src/pmc/packfile.pmc - Packfile PMC

DESCRIPTION

This class implements a Packfile object, as specified in PDD13. This object is the top level parser and serializer for *.pbc files.

Methods

void init()

Initialize the structure. (Create a blank PackFile object.)

void destroy()

Destroys the PackFile object.

void mark()

Marks the Packfile as alive.

STRING *get_string()

Return raw serialized PBC file data.

void set_string_native(STRING *str)

Parse raw serialized PBC file data into the Packfile data structure.

INTVAL get_integer_keyed_str(STRING *key)

Fetch an integer keyed value from the packfile object. Valid keys are:

wordsize

byteorder

fptype

version_major

version_minor

version_patch

bytecode_major

bytecode_minor

uuid_type

uuid_length

STRING *get_string_keyed_str(STRING *key)

Fetch a string keyed value from the packfile object. Valid keys are:

uuid

INTVAL get_integer_keyed(PMC *key)

Fetch a keyed integer value from the packfile object. Dispatches to get_integer_keyed_str.

STRING *get_string_keyed(PMC *key)

Fetch a keyed string value from the packfile object. Dispatches to get_string_keyed_str.

void set_integer_keyed_str(STRING *key, INTVAL value)

Set an integer keyed value to the specified value. Valid keys are:

version_major

version_minor

version_patch

uuid_type

void set_integer_keyed(PMC *key, INTVALval)

Set a keyed integer value in the packfile object. Dispatches to set_integer_keyed_str.

* get_string_keyed_str (v-table)

Used to get data about fields in the header that have a string value. Valid keys are:

uuid

void set_string_keyed(PMC *key, STRING *val)

Set a keyed string value in the packfile object. Dispatches to set_string_keyed_str.

STRING *pack()

Return raw serialized PBC file data. Synonym for get_string.

STRING *unpack()

Parse raw serialized PBC file data into the Packfile data structure. Synonym for set_string.

PMC *get_directory()

Fetch the PackfileDirectory PMC that represents the directory segment at the start of the packfile.
