apm_read_package_info_file (public)

 apm_read_package_info_file path

Defined in packages/acs-tcl/tcl/apm-xml-procs.tcl

Reads a .info file, returning an array containing the following items:

  • path: a path to the file read
  • mtime: the mtime of the file read
  • provides, embeds, extends, and requires:

    lists of dependency information, containing elements of the form [list $url $version]

  • owners: a list of owners containing elements of the form [list $url $name]
  • files: a list of files in the package, containing elements of the form [list $path $type] NOTE: Files are no longer stored in info files but are always retrieved directly from the filesystem. This element in the array will always be the empty list.
  • callbacks: an array list of callbacks of the package on the form [list callback_type1 proc_name1 callback_type2 proc_name2 ...]
  • Element and attribute values directly from the XML specification: package.key, package.url, package.type package-name, pretty-plural initial-install-p singleton-p auto-mount name (the version name, e.g., 3.3a1), url (the version URL), option, summary, description, release-date, vendor, group, vendor.url, and description.format, maturity, maturity_text.
This routine will typically be called like so: 
array set version_properties [apm_read_package_info_file $path]
to populate the version_properties array.

If the .info file cannot be read or parsed, this routine throws a descriptive error.

Parameters:
path (required)
