 | |
| .SH NAME
 | |
| libssh2_sftp_stat_ex - get status about an SFTP file
 | |
| .SH SYNOPSIS
 | |
| .nf
 | |
| #include <libssh2.h>
 | |
| #include <libssh2_sftp.h>
 | |
| 
 | |
| int libssh2_sftp_stat_ex(LIBSSH2_SFTP *sftp, const char *path,
 | |
|                          unsigned int path_len, int stat_type,
 | |
|                          LIBSSH2_SFTP_ATTRIBUTES *attrs);
 | |
| .SH DESCRIPTION
 | |
| \fIsftp\fP - SFTP instance as returned by 
 | |
| .BR libssh2_sftp_init(3)
 | |
| 
 | |
| \fIpath\fP - Remote filesystem object to stat/lstat/setstat.
 | |
| 
 | |
| \fIpath_len\fP - Length of the name of the remote filesystem object 
 | |
| to stat/lstat/setstat.
 | |
| 
 | |
| \fIstat_type\fP - One of the three constants specifying the type of 
 | |
| stat operation to perform:
 | |
| 
 | |
| .br
 | |
| \fBLIBSSH2_SFTP_STAT\fP: performs stat(2) operation
 | |
| .br
 | |
| \fBLIBSSH2_SFTP_LSTAT\fP: performs lstat(2) operation
 | |
| .br
 | |
| \fBLIBSSH2_SFTP_SETSTAT\fP: performs operation to set stat info on file
 | |
| 
 | |
| \fIattrs\fP - Pointer to a \fBLIBSSH2_SFTP_ATTRIBUTES\fP structure to set file
 | |
| metadata from or into depending on the value of stat_type.
 | |
| 
 | |
| Get or Set statbuf type data on a remote filesystem object. When getting
 | |
| statbuf data,
 | |
| .BR libssh2_sftp_stat(3)
 | |
| will follow all symlinks, while 
 | |
| .BR libssh2_sftp_lstat(3)
 | |
| will return data about the object encountered, even if that object 
 | |
| happens to be a symlink.
 | |
| 
 | |
| The LIBSSH2_SFTP_ATTRIBUTES struct looks like this:
 | |
| 
 | |
| .nf
 | |
| struct LIBSSH2_SFTP_ATTRIBUTES {
 | |
|     /* If flags & ATTR_* bit is set, then the value in this struct will be
 | |
|      * meaningful Otherwise it should be ignored
 | |
|      */
 | |
|     unsigned long flags;
 | |
| 
 | |
|     libssh2_uint64_t filesize;
 | |
|     unsigned long uid;
 | |
|     unsigned long gid;
 | |
|     unsigned long permissions;
 | |
|     unsigned long atime;
 | |
|     unsigned long mtime;
 | |
| };
 | |
| .fi
 | |
| .SH RETURN VALUE
 | |
| Returns 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 isn't really a failure per se.
 | |
| .SH ERRORS
 | |
| \fILIBSSH2_ERROR_ALLOC\fP -  An internal memory allocation call failed.
 | |
| 
 | |
| \fILIBSSH2_ERROR_SOCKET_SEND\fP - Unable to send data on socket.
 | |
| 
 | |
| \fILIBSSH2_ERROR_SOCKET_TIMEOUT\fP - 
 | |
| 
 | |
| \fILIBSSH2_ERROR_SFTP_PROTOCOL\fP - An invalid SFTP protocol response was 
 | |
| received on the socket, or an SFTP operation caused an errorcode to 
 | |
| be returned by the server.
