NAME

       gnutls_record_get_direction   -   return  the  direction  of  the  last
       interrupted function call

SYNOPSIS

       #include <gnutls/gnutls.h>

       int gnutls_record_get_direction(gnutls_session_t session);

ARGUMENTS

       gnutls_session_t session
                   is a gnutls_session_t structure.

DESCRIPTION

       This function provides information about the internals  of  the  record
       protocol  and  is  only  useful  if  a prior gnutls function call (e.g.
       gnutls_handshake()) was interrupted for some  reason,  that  is,  if  a
       function  returned  GNUTLS_E_INTERRUPTED  or GNUTLS_E_AGAIN.  In such a
       case, you might want to call select()  or  poll()  before  calling  the
       interrupted  gnutls  function  again.   To  tell  you  whether  a  file
       descriptor  should  be  selected  for  either   reading   or   writing,
       gnutls_record_get_direction() returns 0 if the interrupted function was
       trying to read data, and 1 if it was trying to write data.

RETURNS

       0 if trying to read data, 1 if trying to write data.
