libssh2_channel_send_eof3

Send eof to remote server

Usage

#include <libssh2.h>
int
libssh2_channel_send_eof(LIBSSH2_CHANNEL *channel);

Overview

Tell the remote host that no further data will be sent on the specified channel. Processes typically interpret this as a closed stdin descriptor.

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 is not really a failure per se.

Errors

LIBSSH2_ERROR_SOCKET_SEND - Unable to send data on socket.
