A cache when writing files over the network.

A caching system to speed up network I/O, i.e. when there is no operating system caching support (like the buffer cache for local disk I/O). The cache makes sure that every I/O is done with a (large) fixed length buffer thereby avoiding many small I/O's. Currently the write cache system is used by the classes TNetFile, TXNetFile and TWebFile (via TFile::WriteBuffers()).

The write cache is automatically created when writing a remote file (created in TFile::Open()).

void TFileCacheWrite::SetFile ( TFile * file )

virtual

Set the file using this cache.

Any write not yet flushed will be lost.

Int_t TFileCacheWrite::WriteBuffer	(	const char *	buf,
		Long64_t	pos,
		Int_t	len
	)

virtual

Write buffer at position pos in the write buffer.

The function returns 1 if the buffer has been successfully entered into the write buffer. The function returns 0 in case WriteBuffer() was recusively called via Flush(). The function returns -1 in case of error.
