NAME

       gnutls_record_send - API function


SYNOPSIS

       #include <gnutls/gnutls.h>

       gnutls_record_send(3) session, const void * data,
       size_t data_size);


ARGUMENTS

       gnutls_session_t session
                   is a gnutls_session_t type.

       const void * data
                   contains the data to send

       size_t data_size
                   is the length of the data


DESCRIPTION

       This function has the similar semantics with send().  The only  differ-
       ence  is  that  it  accepts  a GnuTLS session, and uses different error
       codes.  Note that if the send buffer is full, send()  will  block  this
       function.  See the send() documentation for more information.

       You  can  replace  the  default push function which is send(), by using
       gnutls_transport_set_push_function().

       If  the  EINTR  is  returned  by  the  internal  push   function   then
       GNUTLS_E_INTERRUPTED  will  be  returned.  If  GNUTLS_E_INTERRUPTED  or
       GNUTLS_E_AGAIN is returned, you must call this function again with  the
       exact  same  parameters,  or provide a NULL pointer for  data and 0 for
       data_size , in order to write the same data as before. If you  wish  to
       discard   the   previous  data  instead  of  retrying,  you  must  call
       gnutls_record_discard_queued() before calling this function  with  dif-
       ferent  parameters.  Note  that the latter works only on special trans-
       ports (e.g., UDP).  cf. gnutls_record_get_direction().

       Note that in DTLS this function will return  the  GNUTLS_E_LARGE_PACKET
       error  code if the send data exceed the data MTU value - as returned by
       gnutls_dtls_get_data_mtu(). The  errno  value  EMSGSIZE  also  maps  to
       GNUTLS_E_LARGE_PACKET.   Note  that  since  3.2.13 this function can be
       called under cork in DTLS mode, and will refuse to send data  over  the
       MTU size by returning GNUTLS_E_LARGE_PACKET.


RETURNS

       The  number  of  bytes  sent,  or a negative error code.  The number of
       bytes sent might be less than  data_size .  The maximum number of bytes
       this function can send in a single call depends on the negotiated maxi-
       mum record size.
