489 PPD API introduction for CUPS.

501 <h2 class='title'
><a name='OVERVIEW'
>Overview
</a></h2>
503 <p>The CUPS PPD API provides read-only access the data in PostScript Printer
504 Description (
"PPD") files which are used for all printers with a driver. With
505 it you can obtain the data necessary to display printer options to users, mark
506 option choices and check for conflicting choices, and output marked choices in
507 PostScript output. The
<a href=
"#ppd_file_t"><code>ppd_file_t
</code></a>
508 structure contains all of the information in a PPD file.
</p>
510 <blockquote><b>Note:
</b>
512 <p>The CUPS PPD API uses the terms
"option" and
"choice" instead of the Adobe
513 terms
"MainKeyword" and
"OptionKeyword" to refer to specific printer options and
514 features. CUPS also treats option (
"MainKeyword") and choice (
"OptionKeyword")
515 values as case-insensitive strings, so option
"InputSlot" and choice
"Upper"
516 are equivalent to
"inputslot" and
"upper", respectively.
</p>
519 <h3><a name=
"LOADING">Loading a PPD File
</a></h3>
521 <p>The
<a href=
"#ppdOpenFile"><code>ppdOpenFile
</code></a> function
"opens" a
522 PPD file and loads it into memory. For example, the following code opens the
523 current printer's PPD file in a CUPS filter:
</p>
525 <pre class=
"example">
526 #include
<cups/ppd.h
>
528 <a href=
"#ppd_file_t">ppd_file_t
</a> *ppd =
<a href=
"#ppdOpenFile">ppdOpenFile
</a>(getenv(
"PPD"));
531 <p>The return value is a pointer to a new
532 <a href=
"#ppd_file_t"><code>ppd_file_t
</code></a> structure or
<code>NULL
</code>
533 if the PPD file does not exist or cannot be loaded. The
534 <a href=
"#ppdClose"><code>ppdClose
</code></a> function frees the memory used
535 by the structure:
</p>
537 <pre class=
"example">
538 #include
<cups/ppd.h
>
540 <a href=
"#ppd_file_t">ppd_file_t
</a> *ppd;
542 <a href=
"#ppdClose">ppdClose
</a>(ppd);
545 <p>Once closed, pointers to the
<a href=
"#ppd_file_t"><code>ppd_file_t
</code></a>
546 structure and any data in it will no longer be valid.
</p>
548 <h3><a name=
"OPTIONS_AND_GROUPS">Options and Groups
</a></h3>
550 <p>PPD files support multiple options, which are stored in arrays of
551 <a href=
"#ppd_option_t"><code>ppd_option_t
</code></a> and
552 <a href=
"#ppd_choice_t"><code>ppd_choice_t
</code></a> structures.
</p>
554 <p>Each option in turn is associated with a group stored in a
555 <a href=
"#ppd_group_t"><code>ppd_group_t
</code></a> structure. Groups can be
556 specified in the PPD file; if an option is not associated with a group
557 then it is put in an automatically-generated
"General" group. Groups can also
558 have sub-groups, however CUPS currently ignores sub-groups because of past
559 abuses of this functionality.
</p>
561 <p>Option choices are selected by marking them using one of three functions. The
562 first is
<a href=
"#ppdMarkDefaults"><code>ppdMarkDefaults
</code></a> which
563 selects all of the default options in the PPD file:
</p>
565 <pre class=
"example">
566 #include
<cups/ppd.h
>
568 <a href=
"#ppd_file_t">ppd_file_t
</a> *ppd;
570 <a href=
"#ppdMarkDefaults">ppdMarkDefaults
</a>(ppd);
573 <p>The second is
<a href=
"#ppdMarkOption"><code>ppdMarkOption
</code></a>
574 which selects a single option choice in the PPD file. For example, the following
575 code selects the upper paper tray:
</p>
577 <pre class=
"example">
578 #include
<cups/ppd.h
>
580 <a href=
"#ppd_file_t">ppd_file_t
</a> *ppd;
582 <a href=
"#ppdMarkOption">ppdMarkOption
</a>(ppd,
"InputSlot",
"Upper");
585 <p>The last function is
586 <a href=
"#cupsMarkOptions"><code>cupsMarkOptions
</code></a> which selects
587 multiple option choices in the PPD file from an array of CUPS options, mapping
588 IPP attributes like
"media" and
"sides" to their corresponding PPD options. You
589 typically use this function in a print filter with
590 <code>cupsParseOptions
</code> and
591 <a href=
"#ppdMarkDefaults"><code>ppdMarkDefaults
</code></a> to select all of
592 the option choices needed for the job, for example:
</p>
594 <pre class=
"example">
595 #include
<cups/ppd.h
>
597 <a href=
"#ppd_file_t">ppd_file_t
</a> *ppd =
<a href=
"#ppdOpenFile">ppdOpenFile
</a>(getenv(
"PPD"));
598 cups_option_t *options = NULL;
599 int num_options = cupsParseOptions(argv[
5],
0,
&options);
601 <a href=
"#ppdMarkDefaults">ppdMarkDefaults
</a>(ppd);
602 <a href=
"#cupsMarkOptions">cupsMarkOptions
</a>(ppd, num_options, options);
603 cupsFreeOptions(num_options, options);
606 <h3><a name=
"CONSTRAINTS">Constraints
</a></h3>
608 <p>PPD files support specification of conflict conditions, called
609 constraints, between different options. Constraints are stored in an array of
610 <a href=
"#ppd_const_t"><code>ppd_const_t
</code></a> structures which specify
611 the options and choices that conflict with each other. The
612 <a href=
"#ppdConflicts"><code>ppdConflicts
</code></a> function tells you
613 how many of the selected options are incompatible. Since constraints are
614 normally specified in pairs, the returned value is typically an even number.
</p>
616 <h3><a name=
"PAGE_SIZES">Page Sizes
</a></h3>
618 <p>Page sizes are special options which have physical dimensions and margins
619 associated with them. The size information is stored in
620 <a href=
"#ppd_size_t"><code>ppd_size_t
</code></a> structures and is available
621 by looking up the named size with the
622 <a href=
"#ppdPageSize"><code>ppdPageSize
</code></a> function. The page size and
623 margins are returned in units called points; there are
72 points per inch. If
624 you pass
<code>NULL
</code> for the size, the currently selected size is
627 <pre class=
"example">
628 #include
<cups/ppd.h
>
630 <a href=
"#ppd_file_t">ppd_file_t
</a> *ppd;
631 <a href=
"#ppd_size_t">ppd_size_t
</a> *size =
<a href=
"#ppdPageSize">ppdPageSize
</a>(ppd, NULL);
634 <p>Besides the standard page sizes listed in a PPD file, some printers
635 support variable or custom page sizes. Custom page sizes are supported if the
636 <code>variables_sizes
</code> member of the
637 <a href=
"#ppd_file_t"><code>ppd_file_t
</code></a> structure is non-zero.
638 The
<code>custom_min
</code>,
<code>custom_max
</code>, and
639 <code>custom_margins

670 <h3><a name=
"ATTRIBUTES">Attributes
</a></h3>
672 <p>Every PPD file is composed of one or more attributes. Most of these
673 attributes are used to define groups, options, choices, and page sizes,
674 however several informational attributes may be present which you can access
675 in your program or filter. Attributes normally look like one of the following
676 examples in a PPD file:
</p>
678 <pre class=
"example">
681 *name spec/text:
"value"
684 <p>The
<a href=
"#ppdFindAttr"><code>ppdFindAttr
</code></a> and
685 <a href=
"#ppdFindNextAttr"><code>ppdFindNextAttr
</code></a> functions find the
686 first and next instances, respectively, of the named attribute with the given
687 "spec" string and return a
<a href=
"#ppd_attr_t"><code>ppd_attr_t
</code></a>
688 structure. If you provide a NULL specifier string, all attributes with the
689 given name will be returned. For example, the following code lists all of the
690 <code>Product
</code> attributes in a PPD file:

787 <p class=
"discussion">This function attempts to resolve any conflicts in a marked PPD, returning
788 a list of option changes that are required to resolve them. On input,
789 "num_options
" and
"options
" contain any pending option changes that have
790 not yet been marked, while
"option
" and
"choice
" contain the most recent
791 selection which may or may not be in
"num_options
" or
"options
".
<br>
793 On successful return,
"num_options
" and
"options
" are updated to contain
794 "option
" and
"choice
" along with any changes required to resolve conflicts
795 specified in the PPD file and
1 is returned.
<br>
797 If option conflicts cannot be resolved,
"num_options
" and
"options
" are not
798 changed and
0 is returned.
<br>
800 When resolving conflicts,
<code>cupsResolveConflicts
</code> does not consider
801 changes to the current page size (
<code>media
</code>,
<code>PageSize
</code>, and
802 <code>PageRegion
</code>) or to the most recent option specified in
"option
".
803 Thus, if the only way to resolve a conflict is to change the page size
804 or the option the user most recently changed,
<code>cupsResolveConflicts
</code>
805 will return
0 to indicate it was unable to resolve the conflicts.
<br>
807 The
<code>cupsResolveConflicts
</code> function uses one of two sources of option
808 constraint information. The preferred constraint information is defined by
809 <code>cupsUIConstraints
</code> and
<code>cupsUIResolver
</code> attributes - in this
810 case, the PPD file provides constraint resolution actions.
<br>
812 The backup constraint information is defined by the
813 <code>UIConstraints
</code> and
<code>NonUIConstraints
</code> attributes. These
814 constraints are resolved algorithmically by first selecting the default
815 choice for the conflicting option, then iterating over all possible choices
816 until a non-conflicting option choice is found.
