 *  This module describes the decoder layers provided by libFLAC.
 *
 * The stream decoder can be used to decode complete streams either from
 * the client via callbacks, or directly from a file, depending on how
 * it is initialized.  When decoding via callbacks, the client provides
 * callbacks for reading FLAC data and writing decoded samples, and
 * handling metadata and errors.  If the client also supplies seek-related
 * callback, the decoder function for sample-accurate seeking within the
 * FLAC input is also available.  When decoding from a file, the client
 * needs only supply a filename or open \c FILE* and write/metadata/error
 * callbacks; the rest of the callbacks are supplied internally.  For more
 * info see the \link flac_stream_decoder stream decoder \endlink module.

/** \defgroup flac_stream_decoder FLAC/stream_decoder.h: stream decoder interface
 *  \ingroup flac_decoder
 *
 *  \brief
 *  This module contains the functions which implement the stream
 *  decoder.
 *
 * The stream decoder can decode native FLAC, and optionally Ogg FLAC
 * (check FLAC_API_SUPPORTS_OGG_FLAC) streams and files.
 *
 * The basic usage of this decoder is as follows:
 * - The program creates an instance of a decoder using
 *   FLAC__stream_decoder_new().
 * - The program overrides the default settings using
 *   FLAC__stream_decoder_set_*() functions.
 * - The program initializes the instance to validate the settings and
 *   prepare for decoding using
 *   - FLAC__stream_decoder_init_stream() or FLAC__stream_decoder_init_FILE()
 *     or FLAC__stream_decoder_init_file() for native FLAC,
 *   - FLAC__stream_decoder_init_ogg_stream() or FLAC__stream_decoder_init_ogg_FILE()
 *     or FLAC__stream_decoder_init_ogg_file() for Ogg FLAC
 * - The program calls the FLAC__stream_decoder_process_*() functions
 *   to decode data, which subsequently calls the callbacks.
 * - The program finishes the decoding with FLAC__stream_decoder_finish(),
 *   which flushes the input and output and resets the decoder to the
 *   uninitialized state.
 * - The instance may be used again or deleted with
 *   FLAC__stream_decoder_delete().
 *
 * In more detail, the program will create a new instance by calling
 * FLAC__stream_decoder_new(), then call FLAC__stream_decoder_set_*()
 * functions to override the default decoder options, and call
 * one of the FLAC__stream_decoder_init_*() functions.
 *
 * There are three initialization functions for native FLAC, one for
 * setting up the decoder to decode FLAC data from the client via
 * callbacks, and two for decoding directly from a FLAC file.
 *
 * For decoding via callbacks, use FLAC__stream_decoder_init_stream().
 * You must also supply several callbacks for handling I/O.  Some (like
 * seeking) are optional, depending on the capabilities of the input.
 *
 * For decoding directly from a file, use FLAC__stream_decoder_init_FILE()
 * or FLAC__stream_decoder_init_file().  Then you must only supply an open
 * \c FILE* or filename and fewer callbacks; the decoder will handle
 * the other callbacks internally.
 *
 * There are three similarly-named init functions for decoding from Ogg
 * FLAC streams.  Check \c FLAC_API_SUPPORTS_OGG_FLAC to find out if the
 * library has been built with Ogg support.
 *
 * Once the decoder is initialized, your program will call one of several
 * functions to start the decoding process:
 *
 * - FLAC__stream_decoder_process_single() - Tells the decoder to process at
 *   most one metadata block or audio frame and return, calling either the
 *   metadata callback or write callback, respectively, once.  If the decoder
 *   loses sync it will return with only the error callback being called.
 * - FLAC__stream_decoder_process_until_end_of_metadata() - Tells the decoder
 *   to process the stream from the current location and stop upon reaching
 *   the first audio frame.  The client will get one metadata, write, or error
 *   callback per metadata block, audio frame, or sync error, respectively.
 * - FLAC__stream_decoder_process_until_end_of_stream() - Tells the decoder
 *   to process the stream from the current location until the read callback
 *   returns FLAC__STREAM_DECODER_READ_STATUS_END_OF_STREAM or
 *   FLAC__STREAM_DECODER_READ_STATUS_ABORT.  The client will get one metadata,
 *   write, or error callback per metadata block, audio frame, or sync error,
 *   respectively.
 *
 * When the decoder has finished decoding (normally or through an abort),
 * the instance is finished by calling FLAC__stream_decoder_finish(), which
 * ensures the decoder is in the correct state and frees memory.  Then the
 * instance may be deleted with FLAC__stream_decoder_delete() or initialized
 * again to decode another stream.
 *
 * Seeking is exposed through the FLAC__stream_decoder_seek_absolute() method.
 * At any point after the stream decoder has been initialized, the client can
 * call this function to seek to an exact sample within the stream.
 * Subsequently, the first time the write callback is called it will be
 * passed a (possibly partial) block starting at that sample.
 *
 * If the client cannot seek via the callback interface provided, but still
 * has another way of seeking, it can flush the decoder using
 * FLAC__stream_decoder_flush() and start feeding data from the new position
 * through the read callback.
 *
 * The stream decoder also provides MD5 signature checking.  If this is
 * turned on before initialization, FLAC__stream_decoder_finish() will
 * report when the decoded MD5 signature does not match the one stored
 * in the STREAMINFO block.  MD5 checking is automatically turned off
 * (until the next FLAC__stream_decoder_reset()) if there is no signature
 * in the STREAMINFO block or when a seek is attempted.
 *
 * The FLAC__stream_decoder_set_metadata_*() functions deserve special
 * attention.  By default, the decoder only calls the metadata_callback for
 * the STREAMINFO block.  These functions allow you to tell the decoder
 * explicitly which blocks to parse and return via the metadata_callback
 * and/or which to skip.  Use a FLAC__stream_decoder_set_metadata_respond_all(),
 * FLAC__stream_decoder_set_metadata_ignore() ... or FLAC__stream_decoder_set_metadata_ignore_all(),
 * FLAC__stream_decoder_set_metadata_respond() ... sequence to exactly specify
 * which blocks to return.  Remember that metadata blocks can potentially
 * be big (for example, cover art) so filtering out the ones you don't
 * use can reduce the memory requirements of the decoder.  Also note the
 * special forms FLAC__stream_decoder_set_metadata_respond_application(id)
 * and FLAC__stream_decoder_set_metadata_ignore_application(id) for
 * filtering APPLICATION blocks based on the application ID.
 *
 * STREAMINFO and SEEKTABLE blocks are always parsed and used internally, but
 * they still can legally be filtered from the metadata_callback.
 *
 * \note
 * The "set" functions may only be called when the decoder is in the
 * state FLAC__STREAM_DECODER_UNINITIALIZED, i.e. after
 * FLAC__stream_decoder_new() or FLAC__stream_decoder_finish(), but
 * before FLAC__stream_decoder_init_*().  If this is the case they will
 * return \c true, otherwise \c false.
 *
 * \note
 * FLAC__stream_decoder_finish() resets all settings to the constructor
 * defaults, including the callbacks.
