NAME

gnutls_range_split - API function

SYNOPSIS

#include <gnutls/gnutls.h>

int gnutls_range_split(gnutls_session_t session, const gnutls_range_st * orig, gnutls_range_st * next, gnutls_range_st * remainder);

ARGUMENTS

gnutls_session_t session: is a gnutls_session_t type
const gnutls_range_st * orig: is the original range provided by the user
gnutls_range_st * next: is the returned range that can be conveyed in a TLS record
gnutls_range_st * remainder: is the returned remaining range

DESCRIPTION

This function should be used when it is required to hide the length of very long data that cannot be directly provided to gnutls_record_send_range(). In that case this function should be called with the desired length hiding range in orig . The returned next value should then be used in the next call to gnutls_record_send_range() with the partial data. That process should be repeated until remainder is (0,0).

RETURNS

0 in case splitting succeeds, non zero in case of error. Note that orig is not changed, while the values of next and remainder are modified to store the resulting values.
