libssh2_sftp_posix_rename_ex(3) libssh2 libssh2_sftp_posix_rename_ex(3) NAME libssh2_sftp_posix_rename_ex - rename an SFTP file using POSIX seman- tics SYNOPSIS #include <libssh2.h> #include <libssh2_sftp.h> int libssh2_sftp_posix_rename_ex(LIBSSH2_SFTP *sftp, const char *source_filename, size_t source_filename_len, const char *dest_filename, size_t dest_filename_len); 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 en- try This function implements the posix-rename@openssh.com extension, which is useful when, for example, moving files across filesystems on a re- mote server. SSH_FXP_RENAME does not specify a specific implementa- tion, but many servers will attempt to user hard links when moving files using SSH_FXP_RENAME. If the server does not support posix-rename@openssh.com, this function will return LIBSSH2_FX_OP_UNSUPPORTED and you can call libssh2_sftp_re- name_ex (3) as a backup. RETURN VALUE Return 0 on success or negative on failure. It returns LIBSSH2_ER- ROR_EAGAIN when it would otherwise block. While LIBSSH2_ERROR_EAGAIN is a negative number, it is not really a failure per se. ERRORS LIBSSH2_FX_OP_UNSUPPORTED - Server does not support posix-re- name@openssh.com 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 re- ceived on the socket, or an SFTP operation caused an errorcode to be returned by the server.
