109=head1 DESCRIPTION
110
111This module started as an interface to the uulib/uudeview library by Frank
112Pilhofer that can be used to decode all kinds of usenet (and other)
113binary messages.
114
115After upstream abondoned the project, the library was continuously bugfixed
116and improved in this module, with major focuses on security fixes,
117correctness and speed (that does not mean that this library is considered
118safe with untrusted data, but it surely is safer than the original
119uudeview).
120
121Read the file doc/library.pdf from the distribution for in-depth
122information about the C-library used in this interface, and the rest of
123this document and especially the non-trivial decoder program at the end.

211
212=head2 Initializing and cleanup
213
214Initialize is automatically called when the module is loaded and allocates
215quite a small amount of memory for todays machines ;) CleanUp releases that
216again.
217
218On my machine, a fairly complete decode with DBI backend needs about 10MB
219RSS to decode 20000 files.
220
221=over
222
223=item CleanUp
224
225Release memory, file items and clean up files. Should be called after a
226decoidng run, if you want to start a new one.

265
266=over
267
268=item ($retval, $count) = LoadFile $fname, [$id, [$delflag, [$partno]]]
269
270Load the given file and scan it for encoded contents. Optionally tag it
271with the given id, and if C<$delflag> is true, delete the file after it
272is no longer necessary. If you are certain of the part number, you can
273specify it as the last argument.
274
275A better (usually faster) way of doing this is using the C<SetFNameFilter>
276functionality.
277
278=item $retval = Smerge $pass
279
280If you are desperate, try to call C<Smerge> with increasing C<$pass>
281values, beginning at C<0>, to try to merge parts that usually would not
282have been merged.
283
284Most probably this will result in garbled files, so never do this by
285default, except:
286
287If the C<OPT_AUTOCHECK> option has been disabled (by default it is
288enabled) to speed up file loading, then you I<have> to call C<Smerge -1>
289after loading all files as an additional pre-pass (which is normally done
290by C<LoadFile>).
291
292=item $item = GetFileListItem $item_number
293
294Return the C<$item> structure for the C<$item_number>'th found file, or
295C<undef> of no file with that number exists.
296
297The first file has number C<0>, and the series has no holes, so you can
298iterate over all files by starting with zero and incrementing until you
299hit C<undef>.
300
301This function has to walk the linear list of fils on each access, so
302if you want to iterate over all items, it is usually faster to use
303C<GetFileList>.
304
305=item @items = GetFileList
306
307Similar to C<GetFileListItem>, but returns all files in one go, which is
308very much faster for large number of items, and has no drawbacks when used
309for a small number of items.

363

365
366=item $parts = $item->parts
367
368Return information about all parts (source files) used to decode the file
369as a list of hashrefs with the following structure:
370
371 {
372 partno => <integer describing the part number, starting with 1>,
373 # the following member sonly exist when they contain useful information
374 sfname => <local pathname of the file where this part is from>,
375 filename => <the ondisk filename of the decoded file>,
376 subfname => <used to cluster postings, possibly the posting filename>,
377 subject => <the subject of the posting/mail>,
378 origin => <the possible source (From) address>,
379 mimetype => <the possible mimetype of the decoded file>,
380 mimeid => <the id part of the Content-Type>,
381 }
382
383Usually you are interested mostly the C<sfname> and possibly the C<partno>
384and C<filename> members.

401
402=over
403
404=item $msg = straction ACT_xxx
405
406Return a human readable string representing the given action code.
407
408=item $msg = strerror RET_xxx
409
410Return a human readable string representing the given error code.
411
412=item $str = strencoding xxx_ENCODED
413
414Return the name of the encoding type as a string.
415
416=item $str = strmsglevel MSG_xxx
417
418Returns the message level as a string.
419
420=item SetFileNameCallback $cb
421
422Sets (or queries) the FileNameCallback, which is called whenever the
423decoding library can't find a filename and wants to extract a filename
424from the subject line of a posting. The callback will be called with
425two arguments, the subject line and the current candidate for the
426filename. The latter argument can be C<undef>, which means that no
427filename could be found (and likely no one exists, so it is safe to also
428return C<undef> in this case). If it doesn't return anything (not even
429C<undef>!), then nothing happens, so this is a no-op callback:
430
431 sub cb {
432 return ();
433 }
434
435If it returns C<undef>, then this indicates that no filename could be
436found. In all other cases, the return value is taken to be the filename.
437
438This is a slightly more useful callback:
439
440 sub cb {
441 return unless $_[1]; # skip "Re:"-plies et al.
442 my ($subject, $filename) = @_;
443 # if we find some *.rar, take it
444 return $1 if $subject =~ /(\w+\.rar)/;
445 # otherwise just pass what we have

199Action code constants: 587This module supports the perlmulticore standard (see
588L<http://perlmulticore.schmorp.de/> for more info) for the following
589functions - generally these are functions accessing the disk and/or using
590considerable CPU time:
200 591
201 ACT_COPYING ACT_DECODING ACT_ENCODING 592 LoadFile
202 ACT_IDLE ACT_SCANNING 593 $item->decode

207 FILE_NOBEGIN FILE_NODATA FILE_NOEND
208 FILE_OK FILE_READ FILE_TMPFILE

212 MSG_ERROR MSG_FATAL MSG_MESSAGE
213 MSG_NOTE MSG_PANIC MSG_WARNING

217 OPT_BRACKPOL OPT_DEBUG OPT_DESPERATE OPT_DUMBNESS
218 OPT_ENCEXT OPT_ERRNO OPT_FAST OPT_IGNMODE
219 OPT_IGNREPLY OPT_OVERWRITE OPT_PREAMB OPT_PROGRESS

234
235Initializing and cleanup (Initialize is automatically called when the
236module is loaded and allocates quite a bit of memory. CleanUp releases
237that again).
238
239 Initialize; # not normally necessary
240 CleanUp; # could be called at the end to release memory
241
242Setting and querying options:
243
244 $option = GetOption OPT_xxx;
245 SetOption OPT_xxx, opt-value;
246
247Error and action values => stringified:
248
249 $msg = straction ACT_xxx;
250 $msg = strerror RET_xxx;
251
252Setting various callbacks:
253
254 SetMsgCallback [callback-function];
255 SetBusyCallback [callback-function];
256 SetFileCallback [callback-function];
257 SetFNameFilter [callback-function];
258
259Call the currently selected FNameFilter:
260
261 $file = FNameFilter $file;
262
263Loading sourcefiles, optionally fuzzy merge and start decoding:
264
265 ($retval, $count) = LoadFile $fname, [$id, [$delflag]];
266 $retval = Smerge $pass;
267 $item = GetFileListItem $item_number;
268
269The procedural interface is undocumented, use the following methods instead:
270
271 $retval = $item->rename($newname);
272 $retval = $item->decode_temp; 594 $item->decode_temp
273 $retval = $item->remove_temp; 595 $item->remove_temp
274 $retval = $item->decode([$target_path]); 596 $item->info
275 $retval = $item->info(callback-function);
276 597
277Querying (and setting) item attributes: 598The perl interpreter will be reacquired/released on every callback
599invocation, so for performance reasons, callbacks should be avoided if
600that is costly.
278 601
279 $state = $item->state; 602Future versions might enable multicore support for more functions.
280 $mode = $item->mode([newmode]);
281 $uudet = $item->uudet;
282 $size = $item->size;
283 $filename = $item->filename([newfilename});
284 $subfname = $item->subfname;
285 $mimeid = $item->mimeid;
286 $mimetype = $item->mimetype;
287 $binfile = $item->binfile;

289Totally undocumented and unsupported(!): 604=head1 BUGS AND LIMITATIONS
290 605
291 $parts = $item->parts; 606The original uulib library this module uses was written at a time where
607main memory was measured in megabytes and buffer overflows as a security
608thing didn't exist. While a lot of security fixes have been applied over
609the years (including some defense in depth mechanism that can shield
610against a lot of as-of-yet undetected bugs), using this library for
611security purposes requires care.
292 612
293Functions below not documented and not very well tested: 613Likewise, file sizes when the uulib library was written were tiny compared
614to today, so do not expect this library to handle files larger than 2GB,
615certainly not on a 32 bit host.
294 616
295 int QuickDecode () ; 617Lastly, this module uses a very "C-like" interface, which means it doesn't
296 int EncodeMulti () ; 618protect you from invalid pointers as you might expect from "more perlish"
297 int EncodePartial () ; 619modules - for example, accessing a file item object after calling
298 int EncodeToStream () ; 620C<CleanUp> will likely result in crashes, memory corruption, or worse.
299 int EncodeToFile () ;
