bionic (3) libssh2_sftp_seek.3.gz

Provided by: libssh2-1-dev_1.8.0-1ubuntu0.1_amd64 bug

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.
