RE: sftp_read receives EOF on second call for a 24kb file


I have found that Darren’s cmake build of 0.5.5 libssh.dll via mingw32 works fine for me whereas my build using MSVC 2005 32bit is causing a problem.  Two things I had to do to get sftp.c to build were:

 

1.       define htonll as below

2.       comment out line 292 #ifndef HAVE_NTOHLL and #endif /* HAVE_NTOHLL */ in misc.c to get sftp.c to build.

 

uint64_t htonll(uint64_t value) {

#ifdef WORDS_BIGENDIAN

    int num = 42;

    if (*(char *)&num == 42) {

        uint32_t high_part = htonl((uint32_t)(value >> 32));

        uint32_t low_part = htonl((uint32_t)(value & 0xFFFFFFFFLL));

        return (((uint64_t)low_part) << 32) | high_part;

    } else {

        return value;

    }

#else

  return value;

#endif /* WORDS_BIGENDIAN */

 

Was anybody able to get sftp.c to build under MSVC 2005 without making these two changes?

Hi Andreas :o),

Many thanks for LibSSH!

Alas, I believe it is a bug in libssh which is why I came up with that work around.

 I know it's not a great solution but it does work for the time being ;)

That is what I was asking about.  I have a 24kb file that I was trying to 
transfer in 1kb chunks, transferred 1kb without a problem but on my second call 
to sftp_read there was a SSH_FX_EOF received at line 1802 in sftp.c (version 
0.5.5).  I built this with openssl 1.0.1.  The reason I sent the ssh_session 
init along with the sftp code was incase there was something I was doing wrong 
in the ssh session initialization to cause this.
 
My read loop is as such:
 
  char buffer[1024];
  size_t length = sizeof(buffer);
  size_t totalLength = 0;
    size_t count = 0;
 
    count = sftp_read(file, buffer, length);
 
    while ( count > 0 ) {
 
      if ( destFile.is_open() ) {
        destFile.write(buffer, length);
      }
 
      totalLength += count;
 
      count = sftp_read(file, buffer, length);
    }

Hi Andreas,
 
I think Kevin complained that sftp_read returned an EOF condition when the file 
was not fully read, and if it does it's a bug in libssh.
