Detailed Description

The base class for streams that write data to some kind of destination.

Input and output streams are used throughout the library - subclasses can override some or all of the virtual functions to implement their behaviour.

InputStream, MemoryOutputStream, FileOutputStream

Constructor & Destructor Documentation

OutputStream()

water::OutputStream::OutputStream ( )

protected

~OutputStream()

water::OutputStream::~OutputStream ( )

virtual

Destructor.

Some subclasses might want to do things like call flush() during their destructors.

Member Function Documentation

flush()

virtual void water::OutputStream::flush ( )

pure virtual

If the stream is using a buffer, this will ensure it gets written out to the destination.

Implemented in MemoryOutputStream, water::FileOutputStream, and water::MemoryOutputStream.

getNewLineString()

const String & water::OutputStream::getNewLineString ( ) const

inlinenoexcept

Returns the current new-line string that was set by setNewLineString().

getPosition()

virtual int64 water::OutputStream::getPosition ( )

pure virtual

Returns the stream's current position.

See also

setPosition

Implemented in MemoryOutputStream, water::FileOutputStream, and water::MemoryOutputStream.

setNewLineString()

void water::OutputStream::setNewLineString

(

const String &

newLineString

)

Sets the string to write to the stream when a new line is written. By default this will be set the value of NewLine::getDefault().

setPosition()

virtual bool water::OutputStream::setPosition ( int64 newPosition )

pure virtual

Tries to move the stream's output position.

Not all streams will be able to seek to a new position - this will return false if it fails to work.

See also

getPosition

Implemented in MemoryOutputStream, water::FileOutputStream, and water::MemoryOutputStream.

write()

virtual bool water::OutputStream::write ( const void * dataToWrite, size_t numberOfBytes )

pure virtual

Writes a block of data to the stream.

When creating a subclass of OutputStream, this is the only write method that needs to be overloaded - the base class has methods for writing other types of data which use this to do the work.

Parameters

dataToWrite	the target buffer to receive the data. This must not be null.
numberOfBytes	the number of bytes to write.

Returns

false if the write operation fails for some reason

Implemented in MemoryOutputStream, water::FileOutputStream, and water::MemoryOutputStream.

writeBool()

bool water::OutputStream::writeBool ( bool boolValue )

virtual

Writes a boolean to the stream as a single byte. This is encoded as a binary byte (not as text) with a value of 1 or 0.

Returns

false if the write operation fails for some reason

See also

InputStream::readBool

writeByte()

bool water::OutputStream::writeByte ( char byte )

virtual

Writes a single byte to the stream.

Returns

false if the write operation fails for some reason

See also

InputStream::readByte

writeCompressedInt()

bool water::OutputStream::writeCompressedInt ( int value )

virtual

Writes a condensed binary encoding of a 32-bit integer.

If you're storing a lot of integers which are unlikely to have very large values, this can save a lot of space, because values under 0xff will only take up 2 bytes, under 0xffff only 3 bytes, etc.

The format used is: number of significant bytes + up to 4 bytes in little-endian order.

Returns

false if the write operation fails for some reason

See also

InputStream::readCompressedInt

writeDouble()

bool water::OutputStream::writeDouble ( double value )

virtual

Writes a 64-bit floating point value to the stream in a binary format. The eight raw bytes of the double value are written out as a little-endian 64-bit int.

Returns

false if the write operation fails for some reason

See also

InputStream::readDouble

writeDoubleBigEndian()

bool water::OutputStream::writeDoubleBigEndian ( double value )

virtual

Writes a 64-bit floating point value to the stream in a binary format. The eight raw bytes of the double value are written out as a big-endian 64-bit int.

See also

InputStream::readDoubleBigEndian

Returns

false if the write operation fails for some reason

writeFloat()

bool water::OutputStream::writeFloat ( float value )

virtual

Writes a 32-bit floating point value to the stream in a binary format. The binary 32-bit encoding of the float is written as a little-endian int.

Returns

false if the write operation fails for some reason

See also

InputStream::readFloat

writeFloatBigEndian()

bool water::OutputStream::writeFloatBigEndian ( float value )

virtual

Writes a 32-bit floating point value to the stream in a binary format. The binary 32-bit encoding of the float is written as a big-endian int.

Returns

false if the write operation fails for some reason

See also

InputStream::readFloatBigEndian

writeFromInputStream()

int64 water::OutputStream::writeFromInputStream ( InputStream & source, int64 maxNumBytesToWrite )

virtual

Reads data from an input stream and writes it to this stream.

Parameters

source	the stream to read from
maxNumBytesToWrite	the number of bytes to read from the stream (if this is less than zero, it will keep reading until the input is exhausted)

Returns

the number of bytes written

Reimplemented in MemoryOutputStream, and water::MemoryOutputStream.

writeInt()

bool water::OutputStream::writeInt ( int value )

virtual

Writes a 32-bit integer to the stream in a little-endian byte order.

Returns

false if the write operation fails for some reason

See also

InputStream::readInt

writeInt64()

bool water::OutputStream::writeInt64 ( int64 value )

virtual

Writes a 64-bit integer to the stream in a little-endian byte order.

Returns

false if the write operation fails for some reason

See also

InputStream::readInt64

writeInt64BigEndian()

bool water::OutputStream::writeInt64BigEndian ( int64 value )

virtual

Writes a 64-bit integer to the stream in a big-endian byte order.

Returns

false if the write operation fails for some reason

See also

InputStream::readInt64BigEndian

writeIntBigEndian()

bool water::OutputStream::writeIntBigEndian ( int value )

virtual

Writes a 32-bit integer to the stream in a big-endian byte order.

Returns

false if the write operation fails for some reason

See also

InputStream::readIntBigEndian

writeRepeatedByte()

bool water::OutputStream::writeRepeatedByte ( uint8 byte, size_t numTimesToRepeat )

virtual

Writes a byte to the output stream a given number of times.

Returns

false if the write operation fails for some reason

Reimplemented in MemoryOutputStream, water::FileOutputStream, and water::MemoryOutputStream.

writeShort()

bool water::OutputStream::writeShort ( short value )

virtual

Writes a 16-bit integer to the stream in a little-endian byte order. This will write two bytes to the stream: (value & 0xff), then (value >> 8).

Returns

false if the write operation fails for some reason

See also

InputStream::readShort

writeShortBigEndian()

bool water::OutputStream::writeShortBigEndian ( short value )

virtual

Writes a 16-bit integer to the stream in a big-endian byte order. This will write two bytes to the stream: (value >> 8), then (value & 0xff).

Returns

false if the write operation fails for some reason

See also

InputStream::readShortBigEndian

writeString()

bool water::OutputStream::writeString ( const String & text )

virtual

Stores a string in the stream in a binary format.

This isn't the method to use if you're trying to append text to the end of a text-file! It's intended for storing a string so that it can be retrieved later by InputStream::readString().

It writes the string to the stream as UTF8, including the null termination character.

For appending text to a file, instead use writeText, or operator<<

Returns

false if the write operation fails for some reason

See also

InputStream::readString, writeText, operator<<

writeText()

bool water::OutputStream::writeText ( const String & text, bool asUTF16, bool writeUTF16ByteOrderMark )

virtual

Writes a string of text to the stream.

It can either write the text as UTF-8 or UTF-16, and can also add the UTF-16 byte-order-mark bytes (0xff, 0xfe) to indicate the endianness (these should only be used at the start of a file).

The method also replaces '\n' characters in the text with '\r\n'.

Returns

false if the write operation fails for some reason
