.SH NAME
|
libssh2_sftp_seek - set the read/write position indicator within a file
|
.SH SYNOPSIS
|
.nf
|
#include <libssh2.h>
|
#include <libssh2_sftp.h>
|
|
void libssh2_sftp_seek(LIBSSH2_SFTP_HANDLE *handle, size_t offset);
|
.SH DESCRIPTION
|
Deprecated function. Use \fIlibssh2_sftp_seek64(3)\fP instead!
|
|
\fIhandle\fP - SFTP File Handle as returned by
|
.BR libssh2_sftp_open_ex(3)
|
|
\fIoffset\fP - 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.
