ssize_twget_fdgetline(char**buf,size_t*bufsize,intfd)Parametersbuf Pointer to a pointer that will be set up by the function to point to the read line
bufsize Pointer to a variable where the length of the read line will be put
fd File descriptor for an open file
Returns
The length of the last line read or a WGET_E_* error code (< 0)
Behaves identically as wget_getline(), but uses a file descriptor instead of a stream.
ssize_twget_getline(char**buf,size_t*bufsize,FILE*fp)Parametersbuf Pointer to a pointer that will be set up by the function to point to the read line
bufsize Pointer to a variable where the length of the read line will be put
fp Pointer to an open file's stream handle (FILE *)
Returns
The length of the last line read or a WGET_E_* error code (< 0)
This function will read a line from the open file handle fp. This function reads input characters until
either a newline character (\\n) is found or EOF is reached. A block of memory large enough to hold the
read line will be implicitly allocated by the function, and its address placed at the pointer pointed to
by buf. The length of the aforementioned memory block will be stored in the variable pointed at by
bufsize.
The caller is not expected to allocate memory as that will be automatically done by wget_getline(), but
it is responsibility of the caller free the memory allocated by a previous invocation of this function.
The caller is also responsible for opening and closing the file to read from.
Subsequent calls to wget_getline() that use the same block of memory allocated by previous calls (that
is, the caller did not free the buffer returned by a previous call to wget_getline()) will try to reuse
as much as possible from the available memory. The block of memory allocated by wget_getline() may be
larger than the length of the line read, and might even contain additional lines in it. When
wget_getline() returns, the contents of the buffer (pointed at by buf) are guaranteed to start with the
first character of the last line read, and such line is also guaranteed to end with a NULL termination
character (\0). The length of the last read line will be returned by wget_getline(), whereas the actual
length of the buffer will be placed in the variable pointed at by bufsize. The newline character (\\n)
will not be included in the last read line.
intwget_ready_2_transfer(intfd,inttimeout,intmode)Parametersfd File descriptor to wait for
timeout Max. duration in milliseconds to wait
mode Either WGET_IO_WRITABLE or WGET_IO_READABLE
Returns
-1 on error
0 on timeout - the file descriptor is not ready for reading or writing
>0 The file descriptor is ready for reading or writing. Check for the bitwise or of WGET_IO_WRITABLE
and WGET_IO_READABLE.
Wait for a file descriptor to become ready to read or write.
A timeout value of 0 means the function returns immediately.
A timeout value of -1 means infinite timeout.
intwget_ready_2_read(intfd,inttimeout)Parametersfd File descriptor to wait for
timeout Max. duration in milliseconds to wait
Returns
-1 on error
0 on timeout - the file descriptor is not ready for reading
1 on success - the file descriptor is ready for reading
Wait for a file descriptor to become ready to read.
A timeout value of 0 means the function returns immediately.
A timeout value of -1 means infinite timeout.
intwget_ready_2_write(intfd,inttimeout)Parametersfd File descriptor to wait for
timeout Max. duration in milliseconds to wait
Returns
-1 on error
0 on timeout - the file descriptor is not ready for writing
1 on success - the file descriptor is ready for writing
Wait for a file descriptor to become ready to write.
A timeout value of 0 means the function returns immediately.
A timeout value of -1 means infinite timeout.
char*wget_read_file(constchar*fname,size_t*size)Parametersfname The name of the file to read from, or a dash (-) to read from STDIN
size Pointer to a variable where the length of the contents read will be stored
Returns
Pointer to the read data, as a NULL-terminated C string
Reads the content of a file, or from STDIN. When reading from STDIN, the behavior is the same as for
regular files: input is read until an EOF character is found.
Memory will be accordingly allocated by wget_read_file() and a pointer to it returned when the read
finishes, but the caller is responsible for freeing that memory. The length of the allocated block of
memory, which is guaranteed to be the same as the length of the data read, will be placed in the variable
pointed at by size.
The read data is guaranteed to be appended a NUL termination character (\0).
intwget_update_file(constchar*fname,wget_update_load_fn*load_func,wget_update_save_fn*save_func,void*context)Parametersfname File name to update
load_func Pointer to the loader function
save_func Pointer to the saver function
context Context data
Returns
0 on success, or WGET_E_* on error
This function updates the file named fname atomically. It lets two caller-provided functions do the
actual updating. A lock file is created first under /tmp to ensure exclusive access to the file. Other
processes attempting to call wget_update_file() with the same fname parameter will block until the
current calling process has finished (that is, until wget_update_file() has returned).
Then, the file is opened with read access first, and the load_func function is called. When it returns,
the file is closed and opened again with write access, and the save_func function is called. Both
callback functions are passed the context data context, and a stream descriptor for the file. If either
function load_func or save_func returns a non-zero value, wget_update_file() closes the file and returns
-1, performing no further actions.
intwget_truncate(constchar*path,off_tlength)Parameterspath File path
length New file size
Returns
0 on success, or -1 on error
Set path to a size of exactly length bytes.
If the file was previously larger, the extra data is lost. If the file was previously shorter, extra zero
bytes are added.
On POSIX, this is a wrapper around ftruncate() (see 'man ftruncate' for details).
