NAME
tcl::transform::adler32 - Adler32 transformation
SYNOPSIS
package require Tcl 8.6
package require tcl::transform::core ?1?
package require tcl::transform::adler32 ?1?
::tcl::transform::adler32 chan -option value...
______________________________________________________________________________
DESCRIPTION
The tcl::transform::adler32 package provides a command creating a chan-
nel transformation which passes the read and written bytes through un-
changed (like tcl::transform::identity), but additionally continuously
computes the adler32 checksums of the data it has seen for each direc-
tion and stores them in Tcl variables specified at construction time.
Related transformations in this module are tcl::transform::counter,
tcl::transform::crc32, tcl::transform::identity, and tcl::trans-
form::observe.
The internal TclOO class implementing the transform handler is a sub-
class of the tcl::transform::core framework.
API
::tcl::transform::adler32 chan -option value...
This command creates an adler32 checksumming transformation on
top of the channel chan and returns its handle. The accepted op-
tions are
-read-variable varname
The value of the option is the name of a global or names-
paced variable, the location where the transformation has
to store the adler32 checksum of the data read from the
channel.
If not specified, or the empty string, the checksum of
the read direction is not saved.
-write-variable varname
The value of the option is the name of a global or names-
paced variable, the location where the transformation has
to store the adler32 checksum of the data written to the
channel.
If not specified, or the empty string, the checksum of
the write direction is not saved.
BUGS, IDEAS, FEEDBACK
