#ifndef QPDF_C_H
#define QPDF_C_H

/*
 * This file defines a basic "C" API for qpdf. It provides access to a subset of the QPDF library's
 * capabilities to make them accessible to callers who can't handle calling C++ functions or working
 * with C++ classes. This may be especially useful to Windows users who are accessing the qpdf DLL
 * directly or to other people programming in non-C/C++ languages that can call C code but not C++
 * code. Starting with qpdf 11.7, it is possible to write your own `extern "C"` functions that
 * interoperate with the C API.
 *
 * There are several things to keep in mind when using the C API.
 *
 *     Error handling is tricky because the underlying C++ API uses exception handling. See "ERROR
 *     HANDLING" below for a detailed explanation.
 *
 *     The C API is not as rich as the C++ API. For many operations, you must use the C++ API. The C
 *     API is primarily useful for doing basic transformations on PDF files similar to what you
 *     might do with the qpdf command-line tool. You can write your own `extern "C"` functions in
 *     C++ that interoperate with the C API by using qpdf_c_get_qpdf and qpdf_c_wrap which were
 *     introduced in qpdf 11.7.0.
 *
 *     These functions store their state in a qpdf_data object. Individual instances of qpdf_data
 *     are not thread-safe: although you may access different qpdf_data objects from different
 *     threads, you may not access one qpdf_data simultaneously from multiple threads.
 *
 *     All dynamic memory, except for that of the qpdf_data object itself, is managed by the library
 *     unless otherwise noted. You must create a qpdf_data object using qpdf_init and free it using
 *     qpdf_cleanup.
 *
 *     Many functions return char*. In all cases, the char* values returned are pointers to data
 *     inside the qpdf_data object. As such, they are always freed by qpdf_cleanup. In most cases,
 *     strings returned by functions here may be invalidated by subsequent function calls, sometimes
 *     even to different functions. If you want a string to last past the next qpdf call or after a
 *     call to qpdf_cleanup, you should make a copy of it.
 *
 *     Since it is possible for a PDF string to contain null characters, a function that returns
 *     data originating from a PDF string may also contain null characters. To handle that case, you
 *     call qpdf_get_last_string_length() to get the length of whatever string was just returned.
 *     See STRING FUNCTIONS below.
 *
 *     Most functions defined here have obvious counterparts that are  methods to either QPDF or
 *     QPDFWriter.  Please see comments in QPDF.hh and QPDFWriter.hh for details on their use.  In
 *     order to avoid duplication of information, comments here focus primarily on differences
 *     between the C and C++ API.

/* ERROR HANDLING -- changed in qpdf 10.5 */

/* SUMMARY: The only way to know whether a function that does not return an error code has
 * encountered an error is to call qpdf_has_error after each function. You can do this even for
 * functions that do return error codes. You can also call qpdf_silence_errors to prevent qpdf from
 * writing these errors to stderr.
 *
 * DETAILS:
 *
 * The data type underlying qpdf_data maintains a list of warnings and a single error. To retrieve
 * warnings, call qpdf_next_warning while qpdf_more_warnings is true. To retrieve the error, call
 * qpdf_get_error when qpdf_has_error is true.
 *
 * There are several things that are important to understand.
 *
 * Some functions return an error code. The value of the error code is made up of a bitwise-OR of
 * QPDF_WARNINGS and QPDF_ERRORS. The QPDF_ERRORS bit is set if there was an error during the *most
 * recent call* to the API. The QPDF_WARNINGS bit is set if there are any warnings that have not yet
 * been retrieved by calling qpdf_more_warnings. It is possible for both its or neither bit to be
 * set.
 *
 * The expected mode of operation is to go through a series of operations, checking for errors after
 * each call, but only checking for warnings at the end. This is similar to how it works in the C++
 * API where warnings are handled in exactly this way but errors result in exceptions being thrown.
 * However, in both the C and C++ API, it is possible to check for and handle warnings as they
 * arise.
 *
 * Some functions return values (or void) rather than an error code. This is especially true with
 * the object handling functions. Those functions can still generate errors. To handle errors in
 * those cases, you should explicitly call qpdf_has_error(). Note that, if you want to avoid the
 * inconsistencies in the interface, you can always check for error conditions in this way rather
 * than looking at status return codes.
 *
 * Prior to qpdf 10.5, if one of the functions that does not return an error code encountered an
 * exception, it would cause the entire program to crash. Starting in qpdf 10.5, the default
 * response to an error condition in these situations is to print the error to standard error, issue
 * exactly one warning indicating that such an error occurred, and return a sensible fallback value
 * (0 for numbers, QPDF_FALSE for booleans, "" for strings, or a null or uninitialized object
 * handle). This is better than the old behavior but still undesirable as the best option is to
 * explicitly check for error conditions.
 *
 * To prevent qpdf from writing error messages to stderr in this way, you can call
 * qpdf_silence_errors(). This signals to the qpdf library that you intend to check the error codes
 * yourself.
 *
 * If you encounter a situation where an exception from the C++ code is not properly converted to an
 * error as described above, it is a bug in qpdf, which should be reported at
 * https://github.com/qpdf/qpdf/issues/new.

    /* Object handling.
     *
     * These functions take and return a qpdf_oh object handle, which is just an unsigned integer.
     * The value 0 is never returned, which makes it usable as an uninitialized value. The handles
     * returned by these functions are guaranteed to be unique, i.e. two calls to (the same of
     * different) functions will return distinct handles even when they refer to the same object.
     *
     * Each function below, starting with qpdf_oh, corresponds to a specific method of
     * QPDFObjectHandler. For example, qpdf_oh_is_bool corresponds to QPDFObjectHandle::isBool. If
     * the C++ method is overloaded, the C function's name will be disambiguated. If the C++ method
     * takes optional arguments, the C function will have required arguments in those positions. For
     * details about the method, please see comments in QPDFObjectHandle.hh. Comments here only
     * explain things that are specific to the "C" API.
     *
     * Only a fraction of the methods of QPDFObjectHandle are available here. Most of the basic
     * methods for creating, accessing, and modifying most types of objects are present. Most of the
     * higher-level functions are not implemented. Functions for dealing with content streams as
     * well as objects that only exist in content streams (operators and inline images) are mostly
     * not provided.
     *
     * To refer to a specific QPDFObjectHandle, you need a pair consisting of a qpdf_data and a
     * qpdf_oh, which is just an index into an internal table of objects. All memory allocated by
     * any of these functions is returned when qpdf_cleanup is called.
     *
     * Regarding memory, the same rules apply as the above functions. Specifically, if a function
     * returns a char*, the memory is managed by the library and, unless otherwise specified, is not
     * expected to be valid after the next qpdf call.
     *
     * The qpdf_data object keeps a cache of handles returned by these functions. Once you are
     * finished referencing a handle, you can optionally release it. Releasing handles is optional
     * since they will all get released by qpdf_cleanup, but it can help to reduce the memory
     * footprint of the qpdf_data object to release them when you're done. Releasing a handle does
     * not destroy the object. All QPDFObjectHandle objects are deleted when they are no longer
     * referenced. Releasing an object handle simply invalidates it. For example, if you create an
     * object, add it to an existing dictionary or array, and then release its handle, the object is
     * safely part of the dictionary or array. Similarly, any other object handle referring to the
     * object remains valid. Explicitly releasing an object handle is essentially the same as
     * letting a QPDFObjectHandle go out of scope in the C++ API.
     *
     * Please see "ERROR HANDLING" above for details on how error conditions are handled.
