apr_pool_t pool 
)

Append the specified file to another file.

Parameters:
from_path The full path to the source file (use / on all systems)
to_path The full path to the destination file (use / on all systems)

Remarks:
If perm is APR_FPROT_OS_DEFAULT and the file is being created, appropriate default permissions will be used.
By default, the returned file descriptor will not be inherited by child processes created by apr_proc_create(). This can be changed using apr_file_inherit_set().
apr_status_t apr_file_open_flags_stderr ( apr_file_t **  thefile,
apr_int32_t  flags,
apr_pool_t pool 
)

open standard error as an apr file pointer, with flags.

Parameters:

flags should be used. The APR_FOPEN_WRITE flag will be set unconditionally.

pool The pool to allocate the file out of.
Remarks:
See remarks for apr_file_open_stderr().
apr_status_t apr_file_open_flags_stdin ( apr_file_t **  thefile,
apr_int32_t  flags,
apr_pool_t pool 
)

open standard input as an apr file pointer, with flags.

Parameters:
thefile The apr file to use as stdin.
flags The flags to open the file with. Only the

flags should be used. The APR_FOPEN_WRITE flag will be set unconditionally.

pool The pool to allocate the file out of.
Remarks:
See remarks for apr_file_open_stderr().
apr_status_t apr_file_open_flags_stdout ( apr_file_t **  thefile,
apr_int32_t  flags,
apr_pool_t pool 
)

open standard output as an apr file pointer, with flags.

Parameters:
thefile The apr file to use as stdout.
flags The flags to open the file with. Only the

flags should be used. The APR_FOPEN_WRITE flag will be set unconditionally.

pool The pool to allocate the file out of.
Remarks:
See remarks for apr_file_open_stderr().
apr_status_t apr_file_open_stderr ( apr_file_t **  thefile,
apr_pool_t pool 
)

Open standard error as an apr file pointer.

Parameters:
thefile The apr file to use as stderr.
pool The pool to allocate the file out of.
Remarks:
The only reason that the apr_file_open_std* functions exist is that you may not always have a stderr/out/in on Windows. This is generally a problem with newer versions of Windows and services.
The other problem is that the C library functions generally work differently on Windows and Unix. So, by using apr_file_open_std* functions, you can get a handle to an APR struct that works with the APR functions which are supposed to work identically on all platforms.
apr_status_t apr_file_open_stdin ( apr_file_t **  thefile,
apr_pool_t pool 
)

open standard input as an apr file pointer.

Parameters:
thefile The apr file to use as stdin.
pool The pool to allocate the file out of.
Remarks:
See remarks for apr_file_open_stderr().
apr_status_t apr_file_open_stdout ( apr_file_t **  thefile,
apr_pool_t pool 
)

open standard output as an apr file pointer.

Parameters:
thefile The apr file to use as stdout.
pool The pool to allocate the file out of.
Remarks:
See remarks for apr_file_open_stderr().
apr_status_t apr_file_perms_set ( const char *  fname,
apr_fileperms_t  perms 
)

set the specified file's permission bits.

Parameters:
fname The file (name) to apply the permissions to.
perms The permission bits to apply to the file.
Warning:
Some platforms may not be able to apply all of the available permission bits; APR_INCOMPLETE will be returned if some permissions are specified which could not be set.
Platforms which do not implement this feature will return APR_ENOTIMPL.
apr_status_t apr_file_pipe_create ( apr_file_t **  in,
apr_file_t **  out,
apr_pool_t pool 
)

Create an anonymous pipe.

Parameters:
in The newly created pipe's file for reading.
out The newly created pipe's file for writing.
pool The pool to operate on.
Remarks:
By default, the returned file descriptors will be inherited by child processes created using apr_proc_create(). This can be changed using apr_file_inherit_unset().
Bug:
Some platforms cannot toggle between blocking and nonblocking, and when passing a pipe as a standard handle to an application which does not expect it, a non-blocking stream will fluxor the client app.
Deprecated:
See also:
apr_file_pipe_create_ex()
apr_status_t apr_file_pipe_create_ex ( apr_file_t **  in,
apr_file_t **  out,
apr_int32_t  blocking,
apr_pool_t pool 
)

Create an anonymous pipe which portably supports async timeout options.

Parameters:
in The newly created pipe's file for reading.
out The newly created pipe's file for writing.
blocking one of these values defined in apr_thread_proc.h;

pool The pool to operate on.
Remarks:
By default, the returned file descriptors will be inherited by child processes created using apr_proc_create(). This can be changed using apr_file_inherit_unset().
Some platforms cannot toggle between blocking and nonblocking, and when passing a pipe as a standard handle to an application which does not expect it, a non-blocking stream will fluxor the client app. Use this function rather than apr_file_pipe_create() to create pipes where one or both ends require non-blocking semantics.
apr_status_t apr_file_pipe_timeout_get ( apr_file_t thepipe,
apr_interval_time_t timeout 
)

Get the timeout value for a pipe or manipulate the blocking state.

Parameters:
thepipe The pipe we are getting a timeout for.

apr_interval_time_t  timeout 
)

Set the timeout value for a pipe or manipulate the blocking state.

Parameters:
thepipe The pipe we are setting a timeout on.
timeout The timeout value in microseconds. Values < 0 mean wait forever, 0 means do not wait at all.
apr_pool_t* apr_file_pool_get ( const apr_file_t thefile  ) 

Get the pool used by the file.

int apr_file_printf ( apr_file_t fptr,
const char *  format,
  ... 
)

Write a string to a file using a printf format.

Parameters:

apr_file_t thefile 
)

Write a character into the specified file.

Parameters:
ch The character to write.
thefile The file descriptor to write to
apr_status_t apr_file_puts ( const char *  str,
apr_file_t thefile

)

Read data from the specified file.

Parameters:
thefile The file descriptor to read from.
buf The buffer to store the data to.
nbytes On entry, the number of bytes to read; on exit, the number of bytes read.
Remarks:
apr_file_read() will read up to the specified number of bytes, but never more. If there isn't enough data to fill that number of bytes, all of the available data is read. The third argument is modified to reflect the number of bytes read. If a char was put back into the stream via ungetc, it will be the first character returned.
It is not possible for both bytes to be read and an APR_EOF or other error to be returned. APR_EINTR is never returned.
apr_status_t apr_file_read_full ( apr_file_t thefile,
void *  buf,
apr_size_t  nbytes,

Parameters:
thefile The file descriptor to read from.
buf The buffer to store the data to.
nbytes The number of bytes to read.
bytes_read If non-NULL, this will contain the number of bytes read.
Remarks:
apr_file_read_full() will read up to the specified number of bytes, but never more. If there isn't enough data to fill that number of bytes, then the process/thread will block until it is available or EOF is reached. If a char was put back into the stream via ungetc, it will be the first character returned.
It is possible for both bytes to be read and an error to be returned. And if *bytes_read is less than nbytes, an accompanying error is _always_ returned.
APR_EINTR is never returned.
apr_status_t apr_file_remove ( const char *  path,
apr_pool_t pool 
)

Delete the specified file.

Parameters:
path The full path to the file (using / on all systems)

The third argument is modified to be the offset the pointer was actually moved to.
apr_status_t apr_file_setaside ( apr_file_t **  new_file,
apr_file_t old_file,
apr_pool_t p 
)

Move the specified file descriptor to a new pool

Parameters:
new_file Pointer in which to return the new apr_file_t
old_file The file to move
p The pool to which the descriptor is to be moved
Remarks:
Unlike apr_file_dup2(), this function doesn't do an OS dup() operation on the underlying descriptor; it just moves the descriptor's apr_file_t wrapper to a new pool.
The new pool need not be an ancestor of old_file's pool.
After calling this function, old_file may not be used
apr_status_t apr_file_sync ( apr_file_t thefile  ) 

Transfer all file modified data and metadata to disk.

Parameters:
thefile The file descriptor to sync
apr_status_t apr_file_trunc ( apr_file_t fp,
apr_off_t  offset 
)

Truncate the file's length to the specified offset

Parameters:
fp The file to truncate
offset The offset to truncate to.
Remarks:
The read/write file offset is repositioned to offset.
apr_status_t apr_file_ungetc ( char  ch,
apr_file_t thefile 
)

Put a character back onto a specified stream.

Parameters:
ch The character to write.
thefile The file descriptor to write to
apr_status_t apr_file_unlock ( apr_file_t thefile  ) 

Remove any outstanding locks on the file.

Parameters:
thefile The file to unlock.
apr_status_t apr_file_write ( apr_file_t thefile,
const void *  buf,
apr_size_t *  nbytes 
)

Write data to the specified file.

Parameters:
thefile The file descriptor to write to.
buf The buffer which contains the data.
nbytes On entry, the number of bytes to write; on exit, the number of bytes written.
Remarks:
apr_file_write() will write up to the specified number of bytes, but never more. If the OS cannot write that many bytes, it will write as many as it can. The third argument is modified to reflect the * number of bytes written.
It is possible for both bytes to be written and an error to be returned. APR_EINTR is never returned.
apr_status_t apr_file_write_full ( apr_file_t thefile,
const void *  buf,
apr_size_t  nbytes,
apr_size_t *  bytes_written 
)

Write data to the specified file, ensuring that all of the data is written before returning.

Parameters:
thefile The file descriptor to write to.
buf The buffer which contains the data.
nbytes The number of bytes to write.
bytes_written If non-NULL, set to the number of bytes written.
Remarks:
apr_file_write_full() will write up to the specified number of bytes, but never more. If the OS cannot write that many bytes, the process/thread will block until they can be written. Exceptional error such as "out of space" or "pipe closed" will terminate with an error.
It is possible for both bytes to be written and an error to be returned. And if *bytes_written is less than nbytes, an accompanying error is _always_ returned.
APR_EINTR is never returned.
apr_status_t apr_file_writev ( apr_file_t thefile,
const struct iovec *  vec,
apr_size_t  nvec,
apr_size_t *  nbytes 
)

Write data from iovec array to the specified file.

Parameters:
thefile The file descriptor to write to.
vec The array from which to get the data to write to the file.
nvec The number of elements in the struct iovec array. This must be smaller than APR_MAX_IOVEC_SIZE. If it isn't, the function will fail with APR_EINVAL.
nbytes The number of bytes written.
Remarks:
It is possible for both bytes to be written and an error to be returned. APR_EINTR is never returned.
apr_file_writev() is available even if the underlying operating system doesn't provide writev().
apr_status_t apr_file_writev_full ( apr_file_t thefile,
const struct iovec *  vec,
apr_size_t  nvec,
apr_size_t *  nbytes 
)

Write data from iovec array to the specified file, ensuring that all of the data is written before returning.

Parameters:
thefile The file descriptor to write to.
vec The array from which to get the data to write to the file.
nvec The number of elements in the struct iovec array. This must be smaller than APR_MAX_IOVEC_SIZE. If it isn't, the function will fail with APR_EINVAL.
nbytes The number of bytes written.
Remarks:
apr_file_writev_full() is available even if the underlying operating system doesn't provide writev().
apr_status_t apr_temp_dir_get ( const char **  temp_dir,
apr_pool_t p 
)

Find an existing directory suitable as a temporary storage location.

Parameters:
temp_dir The temp directory.
p The pool to use for any necessary allocations.
Remarks:
This function uses an algorithm to search for a directory that an an application can use for temporary storage.
