Enumeration Type Documentation

File storage type.

The file storage type. Only used internally for now, but might be exposed later on. See gp_file_new() and gp_file_new_from_fd().

Enumerator
GP_FILE_ACCESSTYPE_MEMORY 

File is in system memory.

GP_FILE_ACCESSTYPE_FD 

File is associated with a UNIX filedescriptor.

GP_FILE_ACCESSTYPE_HANDLER 

File is associated with a programmatic handler.

The type of view on the specified file.

Specifies the file of the current file, usually passed to the gp_camera_file_get() and gp_camera_file_put() functions. This is useful for multiple views of one file, like that an single image file has "raw", "normal", "exif" and "preview" views, or a media file has "normal" and "metadata" file views.

Enumerator
GP_FILE_TYPE_PREVIEW 

A preview of an image.

GP_FILE_TYPE_NORMAL 

The regular normal data of a file.

GP_FILE_TYPE_RAW 

The raw mode of a file, for instance the raw bayer data for cameras where postprocessing is done in the driver. The RAW files of modern DSLRs are GP_FILE_TYPE_NORMAL usually.

GP_FILE_TYPE_AUDIO 

The audio view of a file. Perhaps an embedded comment or similar.

GP_FILE_TYPE_EXIF 

The embedded EXIF data of an image.

GP_FILE_TYPE_METADATA 

The metadata of a file, like Metadata of files on MTP devices.

Function Documentation

Returns
a gphoto2 error code.

int gp_file_append ( CameraFile file,
const char *  data,

int gp_file_copy ( CameraFile destination,
CameraFile source 
)
int gp_file_detect_mime_type ( CameraFile file)
Parameters
filea CameraFile
Returns
a gphoto2 error code.

References GP_ERROR_IO_READ, GP_FILE_ACCESSTYPE_FD, GP_FILE_ACCESSTYPE_MEMORY, gp_file_set_mime_type(), and GP_OK.

int gp_file_free ( CameraFile file)

descruct a CameraFile object.

Parameters
filea CameraFile
Returns
a gphoto2 error code.

References GP_FILE_ACCESSTYPE_FD, gp_file_clean(), and GP_OK.

Referenced by gp_file_unref().

int gp_file_get_data_and_size ( CameraFile file,
const char **  data,
unsigned long int *  size 
)

Get a pointer to the data and the file's size.

Parameters
filea CameraFile
data
size
Returns
a gphoto2 error code.

Both data and size can be NULL and will then be ignored.

The pointer to data that is returned is still owned by libgphoto2 and its lifetime is the same as the #file.

int gp_file_get_mime_type ( CameraFile file,
const char **  mime_type 
)
Parameters
filea CameraFile
mime_typea pointer to a MIME type string
Returns
a gphoto2 error code.

References GP_OK.

int gp_file_get_mtime ( CameraFile file,
time_t *  mtime 
)
Parameters
filea CameraFile
mtime
Returns
a gphoto2 error code.

References GP_OK.

Referenced by gp_filesystem_set_file_noop().

int gp_file_get_name ( CameraFile file,
const char **  name 
)
Parameters
filea CameraFile
namea pointer to a name string
Returns
a gphoto2 error code.

References GP_OK.

int gp_file_get_name_by_type ( CameraFile file,
const char *  basename,
CameraFileType  type,
char **  newname 
)
Parameters
filea CameraFile
basenamethe basename of the file
typethe gphoto type of the file
newnamethe new name generated
Returns
a gphoto2 error code.

This function takes the basename and generates a filename out of it depending on the gphoto filetype and the mime type in the file. The gphoto filetype will be converted to a prefix, like thumb_ or raw_, the mimetype will replace the current suffix by a different one (if necessary).

This can be used so that saving thumbnails or metadata will not overwrite the normal files.
