connection(_:didWriteData:totalBytesWritten:expectedTotalBytes:)

Sent to the delegate to deliver progress information for a download of a URL asset to a destination file.

Declaration

optional func connection(_ connection: NSURLConnection, didWriteData bytesWritten: Int64, totalBytesWritten: Int64, expectedTotalBytes: Int64)

Parameters

  • connection:

    The URL connection object downloading the asset.

  • bytesWritten:

    The number of bytes written since the last call of this method.

  • totalBytesWritten:

    The total number of bytes of the downloading asset that have been written to the file.

  • expectedTotalBytes:

    The total number of bytes of the URL asset once it is completely downloaded and written to a file. This parameter can be zero if the total number of bytes is not known.

Discussion

This method is invoked repeatedly during the download of a URL asset to the destination file. The delegate typically uses the values of the three “bytes” parameters to update a progress indicator in the application’s user interface.
