perliso9660(3pm)
NAME
perliso9660 - lower-level wrapper to libiso9660, the ISO 9660 library of the CD Input and Control package
SYNOPSIS
This is fairly straight-forward wrapper around the C library libiso9660 Although this is perfectly usable on its own, it is expected that the Object-Oriented interface Device::Cdio::ISO9660 is what most people will want to use. There are various constants that are defined here.
DESCRIPTION
Encapsulation is done in two parts. The lower-level Perl interface is called perliso9660 (this file) and is generated via SWIG.

SUBROUTINES
Input Output open_iso Open an ISO 9660 image for reading. Maybe in the future we will have mode. undef is returned on error. open_ext Open an ISO 9660 image for reading allowing various ISO 9660 extensions. Maybe in the future we will have a mode. undef is eturned on error. open_fuzzy Open an ISO 9660 image for reading with some tolerence for positioning of the ISO9660 image. We scan for $perliso9660::ISO_STANDARD_ID and use that to set he eventual offset to adjust by (as long as that is <= i_fuzz). Maybe in the future we will have a mode. undef is returned on error. See also open_iso open_fuzzy_ext Open an ISO 9660 image for reading with some tolerence for positioning of the ISO9660 image. We scan for ISO_STANDARD_ID and use that to set the eventual offset to adjust by (as long as that is <= i_fuzz). Maybe in the future we will have a mode. undef is returned on error. ifs_fuzzy_read_superblock Read the Super block of an ISO 9660 image but determine framesize and datastart and a possible additional offset. Generally here we are not reading an ISO 9660 image but a CD-Image which contains an ISO 9660 filesystem. close Close previously opened ISO 9660 image. 1 is unconditionally returned. If there was an error 0 would be returned. seek_read Seek to a position and then read n bytes. (buffer, size) are is returned. fs_read_pvd Read the Primary Volume Descriptor for a CD. 1 is returned if read, and 0 if there was an error. ifs_read_pvd Read the Primary Volume Descriptor for an ISO 9660 image. 1 is returned if read, and 0 if there was an error. _fs_read_superblock Read the Super block of an ISO 9660 image. This is the Primary Volume Descriptor (PVD) and perhaps a Supplemental Volume Descriptor if (Joliet) extensions are acceptable. ifs_read_superblock Read the Super block of an ISO 9660 image. This is the Primary Volume Descriptor (PVD) and perhaps a Supplemental Volume Descriptor if (Joliet) extensions are acceptable. Time Conversion set_dtime Set time in format used in ISO 9660 directory index record from a Unix time structure. set_ltime Set "long" time in format used in ISO 9660 primary volume descriptor from a Unix time structure. get_dtime Get Unix time structure from format use in an ISO 9660 directory index record. Even though tm_wday and tm_yday fields are not explicitly in dtime, they are calculated from the other fields. If tm is to reflect the localtime, set "use_localtime" 1, otherwise tm will reported in GMT. get_ltime Get "long" time in format used in ISO 9660 primary volume descriptor from a Unix time structure. Character Classification and String Manipulation is_dchar Return 1 if c (an int) is a DCHAR - a character that can appear in an an ISO-9600 level 1 directory name. These are the ASCII capital letters A-Z, the digits 0-9 and an underscore. is_achar name_translate Convert an ISO-9660 file name that stored in a directory entry into what is usually listed as the file name in a listing. wercase name, and remove trailing ;1's or .;1's and turn the others into version numbers. name_translate_ext Convert an ISO-9660 file name that stored in a directory entry into what is usually listed as the file name in a listing. Lowercase name if no Joliet Extension interpretation. Remove trailing ;1's or .;1's and turn the others into version numbers. strncpy_pad Pad string src with spaces to size len and copy this to dst. If len is less than the length of src, dst will be truncated to the first len characters of src. src can also be scanned to see if it contains only ACHARs, DCHARs, 7-bit ASCII chars depending on the enumeration _check. In addition to getting changed, dst is the return value. Note: this string might not be undef terminated. File and Directory Names dirname_valid_p Check that psz_path is a valid ISO-9660 directory name. A valid directory name should not start out with a slash (/), dot (.) or null byte, should be less than 37 characters long, have no more than 8 characters in a directory component which is separated by a /, and consist of only DCHARs. 1 is returned if psz_path is valid. pathname_isofy Take psz_path and a version number and turn that into a ISO-9660 pathname. (That is just the pathname followed by ";" and the version number. For example, mydir/file.ext -> MYDIR/FILE.EXT;1 for version 1. The resulting ISO-9660 pathname is returned. pathname_valid_p Check that psz_path is a valid ISO-9660 pathname. A valid pathname contains a valid directory name, if one appears and the filename portion should be no more than 8 characters for the file prefix and 3 characters in the extension (or portion after a dot). There should be exactly one dot somewhere in the filename portion and the filename should be composed of only DCHARs. 1 is returned if psz_path is valid. fs_find_lsn Given a directory pointer, find the filesystem entry that contains lsn and return information about it. Returns stat_t of entry if we found lsn, or undef otherwise. ifs_find_lsn Given a directory pointer, find the filesystem entry that contains lsn and return information about it. Returns stat_t of entry if we found lsn, or undef otherwise. fs_stat Return file status for psz_path. undef is returned on error. fs_stat_translate Return file status for path name psz_path. undef is returned on error. pathname version numbers in the ISO 9660 name are dropped, i.e. ;1 is removed and if level 1 ISO-9660 names are lowercased. ifs_stat Return file status for pathname. undef is returned on error. ifs_stat_translate Return file status for path name psz_path. undef is returned on error. pathname version numbers in the ISO 9660 name are dropped, i.e. ;1 is removed and if level 1 ISO-9660 names are lowercased. fs_readdir Read psz_path (a directory) and return a list of iso9660_stat_t pointers for the files inside that directory. The caller must free the returned result. ifs_readdir Read psz_path (a directory) and return a list of iso9660_stat_t pointers for the files inside that directory. The caller must free the returned result. get_dir_len Return the directory name stored in the iso9660_dir_t A string is allocated: the caller must deallocate. dir_to_name get_posix_filemode Returns a POSIX mode for a given p_iso_dirent. Primary Volume Descriptor Routines get_application_id Return the PVD's application ID. undef is returned if there is some problem in getting this. ifs_get_application_id Get the application ID. psz_app_id is set to undef if there is some problem in getting this and 0 is returned. get_preparer_id Return a string containing the preparer id with trailing blanks removed. ifs_get_preparer_id Get the preparer ID. psz_preparer_id is set to undef if there is some problem in getting this and 0 is returned. get_publisher_id Return a string containing the PVD's publisher id with trailing blanks removed. ifs_get_publisher_id Get the publisher ID. psz_publisher_id is set to undef if there is some problem in getting this and 0 is returned. get_pvd_type get_pvd_id get_pvd_space_size get_pvd_block_size get_pvd_version Return the primary volume id version number (of pvd). If there is an error 0 is returned. get_system_id Return a string containing the PVD's system id with trailing blanks removed. ifs_get_system_id Get the system ID. psz_system_id is set to undef if there is some problem in getting this and 0 is returned. get_root_lsn Return the LSN of the root directory for pvd. If there is an error CDIO_INVALID_LSN is returned. get_volume_id Return the PVD's volume ID. ifs_get_volume_id Get the system ID. psz_system_id is set to undef if there s some problem in getting this and 0 is returned. get_volumeset_id Return the PVD's volumeset ID. undef is returned if there is some problem in getting this. ifs_get_volumeset_id Get the systemset ID. psz_systemset_id is set to undef if there is some problem in getting this and 0 is returned. Path Table Routines iso9660_pathtable_init Zero out pathable. Do this first. pathtable_get_size pathtable_l_add_entry pathtable_m_add_entry set_evd Miscellaneous get_joliet_level Return the Joliet level recognized for p_iso. ifs_is_xa Return 1 if ISO 9660 image has extended attrributes (XA).
