NAME

       libssh2_sftp_rename_ex - rename an SFTP file

SYNOPSIS

       #include <libssh2.h>
       #include <libssh2_sftp.h>

       int
       libssh2_sftp_rename_ex(LIBSSH2_SFTP *sftp,
                              const char *source_filename,
                              unsigned int source_filename_len,
                              const char *dest_filename,
                              unsigned int dest_filename_len,
                              long flags);

       int
       libssh2_sftp_rename_ex(LIBSSH2_SFTP *sftp,
                              const char *source_filename,
                              const char *dest_filename);

DESCRIPTION

       sftp - SFTP instance as returned by libssh2_sftp_init(3)

       sourcefile - Path and name of the existing filesystem entry

       sourcefile_len - Length of the path and name of the existing filesystem entry

       destfile - Path and name of the target filesystem entry

       destfile_len - Length of the path and name of the target filesystem entry

       flags - Bitmask flags made up of LIBSSH2_SFTP_RENAME_* constants.

       Rename  a  filesystem  object  on  the  remote  filesystem.  The semantics of this command
       typically include  the  ability  to  move  a  filesystem  object  between  folders  and/or
       filesystem  mounts.  If the LIBSSH2_SFTP_RENAME_OVERWRITE flag is not set and the destfile
       entry already exists, the operation will fail. Use of  the  other  two  flags  indicate  a
       preference  (but  not  a  requirement)  for  the  remote  end  to perform an atomic rename
       operation and/or using native system calls when possible.

RETURN VALUE

       Return 0 on success or negative on failure.  It returns LIBSSH2_ERROR_EAGAIN when it would
       otherwise  block.  While  LIBSSH2_ERROR_EAGAIN  is  a  negative number, it is not really a
       failure per se.

ERRORS

       LIBSSH2_ERROR_ALLOC -  An internal memory allocation call failed.

       LIBSSH2_ERROR_SOCKET_SEND - Unable to send data on socket.

       LIBSSH2_ERROR_SOCKET_TIMEOUT -

       LIBSSH2_ERROR_SFTP_PROTOCOL - An invalid  SFTP  protocol  response  was  received  on  the
       socket, or an SFTP operation caused an errorcode to be returned by the server.
