We suggested this when it was written (and I'm yet to have fully translated
the image parsers to use the new one, open issue yadayada) so if you're
going to create a proper fileparser class, do it soon and we can update the
outstanding changes to use the new class.
Willie wrote this class when getting the font support for zpdf going and its
quite robust.
We suggested a generalized parser, but we've barely got the time to handle
our own backyard let alone push through a full proposal etc. However, that
was our intent for this stuff; after we wrote 4 or 5 specific format parsers
and said *wtf* =P
So ya, proposal sounds good, push it through n such.

Naturally, you post this after I spend part of my weekend writing a byte
parser with similar functionality. :-D
This needs to split off into its own component ASAP. Additional
functionality can get filled in as it comes. Some really useful stuff in
there for file parsing.
The current files:
Zend_Pdf_FileParser
Zend_Pdf_FileParserDataSource (abstract)
Zend_Pdf_FileParserDataSource_File extends Zend_Pdf_FileParserDataSource
Zend_Pdf_FileParserDataSource_String extends Zend_Pdf_FileParserDataSource
Zend_Pdf_FileParser_DataSource can pretty easily become an interface
instead. Perhaps:
Zend_File_Parser
Zend_File_Interface
Zend_File implements Zend_File_Interface
Zend_String implements Zend_File_Interface
I have one or two ideas for a Zend_String class. The first is a method
for converting "stringified" string literals (for instance, '\x00', as
opposed to "\x00") to their literal value. This is necessary when parsing
magic files (see my Zend_Mime_Magic proposal). I'm sure others can think
of ideas for that as well.

There is also an excellent binary file parser in Zend_Pdf if you need to
parse a binary file format.

Have you looked into the SPL?
http://www.php.net/~helly/php/ext/spl/
Specifically: DirectoryIterator, SPLFileInfo, SplFileObject
You might find some useful information and File/Directory patterns in
there.

Hello Matt,
Well. In first instance I am thinking about the basic file system
related
operations like: create, remove, rename, move, copy or find directories
and files. Basically, what we can already do, but in an object-oriented
manner. In addition to this, I have been also thinking about a
something
like a recycle bin.
Regards,
Ivan.

Hello,
I am looking for a class or a set of classes that allow an
object-oriented operation with the file system. I am working now with
SPL and I have also taken a look to PEAR, but I haven't so far found
a
comprehensive solution. As far as I know is such a library not
included
in Zend Framework.
Here my questions:
- Is the inclusion of such functionality planed within Zend
Framework?
- Does anyone know about such a library?
Thanks.
Best regards,
Ivan.
