How much data does server side "loread" return?

[Date Prev][Date Next][Thread Prev][Thread Next][Date Index][Thread Index]

 



Hi all,

I need to read some large object and am wondering how much data
"loread" returns in case it successfully reads at all AND the object
contains at least as much data as requested.

In that case, does "loread" always return the requested amount of data
or does one need to always loop when calling that function?

I didn't find any explicit docs regarding that point and almost all
examples I saw where issuing one call with large amounts of requested
data, regardless of the size of the large object. The latter most
likely means that if available, all requested data is always returned.

Besides that, if "loread" is used in a loop for various reasons
already, one would need to count the overall number of bytes read to
know when the last chunk was read. Instead, it would be enough to
check for if the last returned chunk is less than requested.

> LOOP
>       chunk           := loread(fd, CHUNK_SIZE);
>       chunkSize       := length(chunk);
>       fdRead          := fdRead + chunkSize;
> [...]
>       --EXIT WHEN (chunkSize < CHUNK_SIZE);
>       EXIT WHEN (fdRead = fdSize);
> END LOOP;

Is the first EXIT sufficient already and "fdRead" unnecessary?

Thanks!

Mit freundlichen Grüßen

Thorsten Schöning
