.SH "DESCRIPTION"
.PP
The
\fBne_set_request_body_buffer\fR
function specifies that a message body should be included with the body, which is stored in the
\fIcount\fR
bytes buffer
\fIbuf\fR.
.PP
The
\fBne_set_request_body_fd\fR
function can be used to include a message body with a request which is read from a file descriptor. The body is read from the file descriptor
\fIfd\fR, which must be a associated with a seekable file (not a pipe, socket, or FIFO).
\fIcount\fR
bytes are read, beginning at offset
\fIbegin\fR
(hence, passing
\fIbegin\fR
as zero means the body is read from the beginning of the file).
.PP
If the
NE_LFS
macro is defined, then the
\fBne_set_request_body_fd64\fR
function is also available, to provide large file support. This function can be used on 32\-bit platforms supporting the LFS standard; the
\fIoffset\fR
and
\fIlength\fR
parameters can then be passed as 64\-bit values. When using large files,
\fIfd\fR
must be opened using
\fBopen64\fR
or by passing the
O_LARGEFILE
flag to
\fBopen\fR.
.PP
For all the above functions, the source of the request body must survive until the request has been dispatched; neither the memory buffer passed to
\fBne_set_request_body_buffer\fR
nor the file descriptor passed to
\fBne_set_request_body_fd\fR
or
\fBne_set_request_body_fd64\fR
are copied internally.
