Re: [Swftools-common] Passing swf in stdin/pipe to swfdump
Isn't it possible to read from stdin into a buffer in memory, then determine it's size, and then go over the data in memory?

Afraid that a temporary file is the only way to do this- in its current implementation, swfdump reads the file twice- once to determine the file type, and a second time to actually parse, so it can't process a stdin stream for that very reason.

Matthias While you may not be able to change the way the command works, you could always change the way the 'file' is read.. .. in which case, this may help, https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Tmpfs Regards, Chris. --- SWFTools-common is a self-managed list.

[Swftools-common] Passing swf in stdin/pipe to swfdump
Hello, I'm handling a SWF file in memory in my program, and would like to pass the file to swfdump and read the output. How can this be done without writing it to a temporary file on disk and then passing the filename as parameter, for example using a pipe or similar option? If the code (swfdump.c) needs a minor adjustment (in the open(), allow stdin instead), can you please make it? Thank you, RK. --- SWFTools-common is a self-managed list.
