Hi,
I'm creating a scrambler plugin, that adds an istream and an ostream to the stream-chain for the mail input/output. It works well until the zlib plugin is added to the configuration. The scrambler should run before the zlib and encrypt the mail before it's compressed. Since, the plugin is named lib18_scrambler_... (and the other lib20_zlib....), that works well when a mail is received.
When a mail is read via IMAP, the plugins should handle the mail in the reverse order. So first, the zlib should decompress it and afterwards the scrambler should decrypt it.
But it seems, that they work the other way around. The scrambler istream gets compressed data as input. It's hooked in the chain of istream as the following...
static int scrambler_istream_opened(struct mail *_mail, struct istream **stream) { struct mail_private *mail = (struct mail_private *)_mail; union mail_module_context *mmail = SCRAMBLER_MAIL_CONTEXT(mail); struct istream *input, *inputs[2];
input = *stream;
*stream = scrambler_istream_create(input);
i_stream_unref(&input);
return mmail->super.istream_opened(_mail, stream);}
static void scrambler_mail_allocated(struct mail *_mail) { struct mail_private *mail = (struct mail_private *)_mail; struct mail_vfuncs *v = mail->vlast; union mail_module_context *mmail;
mmail = p_new(mail->pool, union mail_module_context, 1);
mmail->super = *v;
mail->vlast = &mmail->super;
v->istream_opened = scrambler_istream_opened;
MODULE_CONTEXT_SET_SELF(mail, scrambler_mail_module, mmail);}
How can I reverse the order of istreams? Should I use another hook or vfuns?
I'm stuck in the problem for a while now, so any help would be very welcome.
Best regards, Philipp
