Detailed Description

       Restart Markers.

       FTP Restart Markers

       The Globus FTP Client library provides the ability to start a file transfer from a known location into
       the file. This is accomplished by passing a restart marker to the globus_ftp_client_get(),
       globus_ftp_client_put(), or globus_ftp_client_third_party_transfer() functions.

Function Documentation

   globus_result_t globus_ftp_client_restart_marker_copy (globus_ftp_client_restart_marker_t * new_marker,
       globus_ftp_client_restart_marker_t * marker)
       Create a copy of a restart marker.

       This function copies the contents of marker to new_marker.

       Parameters
           new_marker A pointer to a new restart marker.
           marker The marker to copy.

           globus_ftp_client_restart_marker_init(), globus_ftp_client_restart_marker_destroy()

   globus_result_t globus_ftp_client_restart_marker_destroy (globus_ftp_client_restart_marker_t * marker)
       Destroy a restart marker.

       Parameters
           marker Restart marker. This marker must be initialized by either calling
           globus_ftp_client_restart_marker_init() or globus_ftp_client_restart_marker_copy()

       See also
           globus_ftp_client_restart_marker_t, globus_ftp_client_restart_marker_init(),
           globus_ftp_client_restart_marker_copy()

   globus_result_t globus_ftp_client_restart_marker_from_string (globus_ftp_client_restart_marker_t * marker,
       const char * marker_string)
       Initialize a restart marker from a string.

       This function initializes a new restart, marker, based on the marker_string parameter. The string may be
       either a single offset for a stream-mode restart marker, or a comma-separated list of start-end ranges.

       Parameters
           marker The restart marker to be initialized.
           marker_string The string containing a textual representation of a restart marker.

   globus_result_t globus_ftp_client_restart_marker_get_total (globus_ftp_client_restart_marker_t * marker,
       globus_off_t * total_bytes)
       Get total bytes accounted for in restart marker

       This function will return the sum of all bytes accounted for in a restart marker. If this restart marker
       contains a stream offset then this value is the same as the offset (not the ascii offset) that it was set
       with. If it is a range list, it a sum of all the bytes in the ranges.

       Parameters
           marker A previously initialized or copied restart marker
           total_bytes pointer to storage for total bytes in marker

       Returns

           • Error on NULL marker or total bytes

   globus_result_t globus_ftp_client_restart_marker_init (globus_ftp_client_restart_marker_t * marker)
       Initialize a restart marker.

       Parameters
           marker New restart marker.

   globus_result_t globus_ftp_client_restart_marker_insert_range (globus_ftp_client_restart_marker_t * marker,
       globus_off_t offset, globus_off_t end_offset)
       Insert a range into a restart marker

       This function updates a restart marker with a new byte range, suitable for using to restart an extended
       block mode transfer. Adjacent ranges within the marker will be combined into a single entry in the
       marker.

       The marker must first be initialized by calling globus_ftp_client_restart_marker_init() or
       globus_ftp_client_restart_marker_copy().

       A marker can only hold a range list or a stream offset. Calling this function after calling
       globus_ftp_client_restart_marker_set_offset() will result in a marker suitable only for use restarting an
       extended block mode transfer.

       Parameters
           marker A restart marker
           offset The starting offset of the range.
           end_offset The ending offset of the range.

       See also
           globus_ftp_client_restart_marker_set_offset() globus_ftp_client_operationattr_set_mode()

   globus_result_t globus_ftp_client_restart_marker_set_ascii_offset (globus_ftp_client_restart_marker_t *
       marker, globus_off_t offset, globus_off_t ascii_offset)
       Set the offset for a restart marker.

       This function modifies a restart marker to contain a stream offset, suitable for using to restart a steam
       mode transfer.

       The marker must first be initialized by calling globus_ftp_client_restart_marker_init() or
       globus_ftp_client_restart_marker_copy().

       A marker can only hold a range list or a stream offset. Calling this function after calling
       globus_ftp_client_restart_marker_insert_range() will delete the ranges associated with the marker, and
       replace it with a marker suitable only for use restarting a stream mode transfer.

       When restarting an ASCII type transfer, use globus_ftp_client_restart_marker_set_ascii_offset() to set
       both the offset used in the local representation of an ACSII file, and the network representation of the
       ASCII file. For UNIX systems, the former includes counts newlines as one character towards the file
       offset, and the latter counts them as 2 characters (CRLF).

       Parameters
           marker A restart marker
           offset The local stream offset.
           ascii_offset The network ascii representation of the offset.

   globus_result_t globus_ftp_client_restart_marker_set_offset (globus_ftp_client_restart_marker_t * marker,
       globus_off_t offset)
       Set the offset for a restart marker.

       This function modifies a restart marker to contain a stream offset, suitable for using to restart a steam
       mode transfer.

       The marker must first be initialized by calling globus_ftp_client_restart_marker_init() or
       globus_ftp_client_restart_marker_copy().

       A marker can only hold a range list or a stream offset. Calling this function after calling
       globus_ftp_client_restart_marker_insert_range() will delete the ranges associated with the marker, and
       replace it with a marker suitable only for use restarting a stream mode transfer.

       When restarting an ASCII type transfer, the offset must take into account the additional carriage return
       characters added to the data stream.

       Parameters
           marker A restart marker
           offset The stream offset

           globus_ftp_client_restart_marker_insert_range(), globus_ftp_client_operationattr_set_mode(),
           globus_ftp_client_operationattr_set_type()

   globus_result_t globus_ftp_client_restart_marker_to_string (globus_ftp_client_restart_marker_t * marker, char
       ** marker_string)
       Create a string representation of a restart marker.

       This function sets the marker_string parameter to point to a freshly allocated string suitable for
       sending as an argument to the FTP REST command, or for a later call to
       globus_ftp_client_restart_marker_from_string().

       The string pointed to by marker_string must be freed by the caller.

       Parameters
           marker An initialized FTP client restart marker.
           marker_string A pointer to a char * to be set to a freshly allocated marker string.
