metalink_parse_final: Parse Metalink file and create metalink_t object.

NAME

metalink_parse_update, metalink_parse_final, metalink_parser_context_new, metalink_parse_context_delete - Parse Metalink file and create metalink_t object.

SYNOPSIS

#include <metalink/metalink_parser.h>

metalink_error_t metalink_parse_update(metalink_parser_context_t *ctx,                     const char *buf, size_t len);
metalink_error_t metalink_parse_final(metalink_parser_context_t *ctx,                      const char *buf, size_t len, metalink_t **res);

metalink_parser_context_t* metalink_parser_context_new();
void metalink_parser_context_delete(metalink_parser_context_t *ctx);

DESCRIPTION

These functions privide a push interface for parsing Metalink XML files.

Before calling metalink_parse_update() and metalink_parse_final(), metalink_parse_context_t has to be created by metalink_parser_context_new().

In each call of metalink_parse_update(), len bytes of buf are processed. At the last piece of data, call metalink_parse_final() to get metalink_t(3) structure as a result. Giving 0 as len is permitted.

metalink_parse_final() calls metalink_parser_context_delete() internally to deallocate the memory for passed metalink_parser_context_t. Therefore you don't have to call metlaink_parser_context_delete() if you call metalink_parse_final(). Otherwise call metalink_parser_context_delete() to free the allocated resource.

You don't have to allocate memory for metalink_t(3) structure. metalink_parse_final() take the pointer of metalink_t(3) pointer and allocate memory for that pointer.

The caller must free the memory allocated for metalink_t(3) structure using metalink_delete(3) if it is no longer used.

RETURN VALUE

metalink_parse_update(), metalink_parse_final() return 0 for success. When error occurred, non-zero value error code is returned. If error occurred, metalink_parse_final() does not allocate memory for metalink_t. The error codes are described in metalink_error.h.

In case of success, metalink_parser_context_new() allocates memory for metalink_parser_context_t() and returns the pointer to it. In case of failure, metalink_parser_context_new() returns NULL.

metalink_parser_context_delete() returns no value.
