upload_offset

Description:

[ Version ( since = "1.5.17" ) ]
public bool upload_offset (string filename, string remotefilename, int64 offset, Cancellable? cancellable = null) throws Error

upload a file from the local machine with offset

Upload local file filename to remotefilename on the filesystem.

remotefilename is overwritten starting at the byte offset specified. The intention is to overwrite parts of existing files or devices, although if a non-existent file is specified then it is created with a "hole" before offset. The size of the data written is implicit in the size of the source filename.

Note that there is no limit on the amount of data that can be uploaded with this call, unlike with pwrite, and this call always writes the full amount unless an error occurs.

Parameters:

this	A GuestfsSession object
cancellable	A GCancellable object

Returns:

true on success, false on error
