   @section eet_main_intro Introduction

   It is a tiny library designed to write an arbitrary set of chunks of data
   to a file and optionally compress each chunk (very much like a zip file)
   and allow fast random-access reading of the file later on. It does not
   do zip as a zip itself has more complexity than is needed, and it was much
   simpler to implement this once here.

   Eet is extremely fast, small and simple. Eet files can be very small and
   highly compressed, making them very optimal for just sending across the
   internet without having to archive, compress or decompress and install them.
   They allow for lightning-fast random-access reads once created, making them
   perfect for storing data that is written once (or rarely) and read many
   times, but the program does not want to have to read it all in at once.

   It also can encode and decode data structures in memory, as well as image
   data for saving to Eet files or sending across the network to other
   machines, or just writing to arbitrary files on the system. All data is
   encoded in a platform independent way and can be written and read by any
   architecture.

   @section eet_main_compiling How to compile

   Eet is a library your application links to. The procedure for this is very
   simple. You simply have to compile your application with the appropriate
   compiler flags that the @p pkg-config script outputs. For example:

   Compiling C or C++ files into object files:

   @verbatim
   gcc -c -o main.o main.c `pkg-config --cflags eet`
   @endverbatim

   Linking object files into a binary executable:

   @verbatim
   gcc -o my_application main.o `pkg-config --libs eet`
   @endverbatim

   See @ref pkgconfig

   @section eet_main_next_steps Next Steps

   After you understood what Eet is and installed it in your system
   you should proceed understanding the programming interface. We'd
   recommend you to take a while to learn @ref Eina as it is very
   convenient and optimized, and Eet provides integration with it.

   Recommended reading:

   @li @ref Eet_File_Group to know the basics to open and save files.
   @li @ref Eet_Data_Group to know the convenient way to serialize and
    parse your data structures automatically. Just create your
    descriptors and let Eet do the work for you.

   @section eet_main_intro_example Introductory Examples

   Here is a simple example on how to use Eet to save a series of strings to a
   file and load them again. The advantage of using Eet over just
   fprintf() and
   fscanf() is that not only can these entries be strings, they need no special
   parsing to handle delimiter characters or escaping, they can be binary data,
   image data, data structures containing integers, strings, other data
   structures, linked lists and much more, without the programmer having to
   worry about parsing, and best of all, Eet is very fast.

   This is just a very simple example that doesn't show all of the capabilities
   of Eet, but it serves to illustrate its simplicity.

/**
 * @defgroup Eet_File_Group Eet File Main Functions
 * @ingroup Eet
 *
 * Functions to create, destroy and do basic manipulation of
 * #Eet_File handles.
 *
 * This section explains how to use the most basic Eet functions, which
 * are used to work with eet files, read data from them, store it back in or
 * take a look at what entries it contains, without making use of the
 * serialization capabilities explained in @ref Eet_Data_Group.
 *
 * The following example will serve as an introduction to most, if not all,
 * of these functions.
 *
 * If you are only using Eet, this is the only header you need to include.
 * @dontinclude eet-file.c
 * @skipline Eet.h
 *
 * Now let's create ourselves an eet file to play with. The following function
 * shows step by step how to open a file and write some data in it.
 * First, we define our file handler and some other things we'll put in it.
 * @line static int
 * @skip Eet_File
 * @until ";
 * @skip eet_open
 *
 * We open a new file in write mode, and if it fails, we just return, since
 * there's not much more we can do about it..
 * @until return
 *
 * Now, we need to write some data in our file. For now, strings will suffice,
 * so let's just dump a bunch of them in there.
 * @until }
 *
 * As you can see, we copied a string into our static buffer, which is a bit
 * bigger than the full length of the string, and then told Eet to write it
 * into the file, compressed, returning the size of the data written into the
 * file.
 * This is all to show that Eet treats data as just data. It doesn't matter
 * what that data represents (for now), it's all just bytes for it. As running
 * the following code will show, we took a string of around 30 bytes and put it
 * in a buffer of 1024 bytes, but the returned size won't be any of those.
 * @until printf
 *
 * Next, we copy into our buffer our set of strings, including their null
 * terminators and write them into the file. No error checking for the sake
 * of brevity. And a call to eet_sync() to make sure all out data is
 * properly written down to disk, even though we haven't yet closed the file.
 * @until eet_sync
 *
 * One more write, this time our large array of binary data and... well, I
 * couldn't come up with a valid use of the last set of strings we stored,
 * so let's take it out from the file with eet_delete().
 * @until eet_delete
 *
 * Finally, we close the file, saving any changes back to disk and return.
 * Notice how, if there's any error closing the file or saving its contents,
 * the return value from the function will be a false one, which later on
 * will make the program exit with an error code.
 * @until return
 *
 * Moving onto our main function, we will open the same file and read it back.
 * Trivial, but it'll show how we can do so in more than one way. We'll skip
 * the variable declarations, as they aren't very different from what we've
 * seen already.
 *
 * We start from the beginning by initializing Eet so things in general work.
 * Forgetting to do so will result in weird results or crashes when calling
 * any eet function, so if you experience something like that, the first thing
 * to look at is whether eet_init() is missing.
 * Then we call our @p create_eet_file function, described above, to make
 * sure we have something to work with. If the function fails it will return
 * 0 and we just exit, since nothing from here onwards will work anyway.
 * @skip eet_init
 * @until return
 *
 * Let's take a look now at what entries our file has. For this, we use
 * eet_list(), which will return a list of strings, each being the name of
 * one entry. Since we skipped before, it may be worth noting that @p list
 * is declared as a @p char **.
 * The @p num parameter will, of course, have the number of entries contained
 * in our file.
 * If everything's fine, we'll get our list and print it to the screen, and
 * once done with it, we free the list. That's just the list, not its contents,
 * as they are internal strings used by Eet and trying to free them will surely
 * break things.
 * @until }
 *
 * Reading back plain data is simple. Just a call to eet_read() with the file
 * to read from, and the name of the entry we are interested in. We get back
 * our data and the passed @p size parameter will contain the size of it. If
 * the data was stored compressed, it will decompressed first.
 * @until }
 *
 * Another simple read for the set of strings from before, except those were
 * deleted, so we should get a NULL return and continue normally.
 * @until }
 *
 * Finally, we'll get our binary data in the same way we got the strings. Once
 * again, it makes no difference for Eet what the data is, it's up to us to
 * know how to handle it.
 * @until {
 *
 * Now some cheating, we know that this data is an Eet file because, well...
 * we just know it. So we are going to open it and take a look at its insides.
 * For this, eet_open() won't work, as it needs to have a file on disk to read
 * from and all we have is some data in RAM.
 *
 * So how do we do? One way would be to create a normal file and write down
 * our data, then open it with eet_open(). Another, faster and more efficient
 * if all we want to do is read the file, is to use eet_memopen_read().
 * @until memopen
 *
 * As you can see, the size we got from our previous read was put to good use
 * this time. Unlike the first one where all we had were strings, the size
 * of the data read only serves to demonstrate that we are reading back the
 * entire size of our original @p buf variable.
 *
 * A little peeking to see how many entries the file has and to make an
 * example of eet_num_entries() to get that number when we don't care about
 * their names.
 * @until printf
 *
 * More cheating follows. Just like we knew this was an Eet file, we also know
 * what key to read from, and on top of that we know that the data in it is not
 * compressed.
 * Knowing all this allows us to take some shortcuts.
 * @until read_direct
 *
 * That's a direct print of our data, whatever that data is. We don't want
 * to worry about having to free it later, so we just used eet_direct_read()
 * to tell Eet to gives a pointer to the internal data in the file, without
 * duplicating it. Since we said that data was not compressed, we shouldn't
 * worry about printing garbage to the screen (and yes, we also know the data
 * is yet another string).
 * We also don't care about the size of the data as it was stored in the file,
 * so we passed NULL as the size parameter.
 * One very important note about this, however, is that we don't care about
 * the size parameter because the data in the file contains the null
 * terminator for the string. So when using Eet to store strings this way,
 * it's very important to consider whether you will keep that final null
 * byte, or to always get the size read and do the necessary checks and copies.
 * It's up to the user and the particular use cases to decide how this will
 * be done.
 *
 * With everything done, close this second file and free the data used to open
 * it. And this is important, we can't free that data until we are done with
 * the file, as Eet is using it. When opening with eet_memopen_read(), the data
 * passed to it must be available for as long as the the file is open.
 * @until }
 *
 * Finally, we close the first file, shutdown all internal resources used by
 * Eet and leave our main function, thus terminating our program.
 * @until return
 *
 * You can look at the full code of the example @ref eet-file.c "here".

/**
 * @defgroup Eet_Data_Group Eet Data Serialization
 * @ingroup Eet
 *
 * Convenience functions to serialize and parse complex data
 * structures to binary blobs.
 *
 * While Eet core just handles binary blobs, it is often required
 * to save some structured data of different types, such as
 * strings, integers, lists, hashes and so on.
 *
 * Eet can serialize and then parse data types given some
 * construction instructions. These are defined in two levels:
 *
 * - #Eet_Data_Descriptor_Class to tell generic memory handling,
 *   such as the size of the type, how to allocate memory, strings,
 *   lists, hashes and so on.
 *
 * - #Eet_Data_Descriptor to tell inside such type, the members and
 *   their offsets inside the memory blob, their types and
 *   names. These members can be simple types or other
 *   #Eet_Data_Descriptor, allowing hierarchical types to be
 *   defined.
 *
 * Given that C provides no introspection, this process can be
 * quite cumbersome, so we provide lots of macros and convenience
 * functions to aid creating the types.
 *
 * We make now a quick overview of some of the most commonly used elements
 * of this part of the library. A simple example of a configuration system
 * will work as a somewhat real life example that is still simple enough to
 * follow.
 * Only the relevant sections will be shown here, but you can get the full
 * code @ref eet-data-simple.c "here".
 *
 * Ignoring the included headers, we'll begin by defining our configuration
 * struct.
 * @dontinclude eet-data-simple.c
 * @skip typedef
 * @until }
 *
 * When using Eet, you don't think in matters of what data the program needs
 * to run and which you would like to store. It's all the same and if it makes
 * more sense to keep them together, it's perfectly fine to do so. At the time
 * of telling Eet how your data is comprised you can leave out the things
 * that are runtime only and let Eet take care of the rest for you.
 *
 * The key used to store the config follows, as well as the variable used to
 * store our data descriptor.
 * This last one is very important. It's the one thing that Eet will use to
 * identify your data, both at the time of writing it to the file and when
 * loading from it.
 * @skipline MY_CONF
 * @skipline Eet_Data_Descriptor
 *
 * Now we'll see how to create this descriptor, so Eet knows how to handle
 * our data later on.
 * Begin our function by declaring an Eet_Data_Descriptor_Class, which is
 * used to create the actual descriptor. This class contains the name of
 * our data type, its size and several functions that dictate how Eet should
 * handle memory to allocate the necessary bits to bring our data to life.
 * You, as a user, will very hardly set this class' contents directly. The
 * most common scenario is to use one of the provided macros that set it using
 * the Eina data types, so that's what we'll be doing across all our examples.
 * @skip static void
 * @until eet_data_descriptor_stream_new
 *
 * Now that we have our descriptor, we need to make it describe something.
 * We do so by telling it which members of our struct we want it to know about
 * and their types.
 * The eet_data_descriptor_element_add() function takes care of this, but it's
 * too cumbersome for normal use, so several macros are provided that make
 * it easier to handle. Even with them, however, code can get very repetitive
 * and it's not uncommon to define custom macros using them to save on typing.
 * @skip #define
 * @until }
 *
 * Now our descriptor knows about the parts of our structure that we are
 * interesting in saving. You can see that not all of them are there, yet Eet
 * will find those that need saving and do the right thing. When loading our
 * data, any non-described fields in the structure will be zeroed, so there's
 * no need to worry about garbage memory in them.
 * Refer to the documentation of #EET_DATA_DESCRIPTOR_ADD_BASIC to understand
 * what our macro does.
 *
 * We are done with our descriptor init function and it's proper to have the
 * relevant shutdown. Proper coding guidelines indiciate that all memory
 * allocated should be freed when the program ends, and since you will most
 * likely keep your descriptor around for the life or your application, it's
 * only right to free it at the end.
 * @skip static void
 * @until }
 *
 * Not listed here, but included in the full example are functions to create
 * a blank configuration and free it. The first one will only be used when
 * no file exists to load from, or nothing is found in it, but the latter is
 * used regardless of where our data comes from. Unless you are reading direct
 * data from the Eet file, you will be in charge of freeing anything loaded
 * from it.
 *
 * Now it's time to look at how we can load our config from some file.
 * Begin by opening the Eet file normally.
 * @skip static My_Conf_Type
 * @until }
 *
 * And now we need to read the data from the file and decode it using our
 * descriptor. Fortunately, that's all done in one single step.
 * @until goto
 *
 * And that's it for all Eet cares about. But since we are dealing with a
 * common case, as is save and load of user configurations, the next fragment
 * of code shows why we have a version field in our struct, and how you can
 * use it to load older configuration files and update them as needed.
 * @until }
 *
 * Finally, close the file and return the newly loaded config data.
 * @until }
 *
 * Saving data is just as easy. The full version of the following function
 * includes code to save to a temporary file first, so you can be sure not
 * to lose all your data in the case of a failure mid-writing. You can look
 * at it @ref eet-data-simple.c "here".
 * @skip static Eina_Bool
 * @until {
 * @skipline Eina_Bool ret
 * @skip eet_open
 * @until eet_close
 * @skip return
 * @until }
 *
 * To close, our main function, which doesn't do much. Just take some arguments
 * from the command line with the name of the file to load and another one
 * where to save again. If input file doesn't exist, a new config structure
 * will be created and saved to our output file.
 * @skip int main
 * @until return ret
 * @until }

/**
 * @page eet_data_nested_example Nested structures and Eet Data Descriptors
 *
 * We've seen already a simple example of how to use Eet Data Descriptors
 * to handle our structures, but it didn't show how this works when you
 * have structures inside other structures.
 *
 * Now, there's a very simple case of this, for when you have inline structs
 * to keep your big structure more organized, you don't need anything else
 * besides what @ref eet-data-simple.c "this simple example does".
 * Just use something like @p some_struct.sub_struct.member when adding the
 * member to the descriptor and it will work.
 *
 * For example:
 * @code
 * typedef struct
 * {
 *    int a_number;
 *    char *a_string;
 *    struct {
 *       int other_num;
 *       int one_more;
 *    } sub;
 * } some_struct;
 *
 * void some_function()
 * {
 *    ...
 *    my_desc = eet_data_descriptor_stream_new(&eddc);
 *    EET_DATA_DESCRIPTOR_ADD_BASIC(my_desc, some_struct, "a_number",
 *                                  a_number, EET_T_INT);
 *    EET_DATA_DESCRIPTOR_ADD_BASIC(my_desc, some_struct, "a_string",
 *                                  a_string, EET_T_STRING);
 *    EET_DATA_DESCRIPTOR_ADD_BASIC(my_desc, some_struct, "sub.other_num",
 *                                  sub.other_num, EET_T_INT);
 *    EET_DATA_DESCRIPTOR_ADD_BASIC(my_desc, some_struct, "sub.one_more",
 *                                  sub.one_more, EET_T_INT);
 *    ...
 * }
 * @endcode
 *
 * But this is not what we are here for today. When we talk about nested
 * structures, what we really want are things like lists and hashes to be
 * taken into consideration automatically, and all their contents saved and
 * loaded just like ordinary integers and strings are.
 *
 * And of course, Eet can do that, and considering the work it saves you as a
 * programmer, we could say it's even easier to do than handling just integers.
 *
 * Let's begin with our example then, which is not all too different from the
 * simple one introduced earlier.
 *
 * We won't ignore the headers this time to show how easy it is to use Eina
 * data types with Eet, but we'll still skip most of the code that is not
 * pertinent to what we want to show now, but as usual, you can get it full
 * by following @ref eet-data-nested.c "this link".
 *
 * @dontinclude eet-data-nested.c
 * @skipline Eina.h
 * @skipline Eet.h
 * @skip typedef struct
 * @until } My_Conf_Subtype
 *
 * Extremely similar to our previous example. Just a new struct in there, and
 * a pointer to a list in the one we already had. Handling a list of subtypes
 * is easy on our program, but now we'll see what Eet needs to work with them
 * (Hint: it's easy too).
 * @skip _my_conf_descriptor
 * @until _my_conf_sub_descriptor
 *
 * Since we have two structures now, it's only natural that we'll need two
 * descriptors. One for each, which will be defined exactly as before.
 * @skip static void
 * @until eddc
 * @skip EET_EINA_STREAM_DATA_DESCRIPTOR_CLASS_SET
 * @until _my_conf_sub_descriptor
 *
 * We create our descriptors, each for one type, and as before, we are going to
 * use a simple macro to set their contents, to save on typing.
 * @skip #define
 * @until EET_T_UCHAR
 *
 * So far, nothing new. We have our descriptors and we know already how to
 * save them separately. But what we want is to link them together, and even
 * more so, we want our main type to hold a list of more than one of the new
 * sub type. So how do we do that?
 *
 * Simple enough, we tell Eet that our main descriptor will hold a list, of
 * which each node will point to some type described by our new descriptor.
 * @skip EET_DATA_DESCRIPTOR_ADD_LIST
 * @until _my_conf_sub_descriptor
 *
 * And that's all. We are closing the function now so as to not leave dangling
 * curly braces, but there's nothing more to show in this example. Only other
 * additions are the necessary code to free our new data, but you can see it
 * in the full code listing.
 * @until }
 */

/**
 * @page eet_data_file_descriptor Advanced use of Eet Data Descriptors
 *
 * A real life example is usually the best way to see how things are used,
 * but they also involve a lot more code than what needs to be shown, so
 * instead of going that way, we'll be borrowing some pieces from one in
 * the following example. It's been slightly modified from the original
 * source to show more of the varied ways in which Eet can handle our data.
 *
 * @ref eet-data-file_descriptor_01.c "This example" shows a cache of user
 * accounts and messages received, and it's a bit more interactive than
 * previous examples.
 *
 * Let's begin by looking at the structures we'll be using. First we have
 * one to define the messages the user receives and one for the one he posts.
 * Straight forward and nothing new here.
 * @dontinclude eet-data-file_descriptor_01.c
 * @skip typedef
 * @until My_Post
 *
 * One more to declare the account itself. This one will contain a list of
 * all messages received, and the posts we make ourselves will be kept in an
 * array. No special reason other than to show how to use arrays with Eet.
 * @until My_Account
 *
 * Finally, the main structure to hold our cache of accounts. We'll be looking
 * for these accounts by their names, so let's keep them in a hash, using
 * that name as the key.
 * @until My_Cache
 *
 * As explained before, we need one descriptor for each struct we want Eet
 * to handle, but this time we also want to keep around our Eet file and its
 * string dictionary. You will see why in a moment.
 * @skip Eet_Data_Descriptor
 * @until _my_post_descriptor
 * @skip Eet_File
 * @until Eet_Dictionary
 *
 * The differences begin now. They aren't much, but we'll be creating our
 * descriptors differently. Things can be added to our cache, but we won't
 * be modifying the current contents, so we can consider the data read from
 * it to be read-only, and thus allow Eet to save time and memory by not
 * duplicating thins unnecessary.
 * @skip static void
 * @until _my_post_descriptor
 *
 * As the comment in the code explains, we are asking Eet to give us strings
 * directly from the mapped file, which avoids having to load it in memory
 * and data duplication.
 * Of course, there are things to take into account when doing things this
 * way, and they will be mentioned as we encounter those special cases.
 *
 * Next comes the actual description of our data, just like we did in the
 * previous examples.
 * @skip #define
 * @until #undef
 * @until #define
 * @until #undef
 *
 * And the account struct's description doesn't add much new, but it's worth
 * commenting on it.
 * @skip #define
 * @until _my_post_descriptor
 *
 * How to add a list we've seen before, but now we are also adding an array.
 * There's nothing really special about it, but it's important to note that
 * the EET_DATA_DESCRIPTOR_ADD_VAR_ARRAY is used to add arrays of variable
 * length to a descriptor. That is, arrays just like the one we defined.
 * Since there's no way in C to know how long they are, we need to keep
 * track of the count ourselves and Eet needs to know how to do so as well.
 * That's what the @p posts_count member of our struct is for. When adding
 * our array member, this macro will look for another variable in the struct
 * named just like the array, but with @p _count attached to the end.
 * When saving our data, Eet will know how many elements the array contains
 * by looking into this count variable. When loading back from a file, this
 * variable will be set to the right number of elements.
 *
 * Another option for arrays is to use EET_DATA_DESCRIPTOR_ADD_ARRAY, which
 * takes care of fixed sized arrays.
 * For example, let's suppose that we want to keep track of only the last
 * ten posts the user sent, and we declare our account struct as follows
 * @code
 * typedef struct
 * {
 *    unsigned int id;
 *    const char  *name;
 *    Eina_List   *messages;
 *    My_Post      posts[10];
 * } My_Account;
 * @endcode
 * Then we would add the array to our descriptor with
 * @code
 * EET_DATA_DESCRIPTOR_ADD_ARRAY(_my_account_descriptor, My_Account, "posts",
 *                               posts, _my_post_descriptor);
 * @endcode
 *
 * Notice how this time we don't have a @p posts_count variable in our struct.
 * We could have it for the program to keep track of how many posts the
 * array actually contains, but Eet no longer needs it. Being defined that
 * way the array is already taking up all the memory needed for the ten
 * elements, and it is possible in C to determine how much it is in code.
 * When saving our data, Eet will just dump the entire memory blob into the
 * file, regardless of how much of it is really used. So it's important to
 * take into consideration this kind of things when defining your data types.
 * Each has its uses, its advantages and disadvantages and it's up to you
 * to decide which to use.
 *
 * Now, going back to our example, we have to finish adding our data to the
 * descriptors. We are only missing the main one for the cache, which
 * contains our hash of accounts.
 * Unless you are using your own hash functions when setting the descriptor
 * class, always use hashes with string type keys.
 * @skip #define
 * @until }
 *
 * If you remember, we told Eet not to duplicate memory when possible at the
 * time of loading back our data. But this doesn't mean everything will be
 * loaded straight from disk and we don't have to worry about freeing it.
 * Data in the Eet file is compressed and encoded, so it still needs to be
 * decoded and memory will be allocated to convert it back into something we
 * can use. We also need to take care of anything we add in the current
 * instance of the program.
 * To summarize, any string we get from Eet is likely to be a pointer to the
 * internal dictionary, and trying to free it will, in the best case, crash
 * our application right away.
 *
 * So how do we know if we have to free a string? We check if it's part of
 * the dictionary, and if it's not there we can be sure it's safe to get
 * rid of it.
 * @skip static void
 * @skip }
 * @skip static void
 * @until }
 *
 * See how this is used when adding a new message to our cache.
 * @skip static My_Message
 * @until return msg
 * @until free(msg)
 * @until }
 *
 * Skipping all the utility functions used by our program (remember you can
 * look at the full example @ref eet-data-file_descriptor_01.c "here") we get to
 * our cache loading code. Nothing out of the ordinary at first, just the
 * same old open file, read data using our main descriptor to decode it
 * into something we can use and check version of loaded data and if it doesn't
 * match, do something accordingly.
 * @skip static My_Cache
 * @until }
 * @until }
 * @until }
 *
 * Then comes the interesting part. Remember how we kept two more global
 * variables with our descriptors? One of them we already used to check if
 * it was right to free a string or not, but we didn't know where it came from.
 * Loading our data straight from the mmapped file means that we can't close
 * it until we are done using it, so we need to keep its handler around until
 * then. It also means that any changes done to the file can, and will,
 * invalidate all our pointers to the file backed data, so if we add something
 * and save the file, we need to reload our cache.
 *
 * Thus our load function checks if we had an open file, if there is it gets
 * closed and our variable is updated to the new handler. Then we get the
 * string dictionary we use to check if a string is part of it or not.
 * Updating any references to the cache data is up you as a programmer to
 * handle properly, there's nothing Eet can do in this situation.
 * @until }
 *
 * The save function doesn't have anything new, and all that's left after it
 * is the main program, which doesn't really have anything of interest within
 * the scope of what we are learning.

 * This macro is a convenience macro provided to add a member to

 * used to uniquely name that member of the struct (it is suggested
 * to use the struct member itself).  The @p member parameter is
 * the actual struct member itself (for example: values), and @p type is the
 * basic data type of the member which must be one of: EET_T_CHAR, EET_T_SHORT,
 * EET_T_INT, EET_T_LONG_LONG, EET_T_FLOAT, EET_T_DOUBLE, EET_T_UCHAR,
