NAME¶
FBB::Ofdstream - Output Stream initialized by a File Descriptor
SYNOPSIS¶
#include <bobcat/ofdstream>
DESCRIPTION¶
FBB::OFdStream objects may be used to insert information into a device
whose file descriptor is available.
File descriptors are not defined within the context of
C++, but they can
be used on operating systems that support the concept. Realize that using file
descriptors introduces operating system dependencies.
Note that
sockets can be used as file descriptors.
NAMESPACE¶
FBB
All constructors, members, operators and manipulators, mentioned in this
man-page, are defined in the namespace
FBB.
INHERITS FROM¶
std::ostream
CONSTRUCTORS¶
- o
- OFdStream(int fd, size_t n = 1):
The constructor initializes the object to write to descriptor fd,
using a buffer of size n, by default having size 1. The copy
constructor is not available.
MEMBER FUNCTIONS¶
All members of
std::ostream are available, as
FBB::OFdStream
inherits from this class. There are no additional members.
EXAMPLE¶
See the
clientsocket(3bobcat) man-page for an example showing how to use
OFdStream.
FILES¶
bobcat/ofdstream - defines the class interface
SEE ALSO¶
bobcat(7),
ifdstream(3bobcat),
ofdstreambuf(3bobcat)
BUGS¶
The
OFdStream object uses a
OFdStreamBuf for its
std::streambuf. This buffer is associated with the file descriptor
passed to
OFdStream’s constructor. When the
OFdStream
object goes out of scope the device (file, socket, etc.) to which the file
descriptor that was passed to
OFdStream’s constructor is
not closed.
