NAME¶
libssh2_sftp_seek - set the read/write position indicator within a file
SYNOPSIS¶
#include <libssh2.h>
#include <libssh2_sftp.h>
void libssh2_sftp_seek(LIBSSH2_SFTP_HANDLE *handle, size_t offset);
DESCRIPTION¶
Deprecated function. Use
libssh2_sftp_seek64(3) instead!
handle - SFTP File Handle as returned by
libssh2_sftp_open_ex(3)
offset - Number of bytes from the beginning of file to seek to.
Move the file handle's internal pointer to an arbitrary location. Note that
libssh2 implements file pointers as a localized concept to make file access
appear more POSIX like. No packets are exchanged with the server during a seek
operation. The localized file pointer is simply used as a convenience offset
during read/write operations.
