223FUTURE DIRECTION: the motivation behind this option is to avoid I<real>
224cycles - future versions of this module might chose to decode cyclic data
225structures using weak references when this option is off, instead of
226throwing an error.

343=head2 INCREMENTAL PARSING
344
345In some cases, there is the need for incremental parsing of JSON
346texts. While this module always has to keep both CBOR text and resulting
347Perl data structure in memory at one time, it does allow you to parse a
348CBOR stream incrementally, using a similar to using "decode_prefix" to see
349if a full CBOR object is available, but is much more efficient.
350
351It basically works by parsing as much of a CBOR string as possible - if
352the CBOR data is not complete yet, the pasrer will remember where it was,
353to be able to restart when more data has been accumulated. Once enough
354data is available to either decode a complete CBOR value or raise an
355error, a real decode will be attempted.
356
357A typical use case would be a network protocol that consists of sending
358and receiving CBOR-encoded messages. The solution that works with CBOR and
359about anything else is by prepending a length to every CBOR value, so the
360receiver knows how many octets to read. More compact (and slightly slower)
361would be to just send CBOR values back-to-back, as C<CBOR::XS> knows where
362a CBOR value ends, and doesn't need an explicit length.
363
364The following methods help with this:
365
366=over 4
367
368=item @decoded = $cbor->incr_parse ($buffer)
369
370This method attempts to decode exactly one CBOR value from the beginning
371of the given C<$buffer>. The value is removed from the C<$buffer> on
372success. When C<$buffer> doesn't contain a complete value yet, it returns
373nothing. Finally, when the C<$buffer> doesn't start with something
374that could ever be a valid CBOR value, it raises an exception, just as
375C<decode> would. In the latter case the decoder state is undefined and
376must be reset before being able to parse further.
377
378This method modifies the C<$buffer> in place. When no CBOR value can be
379decoded, the decoder stores the current string offset. On the next call,
380continues decoding at the place where it stopped before. For this to make
381sense, the C<$buffer> must begin with the same octets as on previous
382unsuccessful calls.
383
384You can call this method in scalar context, in which case it either
385returns a decoded value or C<undef>. This makes it impossible to
386distinguish between CBOR null values (which decode to C<undef>) and an
387unsuccessful decode, which is often acceptable.
388
389=item @decoded = $cbor->incr_parse_multiple ($buffer)
390
391Same as C<incr_parse>, but attempts to decode as many CBOR values as
392possible in one go, instead of at most one. Calls to C<incr_parse> and
393C<incr_parse_multiple> can be interleaved.
394
395=item $cbor->incr_reset
396
397Resets the incremental decoder. This throws away any saved state, so that
398subsequent calls to C<incr_parse> or C<incr_parse_multiple> start to parse
399a new CBOR value from the beginning of the C<$buffer> again.
400
401This method can be caled at any time, but it I<must> be called if you want
402to change your C<$buffer> or there was a decoding error and you want to
403reuse the C<$cbor> object for future incremental parsings.
