|
.Sh DESCRIPTION
|
|
The
|
|
.Fn unvis ,
|
|
.Fn strunvis
|
|
and
|
|
.Fn strunvisx
|
|
functions
|
|
are used to decode a visual representation of characters, as produced
|
|
by the
|
|
.Xr vis 3
|
|
function, back into
|
|
the original form.
|
|
.Pp
|
|
The
|
|
.Fn unvis
|
|
function is called with successive characters in
|
|
.Ar c
|
|
until a valid sequence is recognized, at which time the decoded
|
|
character is available at the character pointed to by
|
|
.Ar cp .
|
|
.Pp
|
|
The
|
|
.Fn strunvis
|
|
function decodes the characters pointed to by
|
|
.Ar src
|
|
into the buffer pointed to by
|
|
.Ar dst .
|
|
The
|
|
.Fn strunvis
|
|
function simply copies
|
|
.Ar src
|
|
to
|
|
.Ar dst ,
|
|
decoding any escape sequences along the way,
|
|
and returns the number of characters placed into
|
|
.Ar dst ,
|
|
or \-1 if an
|
|
invalid escape sequence was detected.
|
|
The size of
|
|
.Ar dst
|
|
should be equal to the size of
|
|
.Ar src
|
|
(that is, no expansion takes place during decoding).
|
|
.Pp
|
|
The
|
|
.Fn strunvisx
|
|
function does the same as the
|
|
.Fn strunvis
|
|
function,
|
|
but it allows you to add a flag that specifies the style the string
|
|
.Ar src
|
|
is encoded with.
|
|
Currently, the only supported flag is
|
|
.Dv VIS_HTTPSTYLE .
|
|
.Pp
|
|
The
|
|
.Fn unvis
|
|
function implements a state machine that can be used to decode an
|
|
arbitrary stream of bytes.
|
|
All state associated with the bytes being decoded is stored outside the
|
|
.Fn unvis
|
|
function (that is, a pointer to the state is passed in), so
|
|
calls decoding different streams can be freely intermixed.
|
|
To start decoding a stream of bytes, first initialize an integer to zero.
|
|
Call
|
|
.Fn unvis
|
|
with each successive byte, along with a pointer
|
|
to this integer, and a pointer to a destination character.
|
|
The
|
|
.Fn unvis
|
|
function has several return codes that must be handled properly.
|
|
They are:
|
|
.Bl -tag -width UNVIS_VALIDPUSH
|
|
.It Li \&0 (zero)
|
|
Another character is necessary; nothing has been recognized yet.
|
|
.It Dv UNVIS_VALID
|
|
A valid character has been recognized and is available at the location
|
|
pointed to by cp.
|
|
.It Dv UNVIS_VALIDPUSH
|
|
A valid character has been recognized and is available at the location
|
|
pointed to by cp; however, the character currently passed in should
|
|
be passed in again.
|
|
.It Dv UNVIS_NOCHAR
|
|
A valid sequence was detected, but no character was produced.
|
|
This return code is necessary to indicate a logical break between characters.
|
|
.It Dv UNVIS_SYNBAD
|
|
An invalid escape sequence was detected, or the decoder is in an unknown state.
|
|
The decoder is placed into the starting state.
|
|
.El
|
|
.Pp
|
|
When all bytes in the stream have been processed, call
|
|
.Fn unvis
|
|
one more time with flag set to
|
|
.Dv UNVIS_END
|
|
to extract any remaining character (the character passed in is ignored).
|
|
.Pp
|
|
The
|
|
.Ar flag
|
|
argument is also used to specify the encoding style of the source.
|
|
If set to
|
|
.Dv VIS_HTTPSTYLE ,
|
|
.Fn unvis
|
|
will decode URI strings as specified in RFC 1808.
|
|
.Pp
|
|
The following code fragment illustrates a proper use of
|
|
.Fn unvis .
|
|
.Bd -literal -offset indent
|
|
int state = 0;
|
|
char out;
|
|
|
|
while ((ch = getchar()) != EOF) {
|
|
again:
|
|
switch(unvis(\*[Am]out, ch, \*[Am]state, 0)) {
|
|
case 0:
|
|
case UNVIS_NOCHAR:
|
|
break;
|
|
case UNVIS_VALID:
|
|
(void) putchar(out);
|
|
break;
|
|
case UNVIS_VALIDPUSH:
|
|
(void) putchar(out);
|
|
goto again;
|
|
case UNVIS_SYNBAD:
|
|
(void)fprintf(stderr, "bad sequence!\n");
|
|
exit(1);
|
|
}
|
|
}
|
|
if (unvis(\*[Am]out, (char)0, \*[Am]state, UNVIS_END) == UNVIS_VALID)
|
|
(void) putchar(out);
