.PP 
.SH "NAME"
FBB::Ofdstream \- Output Stream initialized by a File Descriptor
.PP 
.SH "SYNOPSIS"
\fB#include <bobcat/ofdstream>\fP
.br 

.PP 
.SH "DESCRIPTION"
\fBFBB::OFdStream\fP objects may be used to insert information into a device
whose file descriptor is available\&.
.PP 
File descriptors are not defined within the context of \fBC++\fP,
but they can be used on operating systems that support the concept\&. Realize
that using file descriptors introduces operating system dependencies\&.
.PP 
Note that \fIsockets\fP can be used as file descriptors\&.
.PP 
.SH "NAMESPACE"
\fBFBB\fP
.br 
All constructors, members, operators and manipulators, mentioned in this
man\-page, are defined in the namespace \fBFBB\fP\&.
.PP 
.SH "INHERITS FROM"
\fBstd::ostream\fP
.PP 
.SH "CONSTRUCTORS"
.IP o 
\fBOFdStream(int fd, size_t n = 1)\fP:
.br 
The constructor initializes the object to write to descriptor \fIfd\fP,
using a buffer of size \fIn\fP, by default having size 1\&. 

.PP 
Copy and move constructors (and assignment operators) are not available\&.
.PP 
.SH "MEMBER FUNCTIONS"
All members of \fBstd::ostream\fP are available, as \fBFBB::OFdStream\fP
inherits from this class\&. There are no additional members\&.
.PP 
.SH "EXAMPLE"
See the \fBclientsocket\fP(3bobcat) man\-page for an example showing how to
use \fIOFdStream\fP\&.
.PP 
.SH "FILES"
\fIbobcat/ofdstream\fP \- defines the class interface
.PP 
.SH "SEE ALSO"
\fBbobcat\fP(7), \fBifdstream\fP(3bobcat), \fBofdbuf\fP(3bobcat)
.PP 
.SH "BUGS"
The \fIOFdStream\fP object uses a \fIOFdStreamBuf\fP for its
\fIstd::streambuf\fP\&. This buffer is associated with the file descriptor passed
to \fIOFdStream\fP\(cq\&s constructor\&. When the \fIOFdStream\fP object goes out of
scope the device (file, socket, etc\&.) to which the file descriptor that was
passed to \fIOFdStream\fP\(cq\&s constructor is \fInot\fP closed\&.
