TIO

Base input/output type

To create your own stream types, you should extend TStream and implement at least these methods.

You should also make sure your stream can handle multiple calls to the Close method.

Methods

Method Eof:Int()

Get stream end of file status

For seekable streams such as file streams, Eof generally returns True if the file position equals the file size. This means that no more bytes can be read from the stream. However, it may still be possible to write bytes, in which case the file will 'grow'.

For communication type streams such as socket streams, Eof returns True if the stream has been shut down for some reason - either locally or by the remote host. In this case, no more bytes can be read from or written to the stream.

Returns

True for end of file reached, otherwise False


Method Pos:Long()

Get position of seekable stream

Returns

Stream position as a byte offset, or -1 if stream is not seekable


Method Size:Long()

Get size of seekable stream

Returns

Size, in bytes, of seekable stream, or 0 if stream is not seekable


Method Seek:Long( pos:Long, whence:Int = SEEK_SET_ )

Seek to position in seekable stream

Returns

New stream position, or -1 if stream is not seekable


Method Flush()

Flush stream

Flushes any internal stream buffers.


Method Close()

Close stream

Closes the stream after flushing any internal stream buffers.


Method Read:Long( buf:Byte Ptr,count:Long )

Read at least 1 byte from a stream

This method may 'block' if it is not possible to read at least one byte due to IO buffering.

If this method returns 0, the stream has reached end of file.

Returns

Number of bytes successfully read


Method Write:Long( buf:Byte Ptr,count:Long )

Write at least 1 byte to a stream

This method may 'block' if it is not possible to write at least one byte due to IO buffering.

If this method returns 0, the stream has reached end of file.

Returns

Number of bytes successfully written


Method SetSize:Int(size:Long)

Sets the size of the stream to size bytes.

Only a few stream types support resizing.

Returns

True if the stream was able to be resized, False otherwise.
