The attribute is intended for simplifying package building. The
package's install path will be used for the package's .self package
symlink, allowing installation to a temporary directory when building
the package.
Add flags parameter to BPackageWriter::Init() (and the private
implementation classes) to indicate that an existing package file shall
be updated instead of created. Currently that always happens in-place.
When compression doesn't save space, using it nonetheless results in a
file that the reader complains about. So we fall back to writing an
uncompressed package attributes section in such a case.
The same still needs to be done for the TOC section.
* Add hooks HandleSectionStart() and HandleSectionEnd(). They are
invoked to bracket package file section, so the handler can
discriminate which section the attributes belong to.
HandleSectionStart() features a return parameter _handleSection, which
allows to handler to pick which sections it wants to handle.
* "package dump" does now print the section names.
If a FD is specified, instead of using the file with the given the FD is
used. Allows for adding entries without first copying them into the
directory structure.
To avoid a clash with the regular version or an extra attribute level we
use the "package:provides.compatible" package attribute instead of
"package:version.major".
handling:
* package attributes are now compatible with the low level attribute
handling of other HPKG attributes (such that 'package dump' now shows
package attributes, too)
* dropped type names from hpkg format, the attributes were identified
by IDs already and this simplifies the code considerably. Type names
are now handled in BLowLevelPackageHandler only.
* instead of rolling their own mechanism, high-level package attributes
handling is now implemented via a corresonding set of
AttributeHandler-subclasses
* adjusted package writer to only write package attributes that are
needed (empty ones are left out)

* actually write the checksum
* compress the repository info archive, too (handle it as separate
section)
git-svn-id: file:///srv/svn/repos/haiku/haiku/trunk@40426 a95241bf-73f2-0310-859d-f6bbb57e9c96
* typedef base classes as 'inherited' and use that instead of the
explicit base class name
* remove superfluous scopes in case blocks
git-svn-id: file:///srv/svn/repos/haiku/haiku/trunk@40420 a95241bf-73f2-0310-859d-f6bbb57e9c96
* fleshed out RepositoryWriterImpl
* renamed BRepositoryHeader to BRepositoryInfo (in accordance with
BPackageInfo)
* adjusted BRepositoryInfo to be able to parse itself from a
driver_settings file
* added package_repo binary (only 'create' works as of yet)
git-svn-id: file:///srv/svn/repos/haiku/haiku/trunk@40405 a95241bf-73f2-0310-859d-f6bbb57e9c96
to create a package that refers to a license that is not a system
license or contained in the package
* added package-info flags (currently only approve_license and
system_package)
* adjusted package-reader/writer and pkgman accordingly
git-svn-id: file:///srv/svn/repos/haiku/haiku/trunk@40393 a95241bf-73f2-0310-859d-f6bbb57e9c96
* PackageWriterImpl no longer accesses members of WriterImplBase
directly, but uses getters/setters instead
* package attribute registration has been moved from PackageWriterImpl
to WriterImplBase, as it will be used in the same manner by the
RepositoryWriter
git-svn-id: file:///srv/svn/repos/haiku/haiku/trunk@40388 a95241bf-73f2-0310-859d-f6bbb57e9c96
* pulled commonly useful parts out of PackageWriterImpl into
WriterImplBase
* moved CachedStringTable and related methods into a separate class,
StringCache, in order to support having more than one string cache
per package file
* made package attribute section use a string cache, too, as that's
going to be very useful for repositories
* instead of writing package attributes directly, we now collect
corresponding PackageAttributes and write those later
* adjusted package reader accordingly
git-svn-id: file:///srv/svn/repos/haiku/haiku/trunk@40376 a95241bf-73f2-0310-859d-f6bbb57e9c96
types and defines of HPKG
* added header, magic and version for haiku repository format
git-svn-id: file:///srv/svn/repos/haiku/haiku/trunk@40370 a95241bf-73f2-0310-859d-f6bbb57e9c96
section access into the SectionInfo structure, of which
PackageReaderImpl now keeps two instances and a pointer to the
current of these two
git-svn-id: file:///srv/svn/repos/haiku/haiku/trunk@40359 a95241bf-73f2-0310-859d-f6bbb57e9c96
* added kernel-compatible datatypes for reading package info attribute
values (PackageInfoAttributeValue.h) - these will be used at a later
stage by the package-fs to transport those attributes to userland
when asked to do so (by ioctl)
* implemented parsing of package info attributes in PackageReaderImpl
* added support for compressed package attribute section to
PackageReaderImpl
* completed the writing of package info attributes in PackageWriterImpl
and fixed a couple of bugs exposed by parsing
* adjusted 'package list' to show the package info attributes as they
are found
git-svn-id: file:///srv/svn/repos/haiku/haiku/trunk@40354 a95241bf-73f2-0310-859d-f6bbb57e9c96
but publish that info through a BPackageWriterListener
* adjusted 'package create' to print a package summary by default and
more verbose info upon request.
git-svn-id: file:///srv/svn/repos/haiku/haiku/trunk@40332 a95241bf-73f2-0310-859d-f6bbb57e9c96
* FDCloser is private, so it should live in BPackageKit::BHPKG::BPrivate
* adjusted 'package' binary to no longer use FDCloser (trivial)
* minor cleanup in command_extract.cpp
git-svn-id: file:///srv/svn/repos/haiku/haiku/trunk@40329 a95241bf-73f2-0310-859d-f6bbb57e9c96
* added my own copyright to a couple of files that I changed
git-svn-id: file:///srv/svn/repos/haiku/haiku/trunk@40321 a95241bf-73f2-0310-859d-f6bbb57e9c96
public and private API (still far from ideal, but a start):
* moved several HPKG-classes into the public namespace BPackageKit::HPKG
* added fImpl-wrappers around PackageReader and PackageWriter to hide
most of the gory details
* adjusted 'package'-binary and packagefs accordingly
git-svn-id: file:///srv/svn/repos/haiku/haiku/trunk@40320 a95241bf-73f2-0310-859d-f6bbb57e9c96
* added class BPackageInfo, which contains packaging attributes of
a package (the values relevant for package management)
* implemented parser (mostly) for reading a BPackageInfo from a config
file (.PackageInfo) in order to pass them on to the PackageWriter
when creating a package
* pulled hpkg-related stuff from bin/package into the package kit
* adjusted packagefs-Volume to skip .PackageInfo files when populating
the mountpoint, as those files shouldn't appear as part of an
activated package
git-svn-id: file:///srv/svn/repos/haiku/haiku/trunk@40301 a95241bf-73f2-0310-859d-f6bbb57e9c96
* rip BRepositoryHeader out of BRepositoryConfig and add support
for it to BRepositoryCache
* implement repository removal
* some minor cleanups
git-svn-id: file:///srv/svn/repos/haiku/haiku/trunk@40290 a95241bf-73f2-0310-859d-f6bbb57e9c96
* drop 'Haiku' namespace
* rename 'Package' namespace to 'BPackageKit'
* renamed all public classes to begin with a 'B'
* renamed BPackageKit::Roster to BPackageKit::BPackageRoster to not
clash with the BRoster from the application kit.
* fix some instances of public headers including private ones
Some functional changes, too:
* JobQueue now removes and deletes dependants of failed jobs
automatically
* JobQueue supports waiting for jobs to become runnable
* added a couple of InitCheck() methods where they make sense
and invoke those in users of these classes
