=head1 NAME

Config::Apple::Profile::Payload::Tie::Array - Tying class for arrays of things.

=head1 DESCRIPTION

This class is used to store an array of I.  Exactly what I are
being stored is specified at the time the tie is made.

There are several payload types that contain arrays of things.  For example,
the root profile has the all-important key C, which is an
array of payloads.

This class is used by payload classes to represent an array.

=head2 "CLASS" METHODS

=head3 tie @array, 'Config::Apple::Profile::Payload::Tie::Array', $validator

When this class is tied to an array, C will be called, with the class
name as the first argument.

C<$validator> is a reference to a function that will be able to validate
values that are stored to the array.  The validator will be passed the value as
the only parameter, and an untained value is expected as the return value.
If C is returned by the validator, then the value was invalid, and the
store attempt will fail.

It is suggested that the functions from
L be used.

If C<$validator> is not a valid coderef then an exception will be thrown.

=cut

sub TIEARRAY {
    my ($class, $validator) = @_;

    # This is what we'll eventually return
    my %object;

    # We'll still have an array, for convenience
    $object{array} = [];

    # We don't accept refs, only scalars
    if (ref $validator ne 'CODE') {
        die "Validator must be a function reference";
    }
    $object{validator} = $validator;

    return bless \%object, $class;
}


=head3 FETCH

Works as one would expect with a Perl array.  Returns the entry at the specified
index.  Since methods are in place to prevent storing C, as long as the
index is valid at the time of the call, you will get something back.

=cut

sub FETCH {
    my ($self, $index) = @_;

    return $self->{array}->[$index];
}


=head3 STORE

Storing items at a specific index is not allowed.  This is to help prevent
C from appearing in the array.  Instead, use C or C.

=cut

sub STORE {
    my ($self, $index, $value) = @_;
    die "Storing items at specific indexes is not allowed";
}


=head3 delete

Deleting items at a specific index is not allowed.  Perl has deprecated this.
Instead, use C, C, or C.

=cut

sub DELETE {
    my ($self, $index) = @_;
    die "Deleting items at specific indexes is not allowed";
}


=head3 scalar

Works as expected, returning the number of items in the array.

=cut

sub FETCHSIZE {
    my ($self) = @_;

    return scalar @{$self->{array}};
}


=head3 STORESIZE

Works almost as expected.  Making an array smaller will delete items off of the
end of the array.  Making the array bigger (that is, presizing) has no effect.

=cut

sub STORESIZE {
    my ($self, $count) = @_;

    return if ($count >= $self->FETCHSIZE);
    $#{$self->{array}} = $count - 1;
}


=head3 EXTEND

If Perl attempts to pre-extend the array, nothing happens.

=cut

sub EXTEND {
    my ($self, $count) = @_;
}


=head3 exists

Works as expected for a Perl array: Returns true if the specified index is
still valid for the array.

=cut

sub EXISTS {
    my ($self, $index) = @_;

    # We can use the code from Tie::StdArray, instead of rewriting it.
    return Tie::StdArray::EXISTS($self->{array}, $index);
}


=head3 CLEAR

Replacing the array with an empty list works to remove all of the entries from
the array.

=cut

sub CLEAR {
    my ($self) = @_;

    $self->{array} = [];
}


=head3 push

Works as expected for a Perl array, with two exceptions:

=over 4

=item *

C is not a valid array item.

=item *

If this is not an array of objects, then the value will be validated before
being added to the array.

=back

An exception will be thrown if either of the two points above fails.

=cut

sub PUSH {
    my $self = CORE::shift @_;

    # Run the validation
    @_ = $self->_validate(@_);

    # Let Tie::StdArray do the rest!
    return Tie::StdArray::PUSH($self->{array}, @_);
}


=head3 pop

Works as expected for a Perl array.

=cut

sub POP {
    my ($self) = @_;
    return Tie::StdArray::POP($self->{array});
}


=head3 shift

Works as expected for a Perl array.

=cut

sub SHIFT {
    my ($self) = @_;
    return Tie::StdArray::SHIFT($self->{array});
}


=head3 unshift

Works as expected for a Perl array, with two exceptions:

=over 4

=item *

C is not a valid array item.

=item *

If this is not an array of objects, then the value will be validated before
being added to the array.

=back

An exception will be thrown if either of the two points above fails.
=cut

sub UNSHIFT {
    my $self = CORE::shift @_;

    # Run the validation
    @_ = $self->_validate(@_);

    # Let Tie::StdArray do the rest!
    return Tie::StdArray::UNSHIFT($self->{array}, @_);
}


=head3 splice

Works as expected for a Perl array, but if you are using C to add
entries to the array, take note of these two exceptions:

=over 4

=item *

C is not a valid array item.

=item *

If this is not an array of objects, then the value will be validated before
being added to the array.

=back

An exception will be thrown if either of the two points above fails.

=cut

sub SPLICE {
    # We can't use Tie::Array or Tie::StdArray for this, because it expects
    # something we can't easily give.  We'll have to do it ourselves.
    my $self = CORE::shift @_;

    # We'll need the current array size for reference
    my $size = $self->FETCHSIZE;

    # Get the offset from the parameters, or default to 0
    # If offset is negative, make it relative to the array end
    my $offset = scalar @_ ? shift @_ : 0;
    $offset += $size if $offset < 0;

    # Get the length from the parameters.  If length wasn't provided, then
    # we're grabbing all of the array starting at $offset
    my $length = scalar @_ ? shift @_ : $size - $offset;

    # If there are any parameters left, then they are items to insert.
    # Validate them before continuing.
    if (scalar @_ >= 0) {
        @_ = $self->_validate(@_);
    }

    # Do the splice and return.
    return splice(@{$self->{array}}, $offset , $length, @_);
}


=head3 _validate

Given a list of items, each one will be validated, and the validated list will
be returned.

An exception will be thrown if any of the list items is undef, or if any of
the list items fails validation, or if the caller is not expecting an array.

=cut

sub _validate {
    my $self = CORE::shift @_;

    # If we are not returning an array, then die now
    if (!wantarray) {
        die "_validate expects to return an array";
    }

    # We can't use a foreach loop, because our items might be Readonly,
    # and the way Perl does aliasing means assigning to the foreach $item
    # triggers a "modification of a read-only value" error.
    my @validated_array;

    # Go through each item, making sure it is valid
    for (my $i = 0; $i < scalar @_; $i++) {
        my $item = $_[$i];

        # Undef is not a valid value
        if (!defined $item) {
            die "Adding undef items is not allowed";
        }

        # Call the validation routine
        my $validated_item = $self->{validator}->($item);

        # If $item suddenly became undef, it was invalid
        if (!defined $validated_item) {
            die "Attempting to insert invalid item";
        }

        $validated_array[$i] = $validated_item;
    } # Done checking each item

    return @validated_array;
}
