# <a name="Package &lt;code&gt;TWiki::Store::_RcsFile="></a> Package =TWiki::Store::RcsFile

This class is PACKAGE PRIVATE to Store, and should never be used from anywhere else. Base class of implementations of stores that manipulate RCS format files.

The general contract of the methods on this class and its subclasses calls for errors to be signalled by Error::Simple exceptions.

Refer to Store.pm for models of usage.

## <a name="ClassMethod &lt;strong&gt;new&lt;/strong&gt; ($session,$web"></a> [[ClassMethod]] **new** `($session,$web,$topic,$attachment)`

Constructor. There is one object per stored file.

Note that $web, $topic and $attachment must be untainted!

## <a name="ObjectMethod &lt;strong&gt;get_RevisionInfo*"></a><a name="ObjectMethod *get_RevisionInfo&lt;/strong&gt; "></a> [[ObjectMethod]] **getRevisionInfo** `($version) -> ($rev,$date,$user,$comment)`

- `$version` if 0 or undef, or out of range (version number &gt; number of revs) will return info about the latest revision.

Returns (rev, date, user, comment) where rev is the number of the rev for which the info was recovered, date is the date of that rev (epoch s), user is the login name of the user who saved that rev, and comment is the comment associated with the rev.

Designed to be overridden by subclasses, which can call up to this method if file-based rev info is required.

## <a name="ObjectMethod &lt;strong&gt;get_LatestRevision"></a> [[ObjectMethod]] \*getLatestRevision `() -> $text`

Get the text of the most recent revision

## <a name="ObjectMethod &lt;strong&gt;get_LatestRevision"></a> [[ObjectMethod]] \*getLatestRevisionTime `() -> $text`

Get the time of the most recent revision

## <a name="ObjectMethod &lt;strong&gt;read_MetaData&lt;/strong&gt; ($n"></a> [[ObjectMethod]] **readMetaData** `($name) -> $text`

Get a meta-data block for this web

## <a name="ObjectMethod &lt;strong&gt;get_WorkArea&lt;/strong&gt; ($ke"></a> [[ObjectMethod]] **getWorkArea** `($key) -> $directorypath`

Gets a private directory uniquely identified by $key. The directory is intended as a work area for plugins.

The standard is a directory named the same as "key" under $TWiki::cfg\{RCS\}\{WorkAreaDir\}

## <a name="ObjectMethod &lt;strong&gt;save_MetaData&lt;/strong&gt; ($w"></a> [[ObjectMethod]] **saveMetaData** `($web,$name) -> $text`

Write a named meta-data string. If web is given the meta-data is stored alongside a web.

## <a name="ObjectMethod &lt;strong&gt;get_TopicNames&lt;/strong&gt; ()"></a> [[ObjectMethod]] **getTopicNames** `() -> @topics`

Get list of all topics in a web

- `$web` - Web name, required, e.g. `'Sandbox'`

Return a topic list, e.g. `( 'WebChanges',  'WebHome', 'WebIndex', 'WebNotify' )`

## <a name="ObjectMethod &lt;strong&gt;get_WebNames&lt;/strong&gt; () -"></a> [[ObjectMethod]] **getWebNames** `() -> @webs`

Gets a list of names of subwebs in the current web

## <a name="ObjectMethod &lt;strong&gt;search_InWebConten"></a> [[ObjectMethod]] \*searchInWebContent `($searchString,$web,\@topics,\%options) -> \%map`

Search for a string in the content of a web. The search must be over all content and all formatted meta-data, though the latter search type is deprecated (use searchMetaData instead).

- `$searchString` - the search string, in egrep format if regex
- `$web` - The web to search in
- `\@topics` - reference to a list of topics to search
- `\%options` - reference to an options hash

The `\%options` hash may contain the following options:

- `type` - if `regex` will perform a egrep-syntax RE search (default '')
- `casesensitive` - false to ignore case (defaulkt true)
- `files_without_match` - true to return files only (default false)

The return value is a reference to a hash which maps each matching topic name to a list of the lines in that topic that matched the search, as would be returned by 'grep'. If `files_without_match` is specified, it will return on the first match in each topic (i.e. it will return only one match per topic, and will not return matching lines).

Move a web.

## <a name="ObjectMethod &lt;strong&gt;getRevision&lt;/strong&gt; ($ver"></a> [[ObjectMethod]] **getRevision** `($version) -> $text`
