SC_UPDATE_BINARY(3)

NAME

sc_update_binary - Write to an existing file

SYNOPSIS

#include <opensc.h>

int sc_update_binary(struct sc_card *card, unsigned int offset,
                     const unsigned char *buf, size_t count,
                     unsigned long flags);

DESCRIPTION

This function writes count bytes from the buffer pointed to by buf to a transparent elementary file (EF) on card. It corresponds to the ISO 7816 UPDATE BINARY function. Call sc_select_file() first to select the file to write to.

This function can only be used to write to a file region previously
written to. For writing to a newly created file, or a new region of an existing file, use sc_write_binary().

The offset argument specifies the file offset in bytes. The flags argument is currently not used, and should be set to 0.

RETURN VALUE

If successful, the number of bytes written is returned. Otherwise, a
negative value is returned.
