This type of pointer is used whenever you retrieve an input stream from a file collection such as the ZipFile class. Having shared pointers ensures that the pointers can be shared between various functions and it gets deleted in the end.

This FileCollection constructor initializes the object and mark it as invalid. In most cases an invalid collection cannot be used for anything. You may make it valid by copying a valid collection in it.

By default the FileCollection is given the special filename '-'.

The collection is empty and marked as invalid.

Definition at line 269 of file filecollection.cpp.

This constructor copies a file collection (src) in a new collection.

The copy entries that all the entries from the source collection get cloned in the copy. This means entries in the source or new collection can be modified and it has no effect on the entries in the other collection.

Parameters

src The source collection to copy in this collection.

Definition at line 288 of file filecollection.cpp.

References m_entries.

The FileCollection destructor makes sure that any resources still allocated get released.

For example, the ZipFile implementation calls the close() function.

Note

Note that the entries generally get released when this destructor is called. However, since we are using shared pointers, you may still hold valid pointers to the entries even after the FileCollection destructor was called.

Definition at line 349 of file filecollection.cpp.

This function adds an entry to the file collection allowing you to create a FileCollection from the exact files you want to have in the collection instead of having to read an entire directory as the DirectoryCollection offers by default.

Warning

This function creates a clone of the entry to make sure that the caller's entry can be modified without affecting the FileCollection.

Parameters

entry The entry to add to the FileCollection.

Definition at line 368 of file filecollection.cpp.

References zipios::FileEntry::clone(), and m_entries.

This function creates a heap allocated clone of the object this method is called for.

Returns

A shared pointer to a copy of the object this method is called for.

Implemented in zipios::CollectionCollection, zipios::DirectoryCollection, and zipios::ZipFile.

This function closes the current file entry.

This function returns a copy of the file collection vector of entries. Note that the vector is copied but not the entries, so modifications to the entries will be reflected in this FileCollection entries. However, adding and removing entries to the collection is not reflected in the copy.

Returns

A vector containing the entries of this FileCollection.

Referenced by zipios::DirectoryCollection::entries(), getEntry(), main(), zipios::operator<<(), zipios::ZipFile::saveCollectionToArchive(), setLevel(), setMethod(), and size().

This function returns a shared pointer to a FileEntry object for the entry with the specified name. To ignore the path part of the filename while searching for a match, specify FileCollection::IGNORE as the second argument.

Note

The collection must be valid or the function raises an exception.

Parameters

name A string containing the name of the entry to get.
matchpath Specify MatchPath::MATCH, if the path should match as well, specify MatchPath::IGNORE, if the path should be ignored.

Returns

A shared pointer to the found entry. The returned pointer is null if no entry is found.

mustBeValid()

Reimplemented in zipios::CollectionCollection, and zipios::DirectoryCollection.

Definition at line 424 of file filecollection.cpp.

References entries(), m_entries, MATCH, and mustBeValid().

Referenced by zipios::DirectoryCollection::getEntry(), zipios::ZipFile::getInputStream(), and main().

This function returns a shared pointer to an istream defined from the named entry which is expected to be available in this collection.

The function returns a NULL pointer if there is no entry with the specified name in this FileCollection.

Note that the function returns a smart pointer to an istream. In general the FileCollection will not hold that pointer meaning that if you call getInputStream() multiple times with the same entry_name parameter, you get distinct istream instances each time.

By default the entry_name parameter is expected to match the full path and filename (MatchPath::MATCH). If you are looking for a file and want to ignore the directory name, set the matchpath parameter to MatchPath::IGNORE.

Warning

In version 1.0 there was a version of the function accepting a FileEntry instead of a filename. That function was simply calling this function with file_entry->getName() and MatchPath::MATCH so you can convert the call with:

// old code:
ConstEntryPointer ent = zf.getEntry("file2.txt", FileCollection::IGNORE);
if(ent)
{
    auto_ptr<istream> is(getInputStream(ent));
    if(is)
    {
        // got access to the file in the archive
        ...
    }
}

// new code:
zipios::FileEntry::pointer_t ent(zf.getEntry(argv[2], zipios::FileCollection::MatchPath::IGNORE));
if(ent)
{
    zipios::ZipFile::stream_pointer_t is(zf.getInputStream(ent->getName()));
    if(is)
    {
        // got access to the file in the archive
        ...
    }
}

Parameters

entry_name The name of the file to search in the collection.
matchpath Whether the full path or just the filename is matched.

Returns

A shared pointer to an open istream for the specified entry.

References m_filename, and mustBeValid().

Referenced by zipios::operator<<().

This function returns true if the collection is valid.

Note that by default (just after a new) a collection is not considered valid.

Returns

true if the collection is valid.

References m_valid.

Referenced by zipios::CollectionCollection::addCollection().

This function verifies that the collection is valid. If not, an exception is raised. Many other functions from the various collection functions are calling this function before accessing data.

Exceptions

InvalidStateException This exception is raised if the m_valid field is currently false and thus most of the collection data is considered invalid.

This function copies the rhs collection in this collection.

Note that the entries in the this collection get released. If you still have a reference to them in a shared pointer, they will not be deleted.

The entries in rhs get cloned so modifying the entries in the source or the destination has no effect on the entries of the other collection.

Parameters

rhs The source FileCollection to copy.

Returns

A reference to this FileCollection object.

This function changes the compression level of all the entries in this collection to the specified value.

The size limit is used to know which compression level to use: small_compression_level for any file that has a size smaller or equal to the specified limit and large_compression_level for the others.

Parameters

limit The threshold to use to define the compression level.
small_compression_level The compression level for smaller files.
large_compression_level The compression level for larger files.
