PR_TransmitFile
 | 
						|
===============
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
Sends a complete file across a connected socket.
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
Syntax
 | 
						|
------
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
.. code::
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
   #include <prio.h>
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
   PRInt32 PR_TransmitFile(
 | 
						|
     PRFileDesc *networkSocket,
 | 
						|
     PRFileDesc *sourceFile,
 | 
						|
     const void *headers,
 | 
						|
     PRInt32 hlen,
 | 
						|
     PRTransmitFileFlags flags,
 | 
						|
     PRIntervalTime timeout);
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
Parameters
 | 
						|
~~~~~~~~~~
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
The function has the following parameters:
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
``networkSocket``
 | 
						|
   A pointer to a :ref:`PRFileDesc` object representing the connected
 | 
						|
   socket to send data over.
 | 
						|
``sourceFile``
 | 
						|
   A pointer to a :ref:`PRFileDesc` object representing the file to send.
 | 
						|
``headers``
 | 
						|
   A pointer to the buffer holding the headers to be sent before sending
 | 
						|
   data.
 | 
						|
``hlen``
 | 
						|
   Length of the ``headers`` buffer in bytes.
 | 
						|
``flags``
 | 
						|
   One of the following flags:
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
 - :ref:`PR_TRANSMITFILE_KEEP_OPEN` indicates that the socket will be kept
 | 
						|
   open after the data is sent.
 | 
						|
 - :ref:`PR_TRANSMITFILE_CLOSE_SOCKET` indicates that the connection should
 | 
						|
   be closed immediately after successful transfer of the file.
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
``timeout``
 | 
						|
   Time limit for completion of the transmit operation.
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
Returns
 | 
						|
~~~~~~~
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
-  A positive number indicates the number of bytes successfully written,
 | 
						|
   including both the headers and the file.
 | 
						|
-  The value -1 indicates a failure. If an error occurs while sending
 | 
						|
   the file, the ``PR_TRANSMITFILE_CLOSE_SOCKET`` flag is ignored. The
 | 
						|
   reason for the failure can be obtained by calling :ref:`PR_GetError`.
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
Description
 | 
						|
-----------
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
The :ref:`PR_TransmitFile` function sends a complete file (``sourceFile``)
 | 
						|
across a connected socket (``networkSocket``). If ``headers`` is
 | 
						|
non-``NULL``, :ref:`PR_TransmitFile` sends the headers across the socket
 | 
						|
before sending the file.
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
The enumeration ``PRTransmitFileFlags``, used in the ``flags``
 | 
						|
parameter, is defined as follows:
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
.. code::
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
   typedef enum PRTransmitFileFlags {
 | 
						|
     PR_TRANSMITFILE_KEEP_OPEN = 0,
 | 
						|
     PR_TRANSMITFILE_CLOSE_SOCKET = 1
 | 
						|
   } PRTransmitFileFlags;
