[REQ] Provide an fseek analogue #1
Comments
Suggested-by: Derek Buitenhuis Discussed-in: #1
Good question, thanks! I think an fseek equivalent will be really useful and almost required to provide a good "emulation" for the f family of functions. It could possibly be a bit hard to make it work in some situations but we should at least make a best effort. I think the github issues is a sensible place to take these things, at least to start with. There's no dedicated mailing list or anything for fcurl (yet). I added a few more functions to the README so they won't be forgotten. |
I'm not sure if this is out of scope for fcurl or not, but I figured it was worth asking.
Is there any plan to provide an
fseek
analogue, providing range request support, perhaps? (e.g. fseek to an offsetN
and readX
bytes yields aN
toN+X
range request). It may be too compilcated to be worth in in this wrapper.This would also allow fcurl to be registered with
fopencookie
orfunopen
, or various libraries which take such callbacks.Hopefully that made some semblance of sense.
Also apologies if a GitHub issue is not the appropriate place to put this; It wasn't clear from the README if there was a separate mailing list or bug tracker.
