249=head1 DESCRIPTION
250
251This module provides a Perl interface that allows the reading of
252files/buffers that conform to RFC 1950.
253
254For writing RFC 1950 files/buffers, see the companion module IO::Compress::Deflate.
255
256=head1 Functional Interface
257
258A top-level function, C<inflate>, is provided to carry out
259"one-shot" uncompression between buffers and/or files. For finer
260control over the uncompression process, see the L</"OO Interface">
261section.
262
263    use IO::Uncompress::Inflate qw(inflate $InflateError) ;
264
265    inflate $input_filename_or_reference => $output_filename_or_reference [,OPTS]
266        or die "inflate failed: $InflateError\n";
267
268The functional interface needs Perl5.005 or better.
269
270=head2 inflate $input_filename_or_reference => $output_filename_or_reference [, OPTS]
271
272C<inflate> expects at least two parameters,
273C<$input_filename_or_reference> and C<$output_filename_or_reference>
274and zero or more optional parameters (see L</Optional Parameters>)
275
276=head3 The C<$input_filename_or_reference> parameter
277
278The parameter, C<$input_filename_or_reference>, is used to define the
279source of the compressed data.
280
281It can take one of the following forms:
282
283=over 5
284
285=item A filename
286
287If the C<$input_filename_or_reference> parameter is a simple scalar, it is
288assumed to be a filename. This file will be opened for reading and the
289input data will be read from it.
290
291=item A filehandle
292
293If the C<$input_filename_or_reference> parameter is a filehandle, the input
294data will be read from it.  The string '-' can be used as an alias for
295standard input.
296
297=item A scalar reference
298
299If C<$input_filename_or_reference> is a scalar reference, the input data
300will be read from C<$$input_filename_or_reference>.
301
302=item An array reference
303
304If C<$input_filename_or_reference> is an array reference, each element in
305the array must be a filename.
306
307The input data will be read from each file in turn.
308
309The complete array will be walked to ensure that it only
310contains valid filenames before any data is uncompressed.
311
312=item An Input FileGlob string
313
314If C<$input_filename_or_reference> is a string that is delimited by the
315characters "<" and ">" C<inflate> will assume that it is an
316I<input fileglob string>. The input is the list of files that match the
317fileglob.
318
319See L<File::GlobMapper|File::GlobMapper> for more details.
320
321=back
322
323If the C<$input_filename_or_reference> parameter is any other type,
324C<undef> will be returned.
325
326=head3 The C<$output_filename_or_reference> parameter
327
328The parameter C<$output_filename_or_reference> is used to control the
329destination of the uncompressed data. This parameter can take one of
330these forms.
331
332=over 5
333
334=item A filename
335
336If the C<$output_filename_or_reference> parameter is a simple scalar, it is
337assumed to be a filename.  This file will be opened for writing and the
338uncompressed data will be written to it.
339
340=item A filehandle
341
342If the C<$output_filename_or_reference> parameter is a filehandle, the
343uncompressed data will be written to it.  The string '-' can be used as
344an alias for standard output.
345
346=item A scalar reference
347
348If C<$output_filename_or_reference> is a scalar reference, the
349uncompressed data will be stored in C<$$output_filename_or_reference>.
350
351=item An Array Reference
352
353If C<$output_filename_or_reference> is an array reference,
354the uncompressed data will be pushed onto the array.
355
356=item An Output FileGlob
357
358If C<$output_filename_or_reference> is a string that is delimited by the
359characters "<" and ">" C<inflate> will assume that it is an
360I<output fileglob string>. The output is the list of files that match the
361fileglob.
362
363When C<$output_filename_or_reference> is an fileglob string,
364C<$input_filename_or_reference> must also be a fileglob string. Anything
365else is an error.
366
367See L<File::GlobMapper|File::GlobMapper> for more details.
368
369=back
370
371If the C<$output_filename_or_reference> parameter is any other type,
372C<undef> will be returned.
373
374=head2 Notes
375
376When C<$input_filename_or_reference> maps to multiple compressed
377files/buffers and C<$output_filename_or_reference> is
378a single file/buffer, after uncompression C<$output_filename_or_reference> will contain a
379concatenation of all the uncompressed data from each of the input
380files/buffers.
381
382=head2 Optional Parameters
383
384The optional parameters for the one-shot function C<inflate>
385are (for the most part) identical to those used with the OO interface defined in the
386L</"Constructor Options"> section. The exceptions are listed below
387
388=over 5
389
390=item C<< AutoClose => 0|1 >>
391
392This option applies to any input or output data streams to
393C<inflate> that are filehandles.
394
395If C<AutoClose> is specified, and the value is true, it will result in all
396input and/or output filehandles being closed once C<inflate> has
397completed.
398
399This parameter defaults to 0.
400
401=item C<< BinModeOut => 0|1 >>
402
403This option is now a no-op. All files will be written  in binmode.
404
405=item C<< Append => 0|1 >>
406
407The behaviour of this option is dependent on the type of output data
408stream.
409
410=over 5
411
412=item * A Buffer
413
414If C<Append> is enabled, all uncompressed data will be append to the end of
415the output buffer. Otherwise the output buffer will be cleared before any
416uncompressed data is written to it.
417
418=item * A Filename
419
420If C<Append> is enabled, the file will be opened in append mode. Otherwise
421the contents of the file, if any, will be truncated before any uncompressed
422data is written to it.
423
424=item * A Filehandle
425
426If C<Append> is enabled, the filehandle will be positioned to the end of
427the file via a call to C<seek> before any uncompressed data is
428written to it.  Otherwise the file pointer will not be moved.
429
430=back
431
432When C<Append> is specified, and set to true, it will I<append> all uncompressed
433data to the output data stream.
434
435So when the output is a filehandle it will carry out a seek to the eof
436before writing any uncompressed data. If the output is a filename, it will be opened for
437appending. If the output is a buffer, all uncompressed data will be
438appended to the existing buffer.
439
440Conversely when C<Append> is not specified, or it is present and is set to
441false, it will operate as follows.
442
443When the output is a filename, it will truncate the contents of the file
444before writing any uncompressed data. If the output is a filehandle
445its position will not be changed. If the output is a buffer, it will be
446wiped before any uncompressed data is output.
447
448Defaults to 0.
449
450=item C<< MultiStream => 0|1 >>
451
452If the input file/buffer contains multiple compressed data streams, this
453option will uncompress the whole lot as a single data stream.
454
455Defaults to 0.
456
457=item C<< TrailingData => $scalar >>
458
459Returns the data, if any, that is present immediately after the compressed
460data stream once uncompression is complete.
461
462This option can be used when there is useful information immediately
463following the compressed data stream, and you don't know the length of the
464compressed data stream.
465
466If the input is a buffer, C<trailingData> will return everything from the
467end of the compressed data stream to the end of the buffer.
468
469If the input is a filehandle, C<trailingData> will return the data that is
470left in the filehandle input buffer once the end of the compressed data
471stream has been reached. You can then use the filehandle to read the rest
472of the input file.
473
474Don't bother using C<trailingData> if the input is a filename.
475
476If you know the length of the compressed data stream before you start
477uncompressing, you can avoid having to use C<trailingData> by setting the
478C<InputLength> option.
479
480=back
481
482=head2 OneShot Examples
483
484To read the contents of the file C<file1.txt.1950> and write the
485uncompressed data to the file C<file1.txt>.
486
487    use strict ;
488    use warnings ;
489    use IO::Uncompress::Inflate qw(inflate $InflateError) ;
490
491    my $input = "file1.txt.1950";
492    my $output = "file1.txt";
493    inflate $input => $output
494        or die "inflate failed: $InflateError\n";
495
496To read from an existing Perl filehandle, C<$input>, and write the
497uncompressed data to a buffer, C<$buffer>.
498
499    use strict ;
500    use warnings ;
501    use IO::Uncompress::Inflate qw(inflate $InflateError) ;
502    use IO::File ;
503
504    my $input = IO::File->new( "<file1.txt.1950" )
505        or die "Cannot open 'file1.txt.1950': $!\n" ;
506    my $buffer ;
507    inflate $input => \$buffer
508        or die "inflate failed: $InflateError\n";
509
510To uncompress all files in the directory "/my/home" that match "*.txt.1950" and store the compressed data in the same directory
511
512    use strict ;
513    use warnings ;
514    use IO::Uncompress::Inflate qw(inflate $InflateError) ;
515
516    inflate '</my/home/*.txt.1950>' => '</my/home/#1.txt>'
517        or die "inflate failed: $InflateError\n";
518
519and if you want to compress each file one at a time, this will do the trick
520
521    use strict ;
522    use warnings ;
523    use IO::Uncompress::Inflate qw(inflate $InflateError) ;
524
525    for my $input ( glob "/my/home/*.txt.1950" )
526    {
527        my $output = $input;
528        $output =~ s/.1950// ;
529        inflate $input => $output
530            or die "Error compressing '$input': $InflateError\n";
531    }

540        or die "IO::Uncompress::Inflate failed: $InflateError\n";
541
542The constructor takes one mandatory parameter, C<$input>, defined below, and
543zero or more C<OPTS>, defined in L<Constructor Options>.
544
545Returns an C<IO::Uncompress::Inflate> object on success and undef on failure.
546The variable C<$InflateError> will contain an error message on failure.
547
548If you are running Perl 5.005 or better the object, C<$z>, returned from
549IO::Uncompress::Inflate can be used exactly like an L<IO::File|IO::File> filehandle.
550This means that all normal input file operations can be carried out with
551C<$z>.  For example, to read a line from a compressed file/buffer you can
552use either of these forms
553
554    $line = $z->getline();
555    $line = <$z>;
556
557Below is a simple exaple of using the OO interface to read the compressed file
558C<myfile.1950> and write its contents to stdout.
559
560    my $filename = "myfile.1950";
561    my $z = IO::Uncompress::Inflate->new($filename)
562        or die "IO::Uncompress::Inflate failed: $InflateError\n";
563
564    while (<$z>) {
565        print $_;
566    }
567    $z->close();
568
569See L</EXAMPLES> for further examples
570
571The mandatory parameter C<$input> is used to determine the source of the
572compressed data. This parameter can take one of three forms.
573
574=over 5
575
576=item A filename
577
578If the C<$input> parameter is a scalar, it is assumed to be a filename. This
579file will be opened for reading and the compressed data will be read from it.
580
581=item A filehandle
582
583If the C<$input> parameter is a filehandle, the compressed data will be
584read from it.
585The string '-' can be used as an alias for standard input.
586
587=item A scalar reference
588
589If C<$input> is a scalar reference, the compressed data will be read from
590C<$$input>.
591
592=back
593
594=head2 Constructor Options
595
596The option names defined below are case insensitive and can be optionally
597prefixed by a '-'.  So all of the following are valid
598
599    -AutoClose
600    -autoclose
601    AUTOCLOSE
602    autoclose
603
604OPTS is a combination of the following options:
605
606=over 5
607
608=item C<< AutoClose => 0|1 >>
609
610This option is only valid when the C<$input> parameter is a filehandle. If
611specified, and the value is true, it will result in the file being closed once
612either the C<close> method is called or the IO::Uncompress::Inflate object is
613destroyed.
614
615This parameter defaults to 0.
616
617=item C<< MultiStream => 0|1 >>
618
619Allows multiple concatenated compressed streams to be treated as a single
620compressed stream. Decompression will stop once either the end of the
621file/buffer is reached, an error is encountered (premature eof, corrupt
622compressed data) or the end of a stream is not immediately followed by the
623start of another stream.
624
625This parameter defaults to 0.
626
627=item C<< Prime => $string >>
628
629This option will uncompress the contents of C<$string> before processing the
630input file/buffer.
631
632This option can be useful when the compressed data is embedded in another
633file/data structure and it is not possible to work out where the compressed
634data begins without having to read the first few bytes. If this is the
635case, the uncompression can be I<primed> with these bytes using this
636option.
637
638=item C<< Transparent => 0|1 >>
639
640If this option is set and the input file/buffer is not compressed data,
641the module will allow reading of it anyway.
642
643In addition, if the input file/buffer does contain compressed data and
644there is non-compressed data immediately following it, setting this option
645will make this module treat the whole file/buffer as a single data stream.
646
647This option defaults to 1.
648
649=item C<< BlockSize => $num >>
650
651When reading the compressed input data, IO::Uncompress::Inflate will read it in
652blocks of C<$num> bytes.
653
654This option defaults to 4096.
655
656=item C<< InputLength => $size >>
657
658When present this option will limit the number of compressed bytes read
659from the input file/buffer to C<$size>. This option can be used in the
660situation where there is useful data directly after the compressed data
661stream and you know beforehand the exact length of the compressed data
662stream.
663
664This option is mostly used when reading from a filehandle, in which case
665the file pointer will be left pointing to the first byte directly after the
666compressed data stream.
667
668This option defaults to off.
669
670=item C<< Append => 0|1 >>
671
672This option controls what the C<read> method does with uncompressed data.
673
674If set to 1, all uncompressed data will be appended to the output parameter
675of the C<read> method.
676
677If set to 0, the contents of the output parameter of the C<read> method
678will be overwritten by the uncompressed data.
679
680Defaults to 0.
681
682=item C<< Strict => 0|1 >>
683
684This option controls whether the extra checks defined below are used when
685carrying out the decompression. When Strict is on, the extra tests are
686carried out, when Strict is off they are not.
687
688The default for this option is off.
689
690=over 5
691
692=item 1
693
694The ADLER32 checksum field must be present.
695
696=item 2
697
698The value of the ADLER32 field read must match the adler32 value of the
699uncompressed data actually contained in the file.

702
703=back
704
705=head1 Methods
706
707=head2 read
708
709Usage is
710
711    $status = $z->read($buffer)
712
713Reads a block of compressed data (the size of the compressed block is
714determined by the C<Buffer> option in the constructor), uncompresses it and
715writes any uncompressed data into C<$buffer>. If the C<Append> parameter is
716set in the constructor, the uncompressed data will be appended to the
717C<$buffer> parameter. Otherwise C<$buffer> will be overwritten.
718
719Returns the number of uncompressed bytes written to C<$buffer>, zero if eof
720or a negative number on error.
721
722=head2 read
723
724Usage is
725
726    $status = $z->read($buffer, $length)
727    $status = $z->read($buffer, $length, $offset)
728
729    $status = read($z, $buffer, $length)
730    $status = read($z, $buffer, $length, $offset)
731
732Attempt to read C<$length> bytes of uncompressed data into C<$buffer>.
733
734The main difference between this form of the C<read> method and the
735previous one, is that this one will attempt to return I<exactly> C<$length>
736bytes. The only circumstances that this function will not is if end-of-file
737or an IO error is encountered.
738
739Returns the number of uncompressed bytes written to C<$buffer>, zero if eof
740or a negative number on error.
741
742=head2 getline
743
744Usage is
745
746    $line = $z->getline()
747    $line = <$z>
748
749Reads a single line.
750
751This method fully supports the use of the variable C<$/> (or
752C<$INPUT_RECORD_SEPARATOR> or C<$RS> when C<English> is in use) to
753determine what constitutes an end of line. Paragraph mode, record mode and
754file slurp mode are all supported.
755
756=head2 getc
757
758Usage is
759
760    $char = $z->getc()
761
762Read a single character.
763
764=head2 ungetc
765
766Usage is
767
768    $char = $z->ungetc($string)
769
770=head2 inflateSync
771
772Usage is
773
774    $status = $z->inflateSync()
775
776TODO
777
778=head2 getHeaderInfo
779
780Usage is
781
782    $hdr  = $z->getHeaderInfo();
783    @hdrs = $z->getHeaderInfo();
784
785This method returns either a hash reference (in scalar context) or a list
786or hash references (in array context) that contains information about each
787of the header fields in the compressed data stream(s).
788
789=head2 tell
790
791Usage is
792
793    $z->tell()
794    tell $z
795
796Returns the uncompressed file offset.
797
798=head2 eof
799
800Usage is
801
802    $z->eof();
803    eof($z);
804
805Returns true if the end of the compressed input stream has been reached.
806
807=head2 seek
808
809    $z->seek($position, $whence);
810    seek($z, $position, $whence);
811
812Provides a sub-set of the C<seek> functionality, with the restriction
813that it is only legal to seek forward in the input file/buffer.
814It is a fatal error to attempt to seek backward.
815
816Note that the implementation of C<seek> in this module does not provide
817true random access to a compressed file/buffer. It  works by uncompressing
818data from the current offset in the file/buffer until it reaches the
819uncompressed offset specified in the parameters to C<seek>. For very small
820files this may be acceptable behaviour. For large files it may cause an
821unacceptable delay.
822
823The C<$whence> parameter takes one the usual values, namely SEEK_SET,
824SEEK_CUR or SEEK_END.
825
826Returns 1 on success, 0 on failure.
827
828=head2 binmode
829
830Usage is
831
832    $z->binmode
833    binmode $z ;
834
835This is a noop provided for completeness.
836
837=head2 opened
838
839    $z->opened()
840
841Returns true if the object currently refers to a opened file/buffer.
842
843=head2 autoflush
844
845    my $prev = $z->autoflush()
846    my $prev = $z->autoflush(EXPR)
847
848If the C<$z> object is associated with a file or a filehandle, this method
849returns the current autoflush setting for the underlying filehandle. If
850C<EXPR> is present, and is non-zero, it will enable flushing after every
851write/print operation.
852
853If C<$z> is associated with a buffer, this method has no effect and always
854returns C<undef>.
855
856B<Note> that the special variable C<$|> B<cannot> be used to set or
857retrieve the autoflush setting.
858
859=head2 input_line_number
860
861    $z->input_line_number()
862    $z->input_line_number(EXPR)
863
864Returns the current uncompressed line number. If C<EXPR> is present it has
865the effect of setting the line number. Note that setting the line number
866does not change the current position within the file/buffer being read.
867
868The contents of C<$/> are used to determine what constitutes a line
869terminator.
870
871=head2 fileno
872
873    $z->fileno()
874    fileno($z)
875
876If the C<$z> object is associated with a file or a filehandle, C<fileno>
877will return the underlying file descriptor. Once the C<close> method is
878called C<fileno> will return C<undef>.
879
880If the C<$z> object is associated with a buffer, this method will return
881C<undef>.
882
883=head2 close
884
885    $z->close() ;
886    close $z ;
887
888Closes the output file/buffer.
889
890For most versions of Perl this method will be automatically invoked if
891the IO::Uncompress::Inflate object is destroyed (either explicitly or by the
892variable with the reference to the object going out of scope). The
893exceptions are Perl versions 5.005 through 5.00504 and 5.8.0. In
894these cases, the C<close> method will be called automatically, but
895not until global destruction of all live objects when the program is
896terminating.
897
898Therefore, if you want your scripts to be able to run on all versions
899of Perl, you should call C<close> explicitly and not rely on automatic
900closing.
901
902Returns true on success, otherwise 0.
903
904If the C<AutoClose> option has been enabled when the IO::Uncompress::Inflate
905object was created, and the object is associated with a file, the
906underlying file will also be closed.
907
908=head2 nextStream
909
910Usage is
911
912    my $status = $z->nextStream();
913
914Skips to the next compressed data stream in the input file/buffer. If a new
915compressed data stream is found, the eof marker will be cleared and C<$.>
916will be reset to 0.
917
918Returns 1 if a new stream was found, 0 if none was found, and -1 if an
919error was encountered.
920
921=head2 trailingData
922
923Usage is
924
925    my $data = $z->trailingData();
926
927Returns the data, if any, that is present immediately after the compressed
928data stream once uncompression is complete. It only makes sense to call
929this method once the end of the compressed data stream has been
930encountered.
931
932This option can be used when there is useful information immediately
933following the compressed data stream, and you don't know the length of the
934compressed data stream.
935
936If the input is a buffer, C<trailingData> will return everything from the
937end of the compressed data stream to the end of the buffer.
938
939If the input is a filehandle, C<trailingData> will return the data that is
940left in the filehandle input buffer once the end of the compressed data
941stream has been reached. You can then use the filehandle to read the rest
942of the input file.
943
944Don't bother using C<trailingData> if the input is a filename.
945
946If you know the length of the compressed data stream before you start
947uncompressing, you can avoid having to use C<trailingData> by setting the
948C<InputLength> option in the constructor.
