Parse::Flash::Cookie - A flash cookie parser.
use Parse::Flash::Cookie; my @content = Parse::Flash::Cookie::to_text("settings.sol"); print join("\n", @content); my $xml = Parse::Flash::Cookie::to_xml("settings.sol"); print $xml;
Local Shared Object (LSO), sometimes known as flash cookies, is a cookie-like data entity used by Adobe Flash Player. LSOs are stored as files on the local file system with the .sol extension. This module reads a Local Shared Object file and return content as a list.
Parses file and return contents as a textual list.
Parses file and return contents as a scalar containing XML representing the file's content.
The SOL files use a binary encoding that is little-endian regardless of platform architecture. This means the SOL files are platform independent, but they have to be interpreted differently on little-endian and big-endian platforms. See perlport for more.
It consists of a header and any number of elements. Both header and the elements have variable lengths.
The header has the following structure:
6 bytes (discarded)
4 bytes that should contain the string 'TSCO'
7 bytes (discarded)
1 byte that signifies the length of name (X bytes)
X bytes name
4 bytes (discarded)
Each element has the following structure:
2 bytes length of element name (Y bytes)
Y bytes element name
1 byte data type
Z bytes data (depending on the data type)
1 byte trailer
Resolve the value of object being pointed at for datatype pointer (instead of index).
