Function Documentation

get_next_chunk()

t_buff * get_next_chunk	(	int	fd,
		char	separator )

Reads the next chunk from a file descriptor until separator is found.

Returns the chunk even if EOF is reached before separator is found. Returns NULL only when called after EOF has already been reached.

Note

Caller owns the returned t_buff and must free both the struct and its internal data (use buff_free then free).

Parameters

fd	File descriptor to read from.
separator	Character to stop reading at (included in returned chunk).

Returns

Pointer to a newly allocated t_buff (owned), or NULL on error/EOF.
