TNetFile

A TNetFile is like a normal TFile except that it reads and writes
its data via a rootd server (for more on the rootd daemon see the
source files root/rootd/src/*.cxx). TNetFile file names are in
standard URL format with protocol "root" or "roots". The following
are valid TNetFile URL's:

roots://hpsalo/files/aap.root
root://hpbrun.cern.ch/root/hsimple.root
root://pcna49a:5151/~na49/data/run821.root
root://pcna49d.cern.ch:5050//v1/data/run810.root

The only difference with the well known httpd URL's is that the root
of the remote file tree is the user's home directory. Therefore an
absolute pathname requires a // after the host or port specifier
(see last example). Further the expansion of the standard shell
characters, like ~, $, .., are handled as expected.
TNetFile (actually TUrl) uses 1094 as default port for rootd.

Connecting to a rootd requires the remote user id and password.
TNetFile allows three ways for you to provide your login:
1) Setting it globally via the static functions:
TAuthenticate::SetGlobalUser() and
TAuthenticate::SetGlobalPasswd()
2) Getting it from the ~/.netrc file (same file as used by ftp)
3) Command line prompt
The different methods will be tried in the order given above.
On machines with AFS rootd will authenticate using AFS (if it was
compiled with AFS support).

If the protocol is specified as "roots" a secure authetication
method will be used. The secure method uses the SRP, Secure Remote
 Passwords, package. SRP uses a so called "asymmetric key exchange    //
 protocol" in which no passwords are ever send over the wire. This    //
protocol is safe against all known security attacks. For more see:

NetFile //
                                                             //
If the protocol is specified as "rootk" kerberos5 will be used for
authentication.

The rootd daemon lives in the directory $ROOTSYS/bin. It can be
started either via inetd or by hand from the command line (no need
to be super user). For more info about rootd see the web page:

                                                             //

Function documentation

TNetFile(const char* url, Option_t* option = "", const char* ftitle = "", Int_t compress = 1, Int_t netopt = 0)
 Create a TNetFile object. This is actually done inside Create(), so
 for a description of the options and other arguments see Create().
 Normally a TNetFile is created via TFile::Open().
TNetFile(const char* url, const char* ftitle, Int_t comp, Bool_t )
 Create a TNetFile object. To be used by derived classes, that need
 to initialize the TFile base class but not open a connection at this
 moment.
~TNetFile()
 TNetFile dtor. Send close message and close socket.
Int_t SysOpen(const char* pathname, Int_t flags, UInt_t mode)
 Open a remote file. Requires fOption to be set correctly.
Int_t SysClose(Int_t fd)
 Close currently open file.
Int_t SysStat(Int_t fd, Long_t* id, Long64_t* size, Long_t* flags, Long_t* modtime)
 Return file stat information. The interface and return value is
 identical to TSystem::GetPathInfo().
void Close(Option_t* option = "")
 Close remote file.
void Flush()
 Flush file to disk.
void Init(Bool_t create)
 Initialize a TNetFile object.
Bool_t IsOpen() const
 Retruns kTRUE if file is open, kFALSE otherwise.
void Print(Option_t* option) const
 Print some info about the net file.
void PrintError(const char* where, Int_t err)
 Print error string depending on error code.
Int_t ReOpen(Option_t* mode)
 Reopen a file with a different access mode, like from READ to
 UPDATE or from NEW, CREATE, RECREATE, UPDATE to READ. Thus the
 mode argument can be either "READ" or "UPDATE". The method returns
 0 in case the mode was successfully modified, 1 in case the mode
 did not change (was already as requested or wrong input arguments)
 and -1 in case of failure, in which case the file cannot be used
 anymore.
Bool_t ReadBuffer(char* buf, Int_t len)
 Read specified byte range from remote file via rootd daemon.
 Returns kTRUE in case of error.
Bool_t ReadBuffer(char* buf, Long64_t pos, Int_t len)
 Read specified byte range from remote file via rootd daemon.
 Returns kTRUE in case of error.
Bool_t ReadBuffers(char* buf, Long64_t* pos, Int_t* len, Int_t nbuf)
 Read a list of buffers given in pos[] and len[] and return it in a single
 buffer.
 Returns kTRUE in case of error.
Bool_t WriteBuffer(const char* buf, Int_t len)
 Write specified byte range to remote file via rootd daemon.
 Returns kTRUE in case of error.
Int_t Recv(Int_t& status, EMessageTypes& kind)
 Return status from rootd server and message kind. Returns -1 in
 case of error otherwise 8 (sizeof 2 words, status and kind).
void Seek(Long64_t offset, TFile::ERelativeTo pos = kBeg)
 Set position from where to start reading.
void ConnectServer(Int_t* stat, EMessageTypes* kind, Int_t netopt, Int_t tcpwindowsize, Bool_t forceOpen, Bool_t forceRead)
 Connect to remote rootd server.
void Create(const char* url, Option_t* option, Int_t netopt)
 Create a NetFile object. A net file is the same as a TFile
 except that it is being accessed via a rootd server. The url
 argument must be of the form: root[s|k]://host.dom.ain/file.root.
 When protocol is "roots" try using SRP authentication.
 When protocol is "rootk" try using kerberos5 authentication.
 If the file specified in the URL does not exist, is not accessable
 or can not be created the kZombie bit will be set in the TNetFile
 object. Use IsZombie() to see if the file is accessable.
 If the remote daemon thinks the file is still connected, while you are
 sure this is not the case you can force open the file by preceding the
 option argument with an "-", e.g.: "-recreate". Do this only
 in cases when you are very sure nobody else is using the file.
 To bypass the writelock on a file, to allow the reading of a file
 that is being written by another process, explicitly specify the
 "+read" option ("read" being the default option).
 The netopt argument can be used to specify the size of the tcp window in
 bytes (for more info see: http://www.psc.edu/networking/perf_tune.html).
 The default and minimum tcp window size is 65535 bytes.
 If netopt < -1 then |netopt| is the number of parallel sockets that will
 be used to connect to rootd. This option should be used on fat pipes
 (i.e. high bandwidth, high latency links). The ideal number of parallel
 sockets depends on the bandwidth*delay product. Generally 5-7 is a good
 number.
 For a description of the option and other arguments see the TFile ctor.
 The preferred interface to this constructor is via TFile::Open().
void Create(TSocket* s, Option_t* option, Int_t netopt)
 Create a NetFile object using an existing connection (socket s).
 Provided for use in TXNetFile.
 See:
    TNetFile::Create(const char *url, Option_t *option, Int_t netopt)
 for details about the arguments.
Bool_t Matches(const char* url)
 Return kTRUE if 'url' matches the coordinates of this file.
 Check the full URL, including port and FQDN.

Int_t GetErrorCode() const
{ return fErrorCode; }
const TUrl * GetEndpointUrl() const
{ return &fEndpointUrl; }
