* PhysicsFS; a portable, flexible file i/o abstraction.
*
* This API gives you access to a system file system in ways superior to the
* stdio or system i/o calls. The brief benefits:
*
* - It's portable.
* - It's safe. No file access is permitted outside the specified dirs.
* - It's flexible. Archives (.ZIP files) can be used transparently as
* directory structures.
*
* This system is largely inspired by Quake 3's PK3 files and the related
Jun 7, 2001

20
* fs_* cvars. If you've ever tinkered with these, then this API will be

* With PhysicsFS, you have a single writing directory and multiple
* directories (the "search path") for reading. You can think of this as a
* filesystem within a filesystem. If (on Windows) you were to set the
* writing directory to "C:\MyGame\MyWritingDirectory", then no PHYSFS calls
* could touch anything above this directory, including the "C:\MyGame" and
* "C:\" directories. This prevents an application's internal scripting

* language from piddling over c:\\config.sys, for example. If you'd rather

31
* give PHYSFS full access to the system's REAL file system, set the writing
* dir to "C:\", but that's generally A Bad Thing for several reasons.

* Not only does this lend itself well to general abstraction with archives,
* it also gives better support to operating systems like MacOS and Unix.
* Generally speaking, you shouldn't ever hardcode a drive letter; not only
* does this hurt portability to non-Microsoft OSes, but it limits your win32
* users to a single drive, too. Use the PhysicsFS abstraction functions and
* allow user-defined configuration options, too. When opening a file, you
* specify it like it was on a Unix filesystem: if you want to write to
Jul 5, 2001
Jul 5, 2001
42
* "C:\MyGame\MyConfigFiles\game.cfg", then you might set the write dir to
Jun 7, 2001
Jun 7, 2001
43
* "C:\MyGame" and then open "MyConfigFiles/game.cfg". This gives an
Jun 7, 2001

* abstraction across all platforms. Specifying a file in this way is termed

* "platform-independent notation" in this documentation. Specifying a
* a filename in a form such as "C:\mydir\myfile" or
* "MacOS hard drive:My Directory:My File" is termed "platform-dependent
* notation". The only time you use platform-dependent notation is when
* setting up your write directory and search path; after that, all file
* access into those directories are done with platform-independent notation.
*
* All files opened for writing are opened in relation to the write directory,
Jun 7, 2001
Jun 7, 2001
53
* which is the root of the writable filesystem. When opening a file for
Jul 5, 2001

54
* reading, PhysicsFS goes through the search path. This is NOT the

* same thing as the PATH environment variable. An application using

* directories, or archive files that contain files and subdirectories of
* their own. See the end of these docs for currently supported archive
* formats.

* Remember that most archive types and platform filesystems store their

* elements. Not only are these meaningless on MacOS Classic and/or Unix,
* they are a security hole. Also, symbolic links (which can be found in
* some archive types and directly in the filesystem on Unix platforms) are
* NOT followed until you call PHYSFS_permitSymbolicLinks(). That's left to
* your own discretion, as following a symlink can allow for access outside
* the write dir and search paths. For portability, there is no mechanism for
* creating new symlinks in PhysicsFS.

* The write dir is not included in the search path unless you specifically
* add it. While you CAN change the write dir as many times as you like,
* you should probably set it once and stick to it. Remember that your
* program will not have permission to write in every directory on Unix and
* NT systems.

* function to recommend a good search path, etc.

* A recommended order for the search path is the write dir, then the base dir,
* then the cdrom dir, then any archives discovered. Quake 3 does something
Jun 28, 2001
Jun 28, 2001
105
106
* like this, but moves the archives to the start of the search path. Build
* Engine games, like Duke Nukem 3D and Blood, place the archives last, and
Jul 5, 2001
Jul 5, 2001
107
108
* use the base dir for both searching and writing. There is a helper
* function (PHYSFS_setSaneConfig()) that puts together a basic configuration

* PhysicsFS 2.0 adds the concept of "mounting" archives to arbitrary points
* in the search path. If a zipfile contains "maps/level.map" and you mount
* that archive at "mods/mymod", then you would have to open
* "mods/mymod/maps/level.map" to access the file, even though "mods/mymod"
* isn't actually specified in the .zip file. Unlike the Unix mentality of
* mounting a filesystem, "mods/mymod" doesn't actually have to exist when
* mounting the zipfile. It's a "virtual" directory. The mounting mechanism
* allows the developer to seperate archives in the tree and avoid trampling
* over files when added new archives, such as including mod support in a
* game...keeping external content on a tight leash in this manner can be of
* utmost importance to some applications.

* PhysicsFS is mostly thread safe. The error messages returned by
* PHYSFS_getLastError are unique by thread, and library-state-setting
* functions are mutex'd. For efficiency, individual file accesses are
* not locked, so you can not safely read/write/seek/close/etc the same
* file from two threads at the same time. Other race conditions are bugs
* that should be reported/patched.

* PhysicsFS 1.0 could only deal with null-terminated ASCII strings. All high
* ASCII chars resulted in undefined behaviour, and there was no Unicode
* support at all. PhysicsFS 2.0 supports Unicode without breaking binary
* compatibility with the 1.0 API by using UTF-8 encoding of all strings
* passed in and out of the library.

* All strings passed through PhysicsFS are in null-terminated UTF-8 format.
* This means that if all you care about is English (ASCII characters <= 127)
* then you just use regular C strings. If you care about Unicode (and you
* should!) then you need to figure out what your platform wants, needs, and
* offers. If you are on Windows and build with Unicode support, your TCHAR
* strings are two bytes per character (this is called "UCS-2 encoding"). You
* should convert them to UTF-8 before handing them to PhysicsFS with

* CFString, and many Unixes generally give you C strings in UTF-8 format
* everywhere. If you have a single-byte high ASCII charset, like so-many
* European "codepages" you may be out of luck. We'll convert from "Latin1"
* to UTF-8 only, and never back to Latin1. If you're above ASCII 127, all
* bets are off: move to Unicode or use your platform's facilities. Passing a
* C string with high-ASCII data that isn't UTF-8 encoded will NOT do what

* data back into a format you like. Behind the scenes, PhysicsFS will use
* Unicode where possible: the UTF-8 strings on Windows will be converted

*
* PhysicsFS offers basic encoding conversion support, but not a whole string
* library. Get your stuff into whatever format you can work with.

* Some platforms and archivers don't offer full Unicode support behind the
* scenes. For example, OS/2 only offers "codepages" and the filesystem
* itself doesn't support multibyte encodings. We make an earnest effort to
* convert to/from the current locale here, but all bets are off if
* you want to hand an arbitrary Japanese character through to these systems.
* Modern OSes (Mac OS X, Linux, Windows, PocketPC, etc) should all be fine.
* Many game-specific archivers are seriously unprepared for Unicode (the
* Descent HOG/MVL and Build Engine GRP archivers, for example, only offer a
* DOS 8.3 filename, for example). Nothing can be done for these, but they
* tend to be legacy formats for existing content that was all ASCII (and
* thus, valid UTF-8) anyhow. Other formats, like .ZIP, don't explicitly
* offer Unicode support, but unofficially expect filenames to be UTF-8
* encoded, and thus Just Work. Most everything does the right thing without
* bothering you, but it's good to be aware of these nuances in case they
* don't.

* \fn const char *PHYSFS_getRealDir(const char *filename)
* \brief Figure out where in the search path a file resides.
*
* The file is specified in platform-independent notation. The returned
* filename will be the element of the search path where the file was found,
* which may be a directory, or an archive. Even if there are multiple
* matches in different parts of the search path, only the first one found
* is used, just like when opening a file.

* So, if you look for "maps/level1.map", and C:\\mygame is in your search
* path and C:\\mygame\\maps\\level1.map exists, then "C:\mygame" is returned.

* If a any part of a match is a symbolic link, and you've not explicitly
