class RResourceReader;
Interprets resource data read from a resource file.
To use an instance of this class, pass the CResourceFile
object containing the resource data with aResourceId ID to it, by calling OpenL()
or OpenLC()
. Close the reader calling Close()
after finishing with the resource.
The current position within the buffer is always maintained and any request for data is always supplied from the current position. The current position is always updated .
Expected behaviour when assignment operator or copy constructor is called: The class doesn't have assignment operator and copy constructor, so the compiler generated ones will be used. The buffer used by the source class instance will be shared with the destination class instance. However source and destination instances will have their own current position pointers, both pointed initially to the same buffer position.

IMPORT_C RResourceReader();
It creates the implementation in place - iImpl array, and sets the default leave/panic behaviour of the object - the object "L" methods will leave if something goes wrong.
IMPORT_C ~RResourceReader();
The method calls RResourceReader::Close()
method to release allocated by the instance resources.
IMPORT_C void OpenL(const CResourceFile *aRscFile, TInt aResourceId);
Sets the buffer containing the resource data.
The current position within the buffer is set to the start of the buffer so that subsequent calls to the interpreting functions, for example ReadInt8(), start at the beginning of this buffer.

|
IMPORT_C void OpenLC(const CResourceFile *aRscFile, TInt aResourceId);
Sets the buffer containing the resource data.
The current position within the buffer is set to the start of the buffer so that subsequent calls to the interpreting functions, for example ReadInt8(), start at the beginning of this buffer.
A pointer to current RResourceReader instance is placed into the cleanup stack.
|

IMPORT_C void OpenL(const TDesC8 &aRscData);
Sets the buffer containing the resource data.
The current position within the buffer is set to the start of the buffer so that subsequent calls to the interpreting functions, for example ReadInt8(), start at the beginning of this buffer.

IMPORT_C void OpenLC(const TDesC8 &aRscData);
Sets the buffer containing the resource data.
The current position within the buffer is set to the start of the buffer so that subsequent calls to the interpreting functions, for example ReadInt8(), start at the beginning of this buffer.
A pointer to current RResourceReader instance is placed into the cleanup stack.
|
IMPORT_C void Close();
Destroys the buffer containing the resource data.
Open() method should be called if you want to set the buffer and current position again.
If a one or more copies of the same RResourceReader object exist - they share the same resource data buffer. So destroying the RResourceReader object you will destroy the shared resource data buffer.
Buffer pointer is set to NULL.
Buffer current position pointer is set to NULL.
IMPORT_C HBufC *ReadHBufCL();
Open() is called to initialize RResourceReader data members.
Interprets the data at the current buffer position as leading byte count data and constructs a build independent heap descriptor containing a copy of this data.
The data is interpreted as:
a byte value defining the number of text characters or the length of binary data (the resource string/binary data length is limited to 255 characters max)
followed by:
the text characters or binary data. This resource data is interpreted as either 8Â bit or 16Â bit, depending on the build.
If the value of the leading byte is zero, the function assumes that no data follows the leading byte and returns a NULL pointer.
The current position within the resource buffer is updated.
Use this build independent variant when the resource contains text. If the resource contains binary data, use the explicit
8Â bit variant ReadHBufC8L()
.
Current buffer position is updated.

The current position within the resource buffer is updated.
Use this explicit 8Â bit variant when the resource contains binary data. If the resource contains text, then use the build
independent variant ReadHBufCL()

In general, this type of resource data corresponds to one of the following:
a LTEXT type in a resource STRUCT declaration.
a variable length array within a STRUCT declaration which includes the LEN BYTE keywords.
