1"""Simple class to read IFF chunks.
2
3An IFF chunk (used in formats such as AIFF, TIFF, RMFF (RealMedia File
4Format)) has the following structure:
5
6+----------------+
7| ID (4 bytes) |
8+----------------+
9| size (4 bytes) |
10+----------------+
11| data |
12| ... |
13+----------------+
14
15The ID is a 4-byte string which identifies the type of chunk.
16
17The size field (a 32-bit value, encoded using big-endian byte order)
18gives the size of the whole chunk, including the 8-byte header.
19
20Usually an IFF-type file consists of one or more chunks. The proposed
21usage of the Chunk class defined here is to instantiate an instance at
22the start of each chunk and read from the instance until it reaches
23the end, after which a new instance can be instantiated. At the end
24of the file, creating a new instance will fail with a EOFError
25exception.
26
27Usage:
28while True:
29 try:
30 chunk = Chunk(file)
31 except EOFError:
32 break
33 chunktype = chunk.getname()
34 while True:
35 data = chunk.read(nbytes)
36 if not data:
37 pass
38 # do something with data
39
40The interface is file-like. The implemented methods are:
41read, close, seek, tell, isatty.
42Extra methods are: skip() (called by close, skips to the end of the chunk),
43getname() (returns the name (ID) of the chunk)
44
45The __init__ method has one required argument, a file-like object
46(including a chunk instance), and one optional argument, a flag which
47specifies whether or not chunks are aligned on 2-byte boundaries. The
48default is 1, i.e. aligned.
