#include <stream.h>

Detailed Description

Offers an abstract interface for read/write access to a sequence of bytes.

Base class for all classes which need to provide a read/write interface to data, like a FileStream, a MemoryStream, etc...

Stream objects can be accessed directly, or through stream reader and writer classes, which offer specific read/writing interfaces to streams.

◆ CanBeMapped()

bool IO::Stream::CanBeMapped ( ) const

virtual

return true if the stream provides direct memory access

This method must return true if the stream supports direct memory access through the Map()/Unmap() methods.

Reimplemented in IO::CachedStream, IO::MemoryStream, IO::ZipFileStream, and IO::FileStream.

◆ CanRead()

bool IO::Stream::CanRead ( ) const

virtual

return true if the stream supports reading

This method must return true if the derived stream class supports reading.

Reimplemented in IO::CachedStream, IO::MemoryStream, IO::ZipFileStream, and IO::FileStream.

◆ CanSeek()

bool IO::Stream::CanSeek ( ) const

virtual

return true if the stream supports seeking

This method must return true if the derived stream supports seeking.

Reimplemented in IO::CachedStream, IO::MemoryStream, IO::ZipFileStream, and IO::FileStream.

◆ CanWrite()

bool IO::Stream::CanWrite ( ) const

virtual

return true if the stream supports writing

This method must return true if the derived stream class supports writing.

Reimplemented in IO::EmbeddedMemoryStream, IO::MemoryStream, IO::ZipFileStream, and IO::FileStream.

◆ Close()

void IO::Stream::Close ( )

virtual

close the stream

Closes the stream.

Reimplemented in IO::CachedStream, IO::MemoryStream, IO::SafeFileStream, IO::ZipFileStream, and IO::FileStream.

◆ Eof()

bool IO::Stream::Eof ( ) const

virtual

return true if end-of-stream reached

Return true if the read/write cursor is at the end of the stream.

Reimplemented in IO::CachedStream, IO::MemoryStream, IO::ZipFileStream, and IO::FileStream.

◆ Flush()

void IO::Stream::Flush ( )

virtual

flush unsaved data

Flush any unsaved data.

Note that unsaved data will also be flushed automatically when the stream is closed.

Reimplemented in IO::FileStream.

◆ GetAccessMode()

Stream::AccessMode IO::Stream::GetAccessMode ( ) const

get the access mode of the stream

Get the access mode of the stream.

◆ GetAccessPattern()

Stream::AccessPattern IO::Stream::GetAccessPattern ( ) const

get the prefered access pattern

Get the currently set prefered access pattern of the stream.

◆ GetMediaType()

const MediaType & IO::Stream::GetMediaType ( ) const

get optional media type

◆ GetPosition()

Stream::Position IO::Stream::GetPosition ( ) const

virtual

get the current position of the read/write cursor

This method returns the current position of the read/write cursor.

Reimplemented in IO::CachedStream, IO::MemoryStream, IO::ZipFileStream, and IO::FileStream.

◆ GetSize()

Stream::Size IO::Stream::GetSize ( ) const

virtual

get the size of the stream in bytes

This method returns the size of the stream in bytes.

get stream URI

Get the URI of the stream as string.

◆ IsMapped()

◆ IsOpen()

bool IO::Stream::IsOpen ( ) const

return true if currently open

Return true if the stream is currently open.

◆ Map()

void * IO::Stream::Map ( )

virtual

map stream to memory

If the stream provides memory mapping, this method will return a pointer to the beginning of the stream data in memory.

The application is free to read and write to the stream through direct memory access. Special care must be taken to not read or write past the end of the mapped data (indicated by GetSize()). The normal Read()/Write() method are not valid while the stream is mapped, also the read/write cursor position will not be updated.

Reimplemented in IO::CachedStream, IO::MemoryStream, IO::ZipFileStream, and IO::FileStream.

◆ MemoryMap()

◆ Read()

Stream::Size IO::Stream::Read	(	void *	ptr,
		Size	numBytes )

For more convenient reading, attach the stream to an IO::StreamReader object. The method returns the number of bytes actually read. This method is only valid if the stream class returns true in CanRead(). Returns the number of bytes actually read from the stream, this may be less then numBytes, or 0 if end-of-stream is reached.

Reimplemented in IO::CachedStream, IO::MemoryStream, IO::ZipFileStream, and IO::FileStream.

◆ Seek()

void IO::Stream::Seek	(	Offset	offset,

This method is only supported if the stream class returns true in CanSeek().

Reimplemented in IO::CachedStream, IO::MemoryStream, IO::ZipFileStream, and IO::FileStream.

◆ SetAccessMode()

void IO::Stream::SetAccessMode ( AccessMode m )

set the access mode of the stream (default is ReadAccess)

This method sets the intended access mode of the stream.

The actual behaviour depends on the implementation of the derived class. The default is ReadWrite.

◆ SetAccessPattern()

void IO::Stream::SetAccessPattern ( AccessPattern p )

set the prefered access pattern (default is Sequential)

Set the prefered access pattern of the stream.

This can be Random or Sequential. This is an optional flag to improve performance with some stream implementations. The default is sequential. The pattern cannot be changed while the stream is open.

set optional media type of stream content

◆ SetSize()

void IO::Stream::SetSize ( Size s )

virtual

set a new size for the stream

This sets a new size for the stream.

Not all streams support this method. If the new size if smaller then the existing size, the contents will be clipped.

Reimplemented in IO::MemoryStream.

◆ SetURI()

void IO::Stream::SetURI ( const URI & u )

set stream location as URI

Set the URI of the stream as string.

The URI identifies the source resource of the stream.

virtual

unmap stream

This will unmap a memory-mapped stream.

Reimplemented in IO::CachedStream, IO::MemoryStream, IO::ZipFileStream, and IO::FileStream.

◆ Write()

void IO::Stream::Write	(	const void *	ptr,
		Size	numBytes )

virtual

directly write to the stream

Write raw data to the stream.

For more convenient writing, attach the stream to an IO::StreamWriter object. This method is only valid if the stream class returns true in CanWrite().

Reimplemented in IO::MemoryStream, and IO::FileStream.
