Synopsis

Description

COMMANDS

ns_adp_flush

This command flushes the ADP output buffer (i.e. sends the current content to the browser or writes to the file channel and truncates the buffer). It will raise a Tcl exception if the underlying flush failed, for example, if the HTTP connection is closed or the channel write failed.

Flushed content is returned in "chunked-encoding" format if the HTTP protocol version is at least 1.1 (normally the case for all modern browsers). A call to ns_adp_flush is not normally needed except for specialized applications as all content is automatically flushed at the end of a connection or on buffer overflow. See ns_adp_ctl bufsize for details on buffer management.
