Patchfile

Inheritance:

Methods of Patchfile:

Patchfile
Patchfile::Patchfile(void);

Description: Create a patch file and initializes internal data
Description: Create patch file with buffer to patch

apply
bool Patchfile::apply(Filename &patch_file, Filename &file);

Description: Patches the entire file in one call returns true on success and false on error

build
bool Patchfile::build(Filename file_orig, Filename file_new, Filename patch_name);

Description: This implementation uses the "greedy differencing algorithm" described in the masters thesis "Differential Compression: A Generalized Solution for Binary Files" by Randal C. Burns (p.13). For an original file of size M and a new file of size N, this algorithm is O(M) in space and O(M*N) (worst-case) in time. return false on error

getAllowMultifile
bool Patchfile::get_allow_multifile(void);

Description:

getFootprintLength
int Patchfile::get_footprint_length(void);

Description:

getProgress
float Patchfile::get_progress(void) const;

#include "config_downloader.h"
Description:

getResultHash
HashVal const &Patchfile::get_result_hash(void) const;

Description: Returns the MD5 hash for the file after the patch has been applied.

getSourceHash
HashVal const &Patchfile::get_source_hash(void) const;

Description: Returns the MD5 hash for the source file.

hasSourceHash
bool Patchfile::has_source_hash(void) const;

Description: Returns true if the MD5 hash for the source file is known. (Some early versions of the patch file did not store this information.)

initiate
int Patchfile::initiate(Filename const &patch_file, Filename const &file);

PATCH FILE APPLY MEMBER FUNCTIONS
NOTE: this patch-application functionality unfortunately has to be duplicated in the Installer. It is contained in the file installerApplyPatch.cxx PLEASE MAKE SURE THAT THAT FILE GETS UPDATED IF ANY OF THIS LOGIC CHANGES! (i.e. if the patch file format changes)
Description: Set up to apply the patch to the file (original file and patch are destroyed in the process).

readHeader
int Patchfile::read_header(Filename const &patch_file);

Description: Opens the patch file for reading, and gets the header information from the file but does not begin to do any real work. This can be used to query the data stored in the patch.

resetFootprintLength
void Patchfile::reset_footprint_length(void);

Description:

run
int Patchfile::run(void);

Description: Perform one buffer's worth of patching Returns EU_ok while patching Returns EU_success when done If error happens will return one of: EU_error_abort : Patching has not been initiated EU_error_file_invalid : file is corrupted EU_error_invalid_checksum : incompatible patch file EU_error_write_file_rename : could not rename file

setAllowMultifile
void Patchfile::set_allow_multifile(bool allow_multifile);

Description: If this flag is set true, the Patchfile will make a special case for patching Panda Multifiles, if detected, and attempt to patch them on a subfile-by-subfile basis. If this flag is false, the Patchfile will always patch the file on a full-file basis.

setFootprintLength
void Patchfile::set_footprint_length(int length);

Description:
