       Ns_Conn      conn   (in)      Pointer to open connection.

       Ns_DString   dsPtr  (in)      Initialized dstring.

       int          fd     (in)      File descriptor open for write.

       FILE         fp     (in)      Stdio FILE pointer open for write.

DESCRIPTION

       These functions copy content from an open  connection  request  to  the  given  open  file
       descriptor,  FILE, dstring, or Tcl_Channel.  The routines work by copying from the content
       buffer; see the man page on Ns_ConnContent for how this buffer is managed for  both  small
       and large requests.

       The  functions  all return the number of bytes copied which will match the requested ncopy
       argument unless there is an error writing the content or the requested  bytes  is  greater
       than  the  number  of  bytes  still  available  to  be  read.  An internal offset into the
       connection is maintained and is shared  with  routines  such  as  Ns_ConnRead  which  also
       consume content from the same buffer.  Note that routines which access the entire content,
       e.g., Ns_ConnContent, Ns_ConnContentFd, or Ns_ConnGetQuery will continue to provide access
       to  the  entire request regardless if one of the Ns_ConnCopy or Ns_ConnRead functions have
       been used.

EXAMPLES

       The following example demonstrates copying user data to a temp file:

                fd = open("myfile.out", O_WRONLY|O_BINARY);
                len = Ns_ConnContentLength(conn);
                if (Ns_ConnCopyToFd(conn, len, fd) != len) {
                   ... error writing content or content already consumed ...
                }
