NAME
D64::Disk::Image::File - File I/O portion of Perl interface to Per Olofsson's "diskimage.c", an ANSI C library for manipulating Commodore disk images
SYNOPSIS
use D64::Disk::Image qw(:all);
# Load an image from disk:
my $d64 = D64::Disk::Image->load_image('disk.d64');
# Write data to file:
my $rawname = $d64->rawname_from_name('testfile');
my $prg = $d64->open($rawname, T_PRG, F_WRITE);
my $counter = $prg->write($buffer);
$prg->close();
# Read data from file:
my $rawname = $d64->rawname_from_name('testfile');
my $prg = $d64->open($rawname, T_PRG, F_READ);
my ($counter, $buffer) = $prg->read();
$prg->close();
# Write the image to disk:
$d64->free_image();DESCRIPTION
Per Olofsson's "diskimage.c" is an ANSI C library for manipulating Commodore disk images. In Perl the following operations are implemented via D64::Disk::Image::File package:
Open file ('$' reads directory)
Read file
Write file
Close file
METHODS
new
Create new D64::Disk::Image::File object and open file on a disk image:
my $imageFile = D64::Disk::Image::File->new($diskImage, $rawname, $fileType, $mode);
my $imageFile = D64::Disk::Image::File->open($diskImage, $rawname, $fileType, $mode);Opens a file for reading or writing. Mode should be either F_READ (for reading) or F_WRITE (for writing). If '$' is given instead of the raw filename, the directory will be read. Consult D64::Disk::Image module documentation for the list of available file types. All parameters are mandatory.
close
Close a file (each opened file needs to be subsequently closed to avoid memory leaks):
$imageFile->close();read
Read data from file opened in F_READ mode:
my ($counter, $buffer) = $imageFile->read($maxlength);Reads $maxlength bytes of data into the buffer. Returns the number of bytes actually read, and the buffer with succeeding bytes of data.
write
Write data to file opened in F_WRITE mode:
my $counter = $imageFile->write($buffer, $length);Writes $length bytes of data from the $buffer. Returns the number of bytes actually written.
BUGS
There are no known bugs at the moment. Please report any bugs or feature requests.
EXPORT
D64::Disk::Image::File exports nothing by default.
You may request the import of open mode constants (F_READ, and F_WRITE). Both these constants can be explicitly imported from D64::Disk::Image::File by using it with ":modes" tag. All constants can be explicitly imported from D64::Disk::Image::File by using it with ":all" tag.
