|
PhysicsFS is a library to provide abstract access to various archives. It is
|
|
intended for use in video games, and the design was somewhat inspired by Quake 3's
|
|
file subsystem. The programmer defines a "write directory" on the physical
|
|
filesystem. No file writing done through the PhysicsFS API can leave that write
|
|
directory, for security. For example, an embedded scripting language cannot write
|
|
outside of this path if it uses PhysFS for all of its I/O, which means that
|
|
untrusted scripts can run more safely. Symbolic links can be disabled as well, for
|
|
added safety. For file reading, the programmer lists directories and archives that
|
|
form a "search path". Once the search path is defined, it becomes a single,
|
|
transparent hierarchical filesystem. This makes for easy access to ZIP files in the
|
|
same way as you access a file directly on the disk, and it makes it easy to ship a
|
|
new archive that will override a previous archive on a per-file basis. Finally,
|
|
PhysicsFS gives you platform-abstracted means to determine if CD-ROMs are available,
|
|
the user's home directory, where in the real filesystem your program is running,
|
|
etc.
