1 /** \file mp4.h Public API of the mp4 parser. */
4 * Callbacks provided by the user of the mp4 parsing API.
6 * A pointer to this structure is passed to the two public open functions. If
7 * the file is opened in read-only mode, the ->write() and ->truncate() methods
8 * won't be called and may thus be NULL. The ->read() and ->seek() methods
9 * must be supplied for either open type.
11 * All methods are supposed to work like their corresponding system calls.
12 * That is, they should return non-negative for success and -1 on failure. In
13 * the error case errno is expected to be set accordingly.
15 * \sa \ref mp4_open(), \ref mp4_open_meta().
18 /** This pointer is propagated to each call of all methods. */
21 * This should return the number of bytes read on success. Short reads
22 * are OK: the function may return less than length.
24 ssize_t (*read)(void *user_data, void *buffer, size_t length);
26 * This method is assumed to succeed. The implementation should simply
27 * abort on errors. Note that offsets beyond EOF must not be regarded
28 * as invalid arguments.
30 off_t (*seek)(void *user_data, off_t offset, int whence);
32 * Like the write() system call, this should return the number of bytes
33 * written. Short writes are OK: the function may return less than
36 ssize_t (*write)(void *user_data, void *buffer, size_t count);
38 * Unlike the truncate system call, this function does not receive an
39 * offset. The method is expected to truncate the file to the offset
40 * given by the current file position instead.
42 int (*truncate)(void *user_data);
45 /** Specifies one metadata tag. Both fields are 0-terminated strings. */
47 /** The item name: "artist", "title", "album", "comment", or "date". */
49 /** An arbitrary string value. */
54 * An array of name/value pairs.
56 * This structure is initialized when the mp4 file is opened in either mode.
57 * If the file contains metadata items other than the standard five, those
58 * non-standard items are not included in the array. After a successful open, a
59 * pointer to the metadata structure can be obtained via \ref mp4_get_meta().
62 /** It's OK to change this, for example by calling realloc(). */
64 /** The number of entries of the array. */
69 * The mp4 file handle.
71 * A pointer to this opaque structure is returned by the two open functions.
72 * All other functions of the mp4 API receive a pointer of this type.
