NAME
libssh2_sftp_rename_ex - rename an SFTP file SYNOPSIS
#include <libssh2.h> #include <libssh2_sftp.h> int libssh2_sftp_rename_ex(LIBSSH2_SFTP *sftp, const char *source_filename, unsigned int source_filename_len, const char *dest_filename, unsigned int dest_filename_len, long flags); int libssh2_sftp_rename_ex(LIBSSH2_SFTP *sftp, const char *source_filename, const char *dest_filename); DESCRIPTION
sftp - SFTP instance as returned by libssh2_sftp_init(3) sourcefile - Path and name of the existing filesystem entry sourcefile_len - Length of the path and name of the existing filesystem entry destfile - Path and name of the target filesystem entry destfile_len - Length of the path and name of the target filesystem entry flags - Bitmask flags made up of LIBSSH2_SFTP_RENAME_* constants. Rename a filesystem object on the remote filesystem. The semantics of this command typically include the ability to move a filsystem object between folders and/or filesystem mounts. If the LIBSSH2_SFTP_RENAME_OVERWRITE flag is not set and the destfile entry already exists, the operation will fail. Use of the other two flags indicate a preference (but not a requirement) for the remote end to perform an atomic rename operation and/or using native system calls when possible. RETURN VALUE
Return 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. ERRORS
LIBSSH2_ERROR_ALLOC - An internal memory allocation call failed. LIBSSH2_ERROR_SOCKET_SEND - Unable to send data on socket. LIBSSH2_ERROR_SOCKET_TIMEOUT - LIBSSH2_ERROR_SFTP_PROTOCOL - An invalid SFTP protocol response was received on the socket, or an SFTP operation caused an errorcode to be returned by the server.

NAME
libssh2_sftp_stat_ex - get status about an SFTP file SYNOPSIS
#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); DESCRIPTION
sftp - SFTP instance as returned by libssh2_sftp_init(3) path - Remote filesystem object to stat/lstat/setstat. path_len - Length of the name of the remote filesystem object to stat/lstat/setstat. stat_type - One of the three constants specifying the type of stat operation to perform: LIBSSH2_SFTP_STAT: performs stat(2) operation LIBSSH2_SFTP_LSTAT: performs lstat(2) operation LIBSSH2_SFTP_SETSTAT: performs operation to set stat info on file attrs - Pointer to a LIBSSH2_SFTP_ATTRIBUTES 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, libssh2_sftp_stat(3) will follow all symlinks, while 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: 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; }; 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. ERRORS
LIBSSH2_ERROR_ALLOC - An internal memory allocation call failed. LIBSSH2_ERROR_SOCKET_SEND - Unable to send data on socket. LIBSSH2_ERROR_SOCKET_TIMEOUT - LIBSSH2_ERROR_SFTP_PROTOCOL - An invalid SFTP protocol response was received on the socket, or an SFTP operation caused an errorcode to be returned by the server.
