Detailed Description

A base class for a repository of python code objects.
    The extract method is used by imputil.ArchiveImporter
    to get code objects by name (fully qualified name), so
    an enduser "import a.b" would become
      extract('a.__init__')
      extract('a.b')

Constructor & Destructor Documentation

def __init__	(	self,
		path = `None`,
		start = `0`
	)

Reimplemented in ZlibArchive.

Member Function Documentation

def checkmagic ( self )

Sub-methods of __init__ - override as needed #############.

Overridable.
Check to see if the file object self.lib actually has a file
we understand.

Reimplemented in CArchive.

def contents ( self )

Informational methods.

Return a list of the contents
   Default implementation assumes self.toc is a dict like object.
   Not required by ArchiveImporter.

Reimplemented in CArchive.

def extract	(	self,
		name
	)

Core method - Override as needed #########.

Get the object corresponding to name, or None.
For use with imputil ArchiveImporter, object is a python code object.
'name' is the name as specified in an 'import name'.
'import a.b' will become:
extract('a') (return None because 'a' is not a code object)
extract('a.__init__') (return a code object)
extract('a.b') (return a code object)
Default implementation:
  self.toc is a dict
  self.toc[name] is pos
  self.lib has the code object marshal-ed at pos

Reimplemented in ZlibArchive, and CArchive.

def get_code	(	self,
		parent,
		modname,
		fqname
	)

This is what is called by FuncImporter ####### Since an Archive is flat, we ignore parent and modname.

def loadtoc ( self )

Overridable.
Default: After magic comes an int (4 byte native) giving the
position of the TOC within self.lib.
Default: The TOC is a marshal-able string.

Reimplemented in CArchive.
