDWR_FS | O_CREAT_FS | O_TRUNC_FS, 0);
    
    // Write a specified length of data into a file with the specified file descriptor.
    const char defValue[] = "test case of file system.";
    int ret = UtilsFileWrite(fd, defValue, strlen(defValue));
    
    // Close a file with a specified file descriptor.
    UtilsFileClose(fd);
    
    // Obtain the file size.
    int fileLen = 0;
    ret = UtilsFileStat(fileName, &fileLen);
    printf("file size = %d\n", fileLen);
    
    // Adjust the read and write position offset in a file.
    int fd1 = UtilsFileOpen(fileName, O_RDWR_FS, 0);
    ret = UtilsFileSeek(fd1, 5, SEEK_SET_FS);
    
    // Read a specified length of data from a file with the specified file descriptor and write the data into the buffer.
    char buf[32] = {0};
    int readLen = UtilsFileRead(fd1, buf, 32);
    ret = UtilsFileClose(fd1);
    printf("read len = %d : buf = %s\n", readLen, buf);
    
    // Delete a specified file.
    ret = UtilsFileDelete(fileName);
    ```
