--- name: "gnutls_range_split" section: "3" platform: "linux" package: "gnutls" version: "3.8.13-3" release: "Arch Linux 2026-11-01" platforms: ["linux"] url: "https://new.carta.tech/gnutls_range_split" --- # gnutls\_range\_split(3) API function ## NAME gnutls\_range\_split - API function ## SYNOPSIS **#include \** **int gnutls\_range\_split(gnutls\_session\_t** *session***, const gnutls\_range\_st \*** *orig***, gnutls\_range\_st \*** *next***, gnutls\_range\_st \*** *remainder***);** ## ARGUMENTS - gnutls\_session\_t session is a **gnutls\_session\_t** type - const gnutls\_range\_st \* orig is the original range provided by the user - gnutls\_range\_st \* next is the returned range that can be conveyed in a TLS record - gnutls\_range\_st \* remainder is the returned remaining range ## DESCRIPTION This function should be used when it is required to hide the length of very long data that cannot be directly provided to **gnutls\_record\_send\_range()**. In that case this function should be called with the desired length hiding range in *orig* . The returned *next* value should then be used in the next call to **gnutls\_record\_send\_range()** with the partial data. That process should be repeated until *remainder* is (0,0). ## RETURNS 0 in case splitting succeeds, non zero in case of error. Note that *orig* is not changed, while the values of *next* and *remainder* are modified to store the resulting values. ## REPORTING BUGS Report bugs to \.\ Home page: https://www.gnutls.org ## COPYRIGHT Copyright © 2001-2023 Free Software Foundation, Inc., and others.\ Copying and distribution of this file, with or without modification, are permitted in any medium without royalty provided the copyright notice and this notice are preserved. ## SEE ALSO The full documentation for **gnutls** is maintained as a Texinfo manual.
