.SH NAME
|
|
libssh2_sftp_readdir - read directory data from an SFTP handle
|
|
.SH SYNOPSIS
|
|
#include <libssh2.h>
|
|
#include <libssh2_sftp.h>
|
|
|
|
int libssh2_sftp_readdir(LIBSSH2_SFTP_HANDLE *handle, char *buffer,
|
|
size_t buffer_maxlen, LIBSSH2_SFTP_ATTRIBUTES *attrs);
|
|
|
|
.SH DESCRIPTION
|
|
Read a block of data from a LIBSSH2_SFTP_HANDLE. This method is modeled
|
|
after the POSIX \fIreaddir(3)\fP however, it uses a variable sized directory
|
|
entry (filename) buffer and returns statbuf type data in the same call.
|
|
|
|
\fIhandle\fP is the SFTP File Handle as returned by
|
|
\fIlibssh2_sftp_diropen(3)\fP.
|
|
|
|
\fIbuffer\fP is a pointer to a pre-allocated buffer of at least
|
|
\fIbuffer_maxlen\fP bytes to read data into.
|
|
|
|
\fIbuffer_maxlen\fP is the length of buffer in bytes. If the length of the
|
|
filename is longer than the space provided by buffer_maxlen it will be
|
|
truncated to fit.
|
|
|
|
\fIattrs\fP is a pointer to LIBSSH2_SFTP_ATTRIBUTES storage to populate
|
|
statbuf style data into.
|
|
|
|
.SH RETURN VALUE
|
|
Number of bytes actually populated into buffer, or -1 on failure. It returns
|
|
LIBSSH2_ERROR_EAGAIN when it would otherwise block. While
|
|
LIBSSH2_ERROR_EAGAIN is a negative number, it isn't really a failure per se.
