|
<p>The <em>send_file64()</em> function is used to send the contents of an open
|
|
file over an existing socket connection.</p>
|
|
|
|
<p>The <em>send_file64()</em> API is a combination of the IFS <em>read()</em>
|
|
and the sockets <em>send()</em> and <em>close()</em> APIs. Socket applications
|
|
that transmit a file over a socket connection can, under certain circumstances,
|
|
obtain improved performance by using <em>send_file64()</em>.</p>
|
|
|
|
<p><em>send_file64()</em> is enabled for large files. It is capable of
|
|
operating on files larger than 2 GB minus 1 byte. For additional information on
|
|
the parameters, authorities required, return values, error conditions, error
|
|
messages, and other usage notes, see <a href="send.htm">send_file()--Send a
|
|
File over a Socket Connection</a>.</p>

|
<li>When you develop in C-based languages, the prototypes for the 64-bit APIs
|
|
are normally hidden. To use the <em>send_file64()</em> API, you must compile
|
|
the source with the _LARGE_FILE_API macro defined.<br>
|
|
<br>
|
|
</li>
|
|
|
|
<li>All of the Usage Notes for <em>send_file()</em> apply to
|
|
<em>send_file64()</em>. See <a href="send.htm#HDRSDFUSAG">Usage Notes</a> in
|
|
the <em>send_file()</em> API.</li>
