NAME
       Archive::Tar::File - a subclass for in-memory extracted file from
       Archive::Tar
SYNOPSIS
           my @items = $tar->get_files;
           print $_->name, ' ', $_->size, "\n" for @items;
           print $object->get_content;
           $object->replace_content('new content');
           $object->rename( 'new/full/path/to/file.c' );
DESCRIPTION
       Archive::Tar::Files provides a neat little object layer for in-memory
       extracted files. It's mostly used internally in Archive::Tar to tidy up
       the code, but there's no reason users shouldn't use this API as well.
   Accessors
       A lot of the methods in this package are accessors to the various
       fields in the tar header:
       name
           The file's name
       mode
           The file's mode
       uid The user id owning the file
       gid The group id owning the file
       size
           File size in bytes
       mtime
           Modification time. Adjusted to mac-time on MacOS if required
       chksum
           Checksum field for the tar header
       type
           File type -- numeric, but comparable to exported constants -- see
           Archive::Tar's documentation
       linkname
           If the file is a symlink, the file it's pointing to
       magic
           Tar magic string -- not useful for most users
       version
           Tar version string -- not useful for most users
       uname
           The user name that owns the file
       gname
           The group name that owns the file
       devmajor
           Device major number in case of a special file
       devminor
           Device minor number in case of a special file
       prefix
           Any directory to prefix to the extraction path, if any
       raw Raw tar header -- not useful for most users
Methods
   Archive::Tar::File->new( file => $path )
       Returns a new Archive::Tar::File object from an existing file.
       Returns undef on failure.
   Archive::Tar::File->new( data => $path, $data, $opt )
       Returns a new Archive::Tar::File object from data.
       $path defines the file name (which need not exist), $data the file
       contents, and $opt is a reference to a hash of attributes which may be
       used to override the default attributes (fields in the tar header),
       which are described above in the Accessors section.
       Returns undef on failure.
   Archive::Tar::File->new( chunk => $chunk )
       Returns a new Archive::Tar::File object from a raw 512-byte tar archive
       chunk.
       Returns undef on failure.
   $bool = $file->extract( [ $alternative_name ] )
       Extract this object, optionally to an alternative name.
       See "Archive::Tar->extract_file" for details.
       Returns true on success and false on failure.
   $path = $file->full_path
       Returns the full path from the tar header; this is basically a
       concatenation of the "prefix" and "name" fields.
   $bool = $file->validate
       Done by Archive::Tar internally when reading the tar file: validate the
       header against the checksum to ensure integer tar file.
       Returns true on success, false on failure
   $bool = $file->has_content
       Returns a boolean to indicate whether the current object has content.
       Some special files like directories and so on never will have any
       content. This method is mainly to make sure you don't get warnings for
       using uninitialized values when looking at an object's content.
   $content = $file->get_content
       Returns the current content for the in-memory file
   $cref = $file->get_content_by_ref
       Returns the current content for the in-memory file as a scalar
       reference. Normal users won't need this, but it will save memory if you
       are dealing with very large data files in your tar archive, since it
       will pass the contents by reference, rather than make a copy of it
       first.
   $bool = $file->replace_content( $content )
       Replace the current content of the file with the new content. This only
       affects the in-memory archive, not the on-disk version until you write
       it.
       Returns true on success, false on failure.
   $bool = $file->rename( $new_name )
       Rename the current file to $new_name.
       Note that you must specify a Unix path for $new_name, since per tar
       standard, all files in the archive must be Unix paths.
       Returns true on success and false on failure.
   $bool = $file->chmod $mode)
       Change mode of $file to $mode. The mode can be a string or a number
       which is interpreted as octal whether or not a leading 0 is given.
       Returns true on success and false on failure.
   $bool = $file->chown( $user [, $group])
       Change owner of $file to $user. If a $group is given that is changed as
       well. You can also pass a single parameter with a colon separating the
       use and group as in 'root:wheel'.
       Returns true on success and false on failure.
Convenience methods
       To quickly check the type of a "Archive::Tar::File" object, you can use
       the following methods:
       $file->is_file
           Returns true if the file is of type "file"
       $file->is_dir
           Returns true if the file is of type "dir"
       $file->is_hardlink
           Returns true if the file is of type "hardlink"
       $file->is_symlink
           Returns true if the file is of type "symlink"
       $file->is_chardev
           Returns true if the file is of type "chardev"
       $file->is_blockdev
           Returns true if the file is of type "blockdev"
       $file->is_fifo
           Returns true if the file is of type "fifo"
       $file->is_socket
           Returns true if the file is of type "socket"
       $file->is_longlink
           Returns true if the file is of type "LongLink".  Should not happen
           after a successful "read".
       $file->is_label
           Returns true if the file is of type "Label".  Should not happen
           after a successful "read".
       $file->is_unknown
           Returns true if the file type is "unknown"
