NAME
       libssh2_sftp_seek64 - set the read/write position within a file

SYNOPSIS
       #include <libssh2.h>
       #include <libssh2_sftp.h>

       void libssh2_sftp_seek64(LIBSSH2_SFTP_HANDLE *handle,
				libssh2_uint64_t offset);

DESCRIPTION
       handle - SFTP File Handle as returned by libssh2_sftp_open_ex(3)

       offset - Number of bytes from the beginning of file to seek to.

       Move  the file handle's internal pointer to an arbitrary location. lib‐
       ssh2 implements file pointers as	 a  localized  concept	to  make  file
       access appear more POSIX like. No packets are exchanged with the server
       during a seek operation. The localized file pointer is simply used as a
       convenience offset during read/write operations.

       You  MUST  NOT  seek during writing or reading a file with SFTP, as the
       internals use outstanding packets and changing the "file position" dur‐
       ing transit will results in badness.

AVAILABILITY
       Added in 1.0
