This retrieves a JSON blob containing details from the file's contents.

Syntax

void truxton_file_get_details( uint64_t file_handle, char * destination_string, size_t max_size )

Parameters

file_handle

The handle created by the truxton_file_open_id or truxton_file_open_md5 call.

destination_string

The string to be written to.

max_size

The maximum number of characters that can be written to destination_string.

Remarks

This method only works on files with contents. It does not work for every file type in Truxton. But, if it is a supported file type, Truxton will open the file, interpret the contents and output details in JSON format.

Sample

int print_id(uint64_t truxton)
{
   uint64_t file = truxton_file_open_md5(truxton, "9ec8fb6095c35eff2b236863b7caaf10");

   if ( file != 0 )
   {
      return(0);
   }

   char json[ 16384 ];

   truxton_file_get_depot_name( file, json, sizeof(json));

   printf( "%s\n", name_string);
}
