libssh2_sftp_seek64(3) libssh2 libssh2_sftp_seek64(3) NAME libssh2_sftp_seek64 - set the read/write position within a file SYNOPSIS #include <libssh2.h> #include <libssh2_sftp.h> void libssh2_sftp_seek64(LIBSSH2_SFTP_HANDLE *handle, libssh2_uint64_t offset); DESCRIPTION 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. 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 op- eration. The localized file pointer is used as a convenience offset during read/write operations. You MUST NOT seek during writing or reading a file with SFTP, as the inter- nals use outstanding packets and changing the "file position" during tran- sit will results in badness.
