# File Format
|
|
|
|
Note that any unused bytes/bits should be zeroed-out before being written.
|
|
|
|
## Format Version 0
|
|
|
|
File extension is "*.simplearchive"
|
|
|
|
First 18 bytes of file will be:
|
|
|
|
SIMPLE_ARCHIVE_VER
|
|
|
|
Next 2 bytes is 16-bit unsigned integer "version" in big-endian. In this case,
|
|
it will be zero.
|
|
|
|
Next 4 bytes are bit-flags.
|
|
|
|
1. The first byte
|
|
1. The first bit is set if de/compressor is set for this archive.
|
|
|
|
The remaining unused flags are reserved for future revisions and are currently
|
|
ignored.
|
|
|
|
If the previous "de/compressor is set" flag is enabled, then the next section is
|
|
added:
|
|
|
|
1. 2 bytes is 16-bit unsigned integer "compressor cmd+args" in big-endian. This
|
|
does not include the NULL at the end of the string.
|
|
2. X bytes of "compressor cmd+args" (length defined by previous value). Is a
|
|
NULL-terminated string.
|
|
3. 2 bytes is 16-bit unsigned integer "decompressor cmd+args" in big-endian.
|
|
This does not include the NULL at the end of the string.
|
|
4. X bytes of "decompressor cmd+args" (length defined by previous value). Is a
|
|
NULL-terminated string.
|
|
|
|
The next 4 bytes is 32-bit unsigned integer "file count" in big-endian which
|
|
will indicate the number of files in this archive.
|
|
|
|
Following the file-count bytes, the following bytes are added for each file:
|
|
|
|
1. 2 bytes is 16-bit unsigned integer "filename length" in big-endian. This does
|
|
not include the NULL at the end of the string.
|
|
2. X bytes of filename (length defined by previous value). Is a NULL-terminated
|
|
string.
|
|
3. 4 bytes bit-flags
|
|
1. The first byte
|
|
1. The first bit is set if the file is a symbolic link.
|
|
2. The second byte.
|
|
1. Currently unused.
|
|
3. The third byte.
|
|
1. Currently unused.
|
|
4. The fourth byte.
|
|
1. Currently unused.
|
|
4. If this file is a symbolic link:
|
|
1. 2 bytes is 16-bit unsigned integer "link target absolute path" in
|
|
big-endian. This does not include the NULL at the end of the string.
|
|
2. X bytes of link-target-absolute-path (length defined by previous value).
|
|
Is a NULL-terminated string. If the previous "size" value is 0, then
|
|
this entry does not exist and should be skipped.
|
|
3. 2 bytes is 16-bit unsigned integer "link target relative path" in
|
|
big-endian. This does not include the NULL at the end of the string.
|
|
4. X bytes of link-target-relative-path (length defined by previous value).
|
|
Is a NULL-terminated string. If the previous "size" value is 0, then
|
|
this entry does not exist and should be skipped.
|
|
5. If this file is NOT a symbolic link:
|
|
1. 8 bytes 64-bit unsigned integer "size of filename in this archive file"
|
|
in big-endian.
|
|
2. X bytes file data (length defined by previous value).
