.IX Header "Description"
\&\f(CW\*(C`APR::PerlIO\*(C'\fR implements a Perl \s-1IO\s0 layer using \s-1APR\s0's file
manipulation \s-1API\s0 internally.
.PP
Why do you want to use this? Normally you shouldn't, probably it won't
be faster than Perl's default layer. It's only useful when you need to
manipulate a filehandle opened at the \s-1APR\s0 side, while using Perl.
.PP
Normally you won't call \fIopen()\fR with \s-1APR\s0 layer attribute, but some
mod_perl functions will return a filehandle which is internally hooked
to \s-1APR\s0. But you can use \s-1APR\s0 Perl \s-1IO\s0 directly if you want.
.SH "Prerequisites"
.IX Header "Prerequisites"
Not every Perl will have full \f(CW\*(C`APR::PerlIO\*(C'\fR functionality available.
.PP
Before using the Perl \s-1IO\s0 \s-1APR\s0 layer one has to check whether it's
supported by the used APR/Perl build. Perl 5.8.x or higher with perlio
enabled is required. You can check whether your Perl fits the bill by
running:
.PP
.Vb 2
\& % perl \-V:useperlio
\& useperlio=\*(Aqdefine\*(Aq;
.Ve
.PP
It should say \fIdefine\fR.
.PP
If you need to do the checking in the code, there is a special
constant provided by \f(CW\*(C`APR::PerlIO\*(C'\fR, which can be used as follows:
.PP
.Vb 3
\& use APR::PerlIO ();
\& die "This Perl build doesn\*(Aqt support PerlIO layers"
\& unless APR::PerlIO::PERLIO_LAYERS_ARE_ENABLED;
.Ve
.PP
Notice that loading \f(CW\*(C`APR::PerlIO\*(C'\fR won't fail when Perl \s-1IO\s0 layers
aren't available since \f(CW\*(C`APR::PerlIO\*(C'\fR provides functionality for Perl
builds not supporting Perl \s-1IO\s0 layers.

See Prerequisites.
.SH "API"
.IX Header "API"
Most of the \s-1API\s0 is as in normal perl \s-1IO\s0 with a few nuances listed in
the following sections.
.PP
\&\s-1META:\s0 need to rework the exception mechanism here. Current success in
using errno ($!) being set (e.g. on \fIopen()\fR) is purely accidental and
not guaranteed across all platforms and functions. So don't rely on
$!. Will use \f(CW\*(C`APR::Error\*(C'\fR for that
purpose.
.ie n .SS """open"""
.el .SS "\f(CWopen\fP"
.IX Subsection "open"
Open a file via \s-1APR\s0 Perl \s-1IO\s0 layer.

The filehandle.
.ie n .IP "arg2: $mode ( string )" 4
.el .IP "arg2: \f(CW$mode\fR ( string )" 4
.IX Item "arg2: $mode ( string )"
The mode to open the file, constructed from two sections separated by
the \f(CW\*(C`:\*(C'\fR character: the first section is the mode to open the file
under (>, <, etc) and the second section must be a string
\&\fI\s-1APR\s0\fR. For more information refer to the \fIopen\fR entry in the
\&\fIperlfunc\fR manpage.
.ie n .IP "arg3: $filename ( string )" 4

.ie n .IP "arg4: $p ( ""APR::Pool"" )" 4

.IX Item "arg4: $p ( APR::Pool )"
The pool object to use to allocate APR::PerlIO layer.
.IP "ret: ( integer )" 4
.IX Item "ret: ( integer )"
success or failure value (boolean).
.IP "since: 2.0.00" 4
.IX Item "since: 2.0.00"
.ie n .SS """seek"""
.el .SS "\f(CWseek\fP"
.IX Subsection "seek"
Sets \f(CW$fh\fR's position, just like the \f(CW\*(C`seek()\*(C'\fR Perl call:
.PP
.Vb 1
\& seek($fh, $offset, $whence);
.Ve
.PP
If \f(CW$offset\fR is zero, \f(CW\*(C`seek()\*(C'\fR works normally.
.PP
However if \f(CW$offset\fR is non-zero and Perl has been compiled with with
large files support (\f(CW\*(C`\-Duselargefiles\*(C'\fR), whereas \s-1APR\s0 wasn't, this
function will croak. This is because largefile size \f(CW\*(C`Off_t\*(C'\fR simply
cannot fit into a non-largefile size \f(CW\*(C`apr_off_t\*(C'\fR.
.PP
To solve the problem, rebuild Perl with \f(CW\*(C`\-Uuselargefiles\*(C'\fR. Currently
there is no way to force \s-1APR\s0 to build with large files support.
