10 @class wxArchiveInputStream
13 An abstract base class which serves as a common interface to
14 archive input streams such as wxZipInputStream.
16 wxArchiveInputStream::GetNextEntry returns an wxArchiveEntry object containing
17 the meta-data for the next entry in the archive (and gives away ownership).
19 Reading from the wxArchiveInputStream then returns the entry's data. Eof()
20 becomes @true after an attempt has been made to read past the end of the
23 When there are no more entries, GetNextEntry() returns @NULL and sets Eof().
28 @see @ref overview_archive, wxArchiveEntry, wxArchiveOutputStream
30 class wxArchiveInputStream
: public wxFilterInputStream
34 Closes the current entry. On a non-seekable stream reads to the end of
35 the current entry first.
40 Closes the current entry if one is open, then reads the meta-data for
41 the next entry and returns it in a wxArchiveEntry object, giving away
42 ownership. Reading this wxArchiveInputStream then returns the entry's data.
44 wxArchiveEntry
* GetNextEntry();
47 Closes the current entry if one is open, then opens the entry specified
48 by the wxArchiveEntry object.
50 @a entry must be from the same archive file that this wxArchiveInputStream
51 is reading, and it must be reading it from a seekable stream.
53 bool OpenEntry(wxArchiveEntry
& entry
);
59 @class wxArchiveOutputStream
62 An abstract base class which serves as a common interface to
63 archive output streams such as wxZipOutputStream.
65 wxArchiveOutputStream::PutNextEntry is used to create a new entry in the
66 output archive, then the entry's data is written to the wxArchiveOutputStream.
67 Another call to PutNextEntry() closes the current entry and begins the next.
72 @see @ref overview_archive, wxArchiveEntry, wxArchiveInputStream
74 class wxArchiveOutputStream
: public wxFilterOutputStream
78 Calls Close() if it has not already been called.
80 ~wxArchiveOutputStream();
83 Closes the archive, returning @true if it was successfully written.
84 Called by the destructor if not called explicitly.
89 Close the current entry.
90 It is called implicitly whenever another new entry is created with CopyEntry()
91 or PutNextEntry(), or when the archive is closed.
96 Some archive formats have additional meta-data that applies to the archive
98 For example in the case of zip there is a comment, which is stored at the end
99 of the zip file. CopyArchiveMetaData() can be used to transfer such information
100 when writing a modified copy of an archive.
102 Since the position of the meta-data can vary between the various archive
103 formats, it is best to call CopyArchiveMetaData() before transferring
104 the entries. The wxArchiveOutputStream will then hold on to the meta-data
105 and write it at the correct point in the output file.
107 When the input archive is being read from a non-seekable stream, the
108 meta-data may not be available when CopyArchiveMetaData() is called,
109 in which case the two streams set up a link and transfer the data
110 when it becomes available.
112 bool CopyArchiveMetaData(wxArchiveInputStream
& stream
);
115 Takes ownership of @a entry and uses it to create a new entry in the
116 archive. @a entry is then opened in the input stream @e stream
117 and its contents copied to this stream.
119 For archive types which compress entry data, CopyEntry() is likely to be
120 much more efficient than transferring the data using Read() and Write()
121 since it will copy them without decompressing and recompressing them.
123 @a entry must be from the same archive file that @a stream is
124 accessing. For non-seekable streams, @a entry must also be the last
125 thing read from @e stream.
127 bool CopyEntry(wxArchiveEntry
* entry
,
128 wxArchiveInputStream
& stream
);
131 Create a new directory entry (see wxArchiveEntry::IsDir) with the given
134 PutNextEntry() can also be used to create directory entries, by supplying
135 a name with a trailing path separator.
137 bool PutNextDirEntry(const wxString
& name
);
140 Takes ownership of entry and uses it to create a new entry in the archive.
141 The entry's data can then be written by writing to this wxArchiveOutputStream.
143 bool PutNextEntry(wxArchiveEntry
* entry
);
146 Create a new entry with the given name, timestamp and size. The entry's
147 data can then be written by writing to this wxArchiveOutputStream.
149 bool PutNextEntry(const wxString
& name
, const wxDateTime
& dt
= wxDateTime::Now(),
150 off_t size
= wxInvalidOffset
);
156 @class wxArchiveEntry
159 An abstract base class which serves as a common interface to
160 archive entry classes such as wxZipEntry.
161 These hold the meta-data (filename, timestamp, etc.), for entries
162 in archive files such as zips and tars.
164 <b>About non-seekable streams</b>: this information applies only when reading
165 archives from non-seekable streams. When the stream is seekable GetNextEntry()
166 returns a fully populated wxArchiveEntry.
167 See @ref overview_archive_noseek for more information.
169 For generic programming, when the worst case must be assumed, you can rely on
170 all the fields of wxArchiveEntry being fully populated when
171 wxArchiveInputStream::GetNextEntry() returns, with the the following exceptions:
173 @li GetSize(): guaranteed to be available after the entry has been read to Eof(),
174 or CloseEntry() has been called;
175 @li IsReadOnly(): guaranteed to be available after the end of the archive has
176 been reached, i.e. after GetNextEntry() returns NULL and Eof() is true.
181 @see @ref overview_archive, @ref overview_archive_generic,
182 wxArchiveInputStream, wxArchiveOutputStream, wxArchiveNotifier
184 class wxArchiveEntry
: public wxObject
188 Returns a copy of this entry object.
190 wxArchiveEntry
* Clone() const;
193 Gets the entry's timestamp.
195 wxDateTime
GetDateTime();
198 Sets the entry's timestamp.
200 const void SetDateTime(const wxDateTime
& dt
);
203 Returns the entry's name, by default in the native format.
204 The name can include directory components, i.e. it can be a full path.
206 If this is a directory entry, (i.e. if IsDir() is @true) then the
207 returned string is the name with a trailing path separator.
209 wxString
GetName(wxPathFormat format
= wxPATH_NATIVE
);
212 Sets the entry's name.
213 Setting a name with a trailing path separator sets IsDir().
217 const void SetName(const wxString
& name
,
218 wxPathFormat format
= wxPATH_NATIVE
);
221 Returns the size of the entry's data in bytes.
226 Sets the size of the entry's data in bytes.
228 const void SetSize(off_t size
);
231 Returns the path format used internally within the archive to store
234 wxPathFormat
GetInternalFormat() const;
237 Returns the entry's filename in the internal format used within the
238 archive. The name can include directory components, i.e. it can be a
241 The names of directory entries are returned without any trailing path
242 separator. This gives a canonical name that can be used in comparisons.
244 @see @ref overview_archive_byname
246 wxString
GetInternalName() const;
249 Returns a numeric value unique to the entry within the archive.
251 off_t
GetOffset() const;
254 Returns @true if this is a directory entry.
256 Directory entries are entries with no data, which are used to store
257 the meta-data of directories. They also make it possible for completely
258 empty directories to be stored.
261 The names of entries within an archive can be complete paths, and
262 unarchivers typically create whatever directories are necessary as they
263 restore files, even if the archive contains no explicit directory entries.
268 Marks this entry as a directory if @a isDir is @true. See IsDir() for more info.
270 const void SetIsDir(bool isDir
= true);
273 Returns @true if the entry is a read-only file.
278 Sets this entry as a read-only file.
280 const void SetIsReadOnly(bool isReadOnly
= true);
283 Sets the notifier (see wxArchiveNotifier) for this entry.
285 Whenever the wxArchiveInputStream updates this entry, it will then invoke
286 the associated notifier's wxArchiveNotifier::OnEntryUpdated method.
288 Setting a notifier is not usually necessary. It is used to handle
289 certain cases when modifying an archive in a pipeline (i.e. between
290 non-seekable streams).
292 void SetNotifier(wxArchiveNotifier
& notifier
);
295 Unsets the notifier eventually attached to this entry.
297 void UnsetNotifier();
302 Type of stream enumeration; used by wxArchiveClassFactory methods.
304 enum wxStreamProtocolType
306 wxSTREAM_PROTOCOL
, //!< wxFileSystem protocol (should be only one)
307 wxSTREAM_MIMETYPE
, //!< MIME types the stream handles
308 wxSTREAM_ENCODING
, //!< Not used for archives
309 wxSTREAM_FILEEXT
//!< File extensions the stream handles
313 @class wxArchiveClassFactory
316 Allows the creation of streams to handle archive formats such as zip and tar.
318 For example, given a filename you can search for a factory that will
319 handle it and create a stream to read it:
322 factory = wxArchiveClassFactory::Find(filename, wxSTREAM_FILEEXT);
324 stream = factory->NewStream(new wxFFileInputStream(filename));
327 wxArchiveClassFactory::Find can also search for a factory by MIME type
328 or wxFileSystem protocol.
330 The available factories can be enumerated using
331 wxArchiveClassFactory::GetFirst() and wxArchiveClassFactory::GetNext().
336 @see @ref overview_archive, @ref overview_archive_generic, wxArchiveEntry,
337 wxArchiveInputStream, wxArchiveOutputStream, wxFilterClassFactory
339 class wxArchiveClassFactory
: public wxObject
343 Returns @true if this factory can handle the given protocol, MIME type
346 When using wxSTREAM_FILEEXT for the second parameter, the first parameter
347 can be a complete filename rather than just an extension.
349 bool CanHandle(const wxChar
* protocol
,
350 wxStreamProtocolType type
= wxSTREAM_PROTOCOL
) const;
353 A static member that finds a factory that can handle a given protocol, MIME
354 type or file extension. Returns a pointer to the class factory if found, or
355 @NULL otherwise. It does not give away ownership of the factory.
357 When using wxSTREAM_FILEEXT for the second parameter, the first parameter
358 can be a complete filename rather than just an extension.
360 static const wxArchiveClassFactory
* Find(const wxChar
* protocol
,
361 wxStreamProtocolType type
= wxSTREAM_PROTOCOL
);
364 Returns the wxMBConv object that the created streams will use when
365 translating meta-data. The initial default, set by the constructor,
368 wxMBConv
GetConv() const;
371 Sets the wxMBConv object that the created streams will use when
372 translating meta-data.
374 void SetConv(wxMBConv
& conv
);
378 GetFirst and GetNext can be used to enumerate the available factories.
379 For example, to list them:
383 const wxArchiveClassFactory *factory = wxArchiveClassFactory::GetFirst();
386 list << factory->GetProtocol() << _T("\n");
387 factory = factory->GetNext();
391 GetFirst() and GetNext() return a pointer to a factory or @NULL if no more
392 are available. They do not give away ownership of the factory.
394 static const wxArchiveClassFactory
* GetFirst() const;
395 const wxArchiveClassFactory
* GetNext() const;
399 Calls the static GetInternalName() function for the archive entry type,
400 for example wxZipEntry::GetInternalName.
402 wxString
GetInternalName(const wxString
& name
,
403 wxPathFormat format
= wxPATH_NATIVE
) const;
406 Returns the wxFileSystem protocol supported by this factory.
407 Equivalent to @code wxString(*GetProtocols()) @endcode.
409 wxString
GetProtocol() const;
412 Returns the protocols, MIME types or file extensions supported by this
413 factory, as an array of null terminated strings.
415 It does not give away ownership of the array or strings.
416 For example, to list the file extensions a factory supports:
420 const wxChar *const *p;
422 for (p = factory->GetProtocols(wxSTREAM_FILEEXT); *p; p++)
423 list << *p << _T("\n");
426 const wxChar
* const* GetProtocols(wxStreamProtocolType type
= wxSTREAM_PROTOCOL
) const;
429 Create a new wxArchiveEntry object of the appropriate type.
431 wxArchiveEntry
* NewEntry() const;
435 Create a new input or output stream to read or write an archive.
437 If the parent stream is passed as a pointer then the new archive stream
438 takes ownership of it. If it is passed by reference then it does not.
440 wxArchiveInputStream
* NewStream(wxInputStream
& stream
) const;
441 wxArchiveOutputStream
* NewStream(wxOutputStream
& stream
) const;
442 wxArchiveInputStream
* NewStream(wxInputStream
* stream
) const;
443 wxArchiveOutputStream
* NewStream(wxOutputStream
* stream
) const;
447 Adds this class factory to the list returned by GetFirst() or GetNext().
449 It is not necessary to do this to use the archive streams. It is usually
450 used when implementing streams, typically the implementation will
451 add a static instance of its factory class.
453 It can also be used to change the order of a factory already in the list,
454 bringing it to the front. This isn't a thread safe operation
455 so can't be done when other threads are running that will be using the list.
456 The list does not take ownership of the factory.
461 Removes this class factory from the list returned by GetFirst() and GetNext().
463 Removing from the list isn't a thread safe operation so can't be done when
464 other threads are running that will be using the list.
465 The list does not own the factories, so removing a factory does not delete it.
473 @class wxArchiveNotifier
476 If you need to know when a wxArchiveInputStream updates a wxArchiveEntry
477 object, you can create a notifier by deriving from this abstract base class,
478 overriding wxArchiveNotifier::OnEntryUpdated.
480 An instance of your notifier class can then be assigned to the wxArchiveEntry
481 object using wxArchiveEntry::SetNotifier.
482 Your OnEntryUpdated() method will then be invoked whenever the input
483 stream updates the entry.
485 Setting a notifier is not usually necessary. It is used to handle
486 certain cases when modifying an archive in a pipeline (i.e. between
487 non-seekable streams).
488 See @ref overview_archive_noseek.
493 @see @ref overview_archive_noseek, wxArchiveEntry, wxArchiveInputStream,
494 wxArchiveOutputStream
496 class wxArchiveNotifier
500 This method must be overridden in your derived class.
502 void OnEntryUpdated(class wxArchiveEntry
& entry
);
508 @class wxArchiveIterator
511 An input iterator template class that can be used to transfer an archive's
512 catalogue to a container. It is only available if wxUSE_STL is set to 1
513 in setup.h, and the uses for it outlined below require a compiler which
514 supports member templates.
517 template class Arc, class T = typename Arc::entry_type*
518 class wxArchiveIterator
520 // this constructor creates an 'end of sequence' object
523 // template parameter 'Arc' should be the type of an archive input stream
524 wxArchiveIterator(Arc& arc) {
530 The first template parameter should be the type of archive input stream
531 (e.g. wxArchiveInputStream) and the second can either be a pointer to an entry
532 (e.g. wxArchiveEntry*), or a string/pointer pair (e.g. std::pairwxString,
535 The @c wx/archive.h header defines the following typedefs:
538 typedef wxArchiveIterator<wxArchiveInputStream> wxArchiveIter;
540 typedef wxArchiveIterator<wxArchiveInputStream,
541 std::pair<wxString, wxArchiveEntry*> > wxArchivePairIter;
544 The header for any implementation of this interface should define similar
545 typedefs for its types, for example in @c wx/zipstrm.h there is:
548 typedef wxArchiveIterator<wxZipInputStream> wxZipIter;
550 typedef wxArchiveIterator<wxZipInputStream,
551 std::pair<wxString, wxZipEntry*> > wxZipPairIter;
554 Transferring the catalogue of an archive @e arc to a vector @e cat,
555 can then be done something like this:
558 std::vector<wxArchiveEntry*> cat((wxArchiveIter)arc, wxArchiveIter());
561 When the iterator is dereferenced, it gives away ownership of an entry
562 object. So in the above example, when you have finished with @e cat
563 you must delete the pointers it contains.
565 If you have smart pointers with normal copy semantics (i.e. not auto_ptr
566 or wxScopedPtr), then you can create an iterator which uses them instead.
568 For example, with a smart pointer class for zip entries @e ZipEntryPtr:
571 typedef std::vector<ZipEntryPtr> ZipCatalog;
572 typedef wxArchiveIterator<wxZipInputStream, ZipEntryPtr> ZipIter;
573 ZipCatalog cat((ZipIter)zip, ZipIter());
576 Iterators that return std::pair objects can be used to populate a std::multimap,
577 to allow entries to be looked up by name.
578 The string is initialised using the wxArchiveEntry object's
579 wxArchiveEntry::GetInternalName function.
582 typedef std::multimap<wxString, wxZipEntry*> ZipCatalog;
583 ZipCatalog cat((wxZipPairIter)zip, wxZipPairIter());
586 Note that this iterator also gives away ownership of an entry
587 object each time it is dereferenced. So in the above example, when
588 you have finished with @e cat you must delete the pointers it contains.
590 Or if you have them, a pair containing a smart pointer can be used
591 (again @e ZipEntryPtr), no worries about ownership:
594 typedef std::multimap<wxString, ZipEntryPtr> ZipCatalog;
595 typedef wxArchiveIterator<wxZipInputStream,
596 std::pair<wxString, ZipEntryPtr> > ZipPairIter;
597 ZipCatalog cat((ZipPairIter)zip, ZipPairIter());
603 @see wxArchiveEntry, wxArchiveInputStream, wxArchiveOutputStream
605 class wxArchiveIterator
614 Construct the iterator that returns all the entries in the archive input
617 wxArchiveIterator(Arc
& arc
);
620 Returns an entry object from the archive input stream, giving away
623 const T
operator*() const;
627 Position the input iterator at the next entry in the archive input stream.
629 wxArchiveIterator
operator++();
630 wxArchiveIterator
operator++(int);
