107=head1 SMALL EXAMPLE DECODER
108
109The following code excerpt is a minimal decoder program. It reads all
110files given on the commandline and decodes any files in it.

113 102

104 # into the CURRENT directory. See below for a longer example.

205=head2 Initializing and cleanup
206
207Initialize is automatically called when the module is loaded and allocates
208quite a small amount of memory for todays machines ;) CleanUp releases that
209again.
210
211On my machine, a fairly complete decode with DBI backend needs about 10MB
212RSS to decode 20000 files.
213
214=over 4
215
216=item Initialize
217
218Not normally necessary, (re-)initializes the library.
219
220=item CleanUp
221
222Not normally necessary, could be called at the end to release memory
223before starting a new decoding round.

262
263=over 4
264
265=item ($retval, $count) = LoadFile $fname, [$id, [$delflag, [$partno]]]
266
267Load the given file and scan it for encoded contents. Optionally tag it
268with the given id, and if C<$delflag> is true, delete the file after it
269is no longer necessary. If you are certain of the part number, you can
270specify it as the last argument.
271
272A better (usually faster) way of doing this is using the C<SetFNameFilter>
273functionality.
274
275=item $retval = Smerge $pass
276
277If you are desperate, try to call C<Smerge> with increasing C<$pass>
278values, beginning at C<0>, to try to merge parts that usually would not
279have been merged.
280
281Most probably this will result in garbled files, so never do this by
282default.
283
284=item $item = GetFileListItem $item_number
285
286Return the C<$item> structure for the C<$item_number>'th found file, or
287C<undef> of no file with that number exists.
288
289The first file has number C<0>, and the series has no holes, so you can
290iterate over all files by starting with zero and incrementing until you
291hit C<undef>.

304
305Decode the file into a temporary location, use C<< $item->infile >> to
306retrieve the temporary filename.
307
308=item $retval = $item->remove_temp
309
310Remove the temporarily decoded file again.
311
312=item $retval = $item->decode([$target_path])
313
314Decode the file to it's destination, or the given target path.

344=head2 Information about source parts
345
346=over 4
347
348=item $parts = $item->parts
349
350Return information about all parts (source files) used to decode the file
351as a list of hashrefs with the following structure:
352
353 {
354 partno => <integer describing the part number, starting with 1>,
355 # the following member sonly exist when they contain useful information
356 sfname => <local pathname of the file where this part is from>,
357 filename => <the ondisk filename of the decoded file>,
358 subfname => <used to cluster postings, possibly the posting filename>,
359 subject => <the subject of the posting/mail>,
360 origin => <the possible source (From) address>,
361 mimetype => <the possible mimetype of the decoded file>,
362 mimeid => <the id part of the Content-Type>,
363 }
364
365Usually you are interested mostly the C<sfname> and possibly the C<partno>
366and C<filename> members.

383
384=over 4
385
386=item $msg = straction ACT_xxx
387
388Return a human readable string representing the given action code.
389
390=item $msg = strerror RET_xxx
391
392Return a human readable string representing the given error code.
393
394=item $str = strencoding xxx_ENCODED
395
396Return the name of the encoding type as a string.
397
398=item $str = strmsglevel MSG_xxx
399
400Returns the message level as a string.
401
402=item SetFileNameCallback $cb
403
404Sets (or queries) the FileNameCallback, which is called whenever the
405decoding library can't find a filename and wants to extract a filename
406from the subject line of a posting. The callback will be called with
407two arguments, the subject line and the current candidate for the
408filename. The latter argument can be C<undef>, which means that no
409filename could be found (and likely no one exists, so it is safe to also
410return C<undef> in this case). If it doesn't return anything (not even
411C<undef>!), then nothing happens, so this is a no-op callback:
412
413 sub cb {
414 return ();
415 }
416
417If it returns C<undef>, then this indicates that no filename could be
418found. In all other cases, the return value is taken to be the filename.
419
420This is a slightly more useful callback:
421
422 sub cb {
423 return unless $_[1]; # skip "Re:"-plies et al.
424 my ($subject, $filename) = @_;
425 # if we find some *.rar, take it
426 return $1 if $subject =~ /(\w+\.rar)/;
427 # otherwise just pass what we have

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;
273 $retval = $item->remove_temp;
274 $retval = $item->decode([$target_path]);
275 $retval = $item->info(callback-function);
276
277Querying (and setting) item attributes:
278
279 $state = $item->state;
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;
288
289Totally undocumented and unsupported(!):
290
291 $parts = $item->parts;
292
293Functions below not documented and not very well tested:
