ppsparse()

Parse an object read from PPS

Synopsis:

#include <ppsparse.h>extern pps_status_t ppsparse( char **ppsdata,                              const char * const *objnames,                              const char * const *attrnames,                              pps_attrib_t *info,                              int parse_flags );

Arguments:

ppsdata

A pointer to a pointer to the current position in the buffer of PPS data. The function updates this pointer as it parses the options; see the“Description” below.

objnames

A pointer to a NULL-terminated array of object names. If this value is notNULL,ppsparse() looks up any object name it finds and provides its index in thepps_attrib_t structure.

attrnames

A pointer to a NULL-terminated array of attribute names. If this value is notNULL,ppsparse() looks up any attribute name it finds and provides its index in thepps_attrib_t structure.

info

A pointer to the data structure pps_attrib_t, which carries detailed about a line of PPS data.

parse_flags

Reserved for future use.

Library:

libc.

Description:

The function ppsparse() parses the next line of a buffer of PPS data. This buffer must be terminated by a null (“\0” in C, or hexadecimal0x00).

The first time you call this function after reading PPS data, you should set ppsdata to reference the start of the buffer with the data. As it parses each line of data,ppsparse():

• places the information parsed from the buffer in the pps_attrib_t data structure
• updates the pointer to the next PPS line in the buffer

When it successfully completes parsing a line, ppsparse() returns the type of line parsed, or end of data; seepps_status_t below.

pps_attrib_t

typedef struct {    char *obj_name;    int  obj_index;    char *attr_name;    int  attr_index;    char *encoding;    char *value;    int  flags;    int  options;    int  option_mask;    int  quality;    char *line;    int  reserved[3];} pps_attrib_t;

The pps_attrib_t data structure carries parsed PPS object and attribute information. It includes the members described in the table below:

MemberTypeDescriptionobj_namecharA pointer to the name of the last PPS object encountered. ppsparse() sets this pointer only if it encounters a PPS object name. You should initialize this pointer before calling ppsparse().obj_indexintThe index for obj_name in the objnames array. It is set to -1 if the index is not found orobjnames isNULL. You should initialize this value before callingppsparse().attr_namecharA pointer to the name of the attribute from the line PPS data that ppsparse() just parsed. It is set toNULL if no attribute name was found.attr_indexintThe index for attrj_name in the attrnames array. It is set to -1 if the index is not found orattrnames isNULL.encodingcharA pointer to a string that indicates the encoding used for the PPS attribute. See“Attributes” in the chapter PPS Objects and Attributes.
This value is only relevant if the ppsparse() return value isPPS_ATTRIBUTE. Seepps_status_t below.valuecharA pointer to the value of a PPS attribute.
This value is only relevant if the ppsparse() return value isPPS_ATTRIBUTE. Seepps_status_t below.flagsintFlags indicating that parsing has found a PPS special character prefixed to a line, or that the line is incomplete. Seepps_attrib_flags_t below.optionsintIndicates which non-negated options are prefixed in square brackets to a line. See“Object and attribute options” in the chapter Options.option_maskintA mask of the options (both negated and non-negated) prefixed to a line. See pps_options_t below.qualityintNot used.linecharPointer to the beginning of the line parsed by ppsparse(), for use in case of a parsing error.reserved[3]intFor internal use.

pps_attrib_flags_t

The enumerated values PPS_* defined by pps_attrib_flags_t define the possible states for PPS objects and attributes. These states include:

• PPS_INCOMPLETE — the object or attribute line is incomplete
• PPS_DELETED — the object or attribute has been deleted
• PPS_CREATED — the object has been created
• PPS_TRUNCATED — the object or attribute has been truncated
• PPS_PURGED — a critical publisher has closed its connection and all non-persistent attributes have been deleted; see“Critical option” in the chapter Options.

See also “Change notification” in the chapter PPS Objects.

pps_options_t

The enumerated values PPS_NOPERSIST defined by pps_options_t define values for PPS options:

• PPS_NOPERSIST — no-persistence option
• PPS_ITEM — item option

pps_status_t

The enumerated values PPS_* defined by pps_status_t define the possible ppsparse() return values. These values include:

• PPS_ERROR — the line of PPS data is invalid
• PPS_END — end of data, or incomplete line
• PPS_OBJECT — data for the given object follows
• PPS_OBJECT_CREATED — an object has been created
• PPS_OBJECT_DELETED — an object has been deleted
• PPS_OBJECT_TRUNCATED — an object has been truncated (all attributes were removed)
• PPS_ATTRIBUTE — and attribute has been updated
• PPS_ATTRIBUTE_DELETED — an attribute has been deleted

Returns:

The ppsparse() function returns:

≥0

Success.

-1

An error occured (errno is set).
