Description

Functions

gsf_input_read ()

guint8 const *
gsf_input_read (GsfInput *input,
                size_t num_bytes,
                guint8 *optional_buffer);

Read at least num_bytes . Does not change the current position if there is an error. Will only read if the entire amount can be read. Invalidates the buffer associated with previous calls to gsf_input_read.

[skip]

Parameters

input

the input stream

 

num_bytes

number of bytes to read

 

optional_buffer

Pointer to destination memory area.

[array][allow-none]

Returns

pointer to the buffer or NULL if there is an error or 0 bytes are requested.

[array][nullable]


gsf_input_tell ()

gsf_off_t
gsf_input_tell (GsfInput *input);

Parameters

input

the input stream

 

Returns

the current offset in the file.


gsf_input_seek ()

gboolean
gsf_input_seek (GsfInput *input,
                gsf_off_t offset,
                GSeekType whence);

Move the current location in the input stream.

[virtual Seek]

Parameters

input

the input stream

 

offset

target offset

 

whence

determines whether the offset is relative to the beginning or the end of the stream, or to the current location.

 

Returns

TRUE on error.


gsf_input_container ()

GsfInfile *
gsf_input_container (GsfInput *input);

Parameters

input

the input stream

 

Returns

input 's container.

[transfer none][nullable]


gsf_input_dup ()

GsfInput *
gsf_input_dup (GsfInput *input,
               GError **err);

Duplicates input leaving the new one at the same offset.

[virtual Dup]

Parameters

input

The input to duplicate

 

err

place to store a GError if anything goes wrong.

[allow-none]

Returns

the duplicate.

[transfer full][nullable]


gsf_input_size ()

gsf_off_t
gsf_input_size (GsfInput *input);

Parameters

input

The input

 

Returns

the total number of bytes in the input or -1 on error


gsf_input_eof ()

gboolean
gsf_input_eof (GsfInput *input);

Are we at the end of the file?

Parameters

input

the input

 

Returns

TRUE if the input is at the eof.


gsf_input_remaining ()

gsf_off_t
gsf_input_remaining (GsfInput *input);

Parameters

input

the input stream

 

Returns

the number of bytes left in the file.


gsf_input_error_id ()

GQuark
gsf_input_error_id (void);

Returns

A utility quark to flag a GError as being an input problem.


gsf_input_sibling ()

GsfInput *
gsf_input_sibling (GsfInput const *input,
                   char const *name,
                   GError **err);

UNIMPLEMENTED BY ANY BACKEND and it is probably unnecessary. gsf_input_get_container provides enough power to do what is necessary.

Attempts to open a 'sibling' of input . The caller is responsible for managing the resulting object.

[virtual OpenSibling]

Parameters

input

The input

 

name

name.

 

err

place to store a GError if anything goes wrong.

[allow-none]

Returns

A related GsfInput.

[transfer full]


gsf_input_error ()

GQuark
gsf_input_error (void);

gsf_input_error is deprecated and should not be used in newly-written code.

Deprecated as of GSF 1.12.0; use gsf_input_error_id() instead.

Returns

A utility quark to flag a GError as being an input problem.


gsf_input_name ()

char const   *
gsf_input_name (GsfInput *input);

The name of the input stream.

Parameters

input

the input stream

 

Returns

input 's name in utf8 form, or NULL if it has no name.

[transfer none]


gsf_input_set_name_from_filename ()

gboolean
gsf_input_set_name_from_filename (GsfInput *input,
                                  char const *filename);

protected.

Parameters

input

the input stream

 

filename

the (fs-sys encoded) filename

 

Returns

TRUE if the assignment was ok.


gsf_input_proxy_new ()

GsfInput *
gsf_input_proxy_new (GsfInput *source);

This creates a new proxy to the entire, given input source. See gsf_input_proxy_new_section for details.

Parameters

source

The underlying data source.

 

Returns

a new input object.


gsf_input_proxy_new_section ()

GsfInput *
gsf_input_proxy_new_section (GsfInput *source,
                             gsf_off_t offset,
                             gsf_off_t size);

This creates a new proxy to a section of the given source. The new object will have its own current position, but any operation on it can change the source's position.

If a proxy to a proxy is created, the intermediate proxy is short- circuited.

This function will ref the source.

Parameters

source

The underlying data source.

 

offset

Offset into source for start of section.

 

size

Length of section.

 

Returns

a new input object.


gsf_input_copy ()

gboolean
gsf_input_copy (GsfInput *input,
                GsfOutput *output);

Copy the contents from input to output from their respective current positions. So if you want to be sure to copy *everything*, make sure to call gsf_input_seek (input, 0, G_SEEK_SET) and gsf_output_seek (output, 0, G_SEEK_SET) first, if applicable.

Parameters

input

a non-null GsfInput

 

output

a non-null GsfOutput

 

Returns

TRUE on success


gsf_input_uncompress ()

GsfInput *
gsf_input_uncompress (GsfInput *src);

This functions takes ownership of the incoming reference and yields a new one as its output.

Parameters

src

stream to be uncompressed.

[transfer full]

Returns

A stream equivalent to the source stream, but uncompressed if the source was compressed.

[transfer full]

Types and Values

GsfInput

typedef struct _GsfInput GsfInput;

Class representing an input stream.


GsfInputProxy

typedef struct _GsfInputProxy GsfInputProxy;
