Detailed Description

An i/o device accessing memory (Qt compatible).

There's little more to say than that this class works with a QByteArray to provide an i/o device working directly with memory. It auto-extends the array if needed etc. It's also thread-safe so multiple threads can use the i/o device at once.

Note that QBuffer ignores CR/LF translation (IO_Translate). Anything dealing with files in TnFOX does though, so the conversion can be done then.

Note:
If you don't set a buffer, an internal one is created for you which is deleted on destruction or setBuffer(). If you set your own buffer, it is never deleted by QBuffer.

Differences from QBuffer

Since there is no reference counted sharing in TnFOX, buffer() and setBuffer() return and take references.

Constructor & Destructor Documentation

FX::QBuffer::QBuffer ( FXuval  len = 0,
bool  fastbuffer = false 
) [explicit]

Constructs a new instance using an internal QByteArray of length len. Setting /em fastbuffer to true sets the internal QByteArray to use a directly managed malloc() buffer which can offer superior performance at the cost of the QByteArray no longer behaving correctly

FX::QBuffer::QBuffer ( QByteArray buffer  )  [explicit]

Constructs a new instance using buffer as the memory array.


Member Function Documentation

bool FX::QBuffer::isNull (  )  const

Returns true if the device has never been used.

QByteArray& FX::QBuffer::buffer (  )  const

Returns the byte array being addressed by this device.

void FX::QBuffer::setBuffer ( QByteArray buffer  ) 

Sets the byte array being addressed by this device. Closes the old buffer first.

virtual bool FX::QBuffer::open ( FXuint  mode  )  [virtual]

Opens the device for the specified access.

Implements FX::QIODevice.

virtual void FX::QBuffer::close (  )  [virtual]

Closes the device.

Implements FX::QIODevice.

virtual void FX::QBuffer::flush (  )  [virtual]

Flushes the device's write buffer.

Implements FX::QIODevice.

virtual FXfval FX::QBuffer::size (  )  const [virtual]

Returns the size of the data being accessed by the device.

Implements FX::QIODevice.

virtual void FX::QBuffer::truncate ( FXfval  size  )  [virtual]

Truncates the data to the specified size. Extends the file if necessary & doesn't affect the current file pointer unless it is beyond the new file size, in which case it is moved to the end of the new file

Implements FX::QIODevice.

virtual FXuval FX::QBuffer::readBlock ( char *  data,
FXuval  maxlen 
) [virtual]

Reads up to the specified quantity of bytes into the buffer, returning how much was actually read

Note:
With IO_Translate enabled, this routine regularly returns less read than maxlen (as the CR's are stripped out).

Implements FX::QIODevice.

virtual FXuval FX::QBuffer::writeBlock ( const char *  data,
FXuval  maxlen 
) [virtual]

Writes up to the specified quantity of bytes from the buffer, returning how much was actually written. Note that less being written due to error is returned as an exception, but some devices may write less in a non-error situation.

Implements FX::QIODevice.

virtual FXuval FX::QBuffer::readBlockFrom ( char *  data,
FXuval  maxlen,
FXfval  pos 
) [virtual]

Combines an at() and readBlock() together. Can be much more efficient than those two operations individually with some i/o devices, plus it's synchronous and thus threadsafe

Implements FX::QIODevice.

virtual FXuval FX::QBuffer::writeBlockTo ( FXfval  pos,
const char *  data,
FXuval  maxlen 
) [virtual]

Combines an at() and writeBlock() together. Can be much more efficient than those two operations individually with some i/o devices, plus it's synchronous and thus threadsafe

Implements FX::QIODevice.

virtual int FX::QBuffer::getch (  )  [virtual]

Reads a single byte. Returns -1 for no data found.

Reimplemented from FX::QIODevice.

virtual int FX::QBuffer::putch ( int  c  )  [virtual]

Writes a single byte.

Reimplemented from FX::QIODevice.

virtual int FX::QBuffer::ungetch ( int  c  )  [virtual]

Pushes back a byte to the read buffer.

Implements FX::QIODevice.

FXuint FX::QIODevice::flags (  )  const [inline, inherited]

Returns the flags of this device.

FXuint FX::QIODevice::mode (  )  const [inline, inherited]

Returns the mode of this device

See also:
QIODeviceOpenFlags

Returns true if the device is readable & writeable.

bool FX::QIODevice::isClosed (  )  const [inline, inherited]

Returns true if the device is closed.

bool FX::QIODevice::isOpen (  )  const [inline, inherited]

Returns true if the device is opened.

virtual bool FX::QIODevice::isSynchronous (  )  const [inline, virtual, inherited]

Returns true if this device is a synchronous device.

Reimplemented in FX::QIODeviceS, and FX::QSSLDevice.

virtual FXfval FX::QIODevice::at (  )  const [virtual, inherited]

Returns the current file pointer within the device

Note:
With IO_Translate enabled, this increments faster than the return values from either readBlock() or writeBlock()

Reimplemented in FX::QBZip2Device, FX::QFile, FX::QGZipDevice, FX::QIODeviceS, FX::QLocalPipe, FX::QMemMap, FX::QPipe, and FX::QSSLDevice.

virtual bool FX::QIODevice::at ( FXfval  newpos  )  [virtual, inherited]

Sets the current file pointer

Note:
With IO_Translate enabled, setting to anything other than a previously read at() can be hazardous.

Reimplemented in FX::QBZip2Device, FX::QFile, FX::QGZipDevice, FX::QIODeviceS, FX::QLocalPipe, FX::QMemMap, FX::QPipe, and FX::QSSLDevice.

virtual bool FX::QIODevice::atEnd (  )  const [virtual, inherited]

Returns true if there is no more data available to be read from the device.

Reimplemented in FX::QBZip2Device, FX::QFile, FX::QGZipDevice, FX::QIODeviceS, FX::QLocalPipe, FX::QMemMap, FX::QPipe, and FX::QSSLDevice.

virtual const FXACL& FX::QIODevice::permissions (  )  const [virtual, inherited]

Returns the ACL for this device.

Reimplemented in FX::QBlkSocket, FX::QFile, FX::QMemMap, FX::QPipe, and FX::QSSLDevice.

virtual void FX::QIODevice::setPermissions ( const FXACL  )  [virtual, inherited]

Sets the ACL for this device.

Reimplemented in FX::QFile, FX::QMemMap, FX::QPipe, and FX::QSSLDevice.

virtual FXuval FX::QIODevice::readLine ( char *  data,
FXuval  maxlen 
) [virtual, inherited]

Reads data until an end-of-line or maxlen is exceeded.

static UnicodeType FX::QIODevice::determineUnicodeType ( FXuchar *  data,
FXuval  len 
) throw () [static, inherited]

Looks at a sample of data and determines what kind of Unicode text it is, returning UnicodeType::NoTranslation if it isn't text. This routine isn't foolproof, but it's a good guess

static FXuval FX::QIODevice::applyCRLF ( FXuchar *FXRESTRICT  output,
const FXuchar *FXRESTRICT  input,
FXuval  outputlen,
FXuval &  inputlen,
CRLFType  crlftype = Default,
UnicodeType  utftype = NoTranslation 
) [static, inherited]

Applies CR/LF and optional UTF-x translation returning bytes output. If outputlen would run out before inputlen can be exhausted it will return early (eg; if mid newline, or mid UTF-x sequence). You should rewind processing to the difference between entrant inputlen and returned inputlen.

static FXuval FX::QIODevice::removeCRLF ( FXuchar *FXRESTRICT  output,
const FXuchar *FXRESTRICT  input,
FXuval  outputlen,
FXuval &  inputlen,
UnicodeType  utftype = NoTranslation 
) [static, inherited]

Removes CR/LF translation intelligently (ie; self-adjusts to MS-DOS, Unix and MacOS formats or any mixture of these) and can perform optional UTF-x translation, returning bytes output. If outputlen would run out before inputlen can be exhausted it will return early (eg; if mid newline, or mid UTF-x sequence). You should rewind processing to the difference between entrant inputlen and returned inputlen.

FXfval FX::QIODevice::shredData ( FXfval  offset,
FXfval  len = (FXfval)-1 
) [inherited]

Destroys the len bytes of data from offset offset into the file. Restores the file pointer afterwards and returns how much data was shredded before end of file if encountered. You must have the device open for both reading and writing for this call to succeed.

void FX::QIODevice::setFlags ( int  f  )  [inline, protected, inherited]

Sets the flags.

void FX::QIODevice::setMode ( int  m  )  [inline, protected, inherited]

Sets the mode.

void FX::QIODevice::setState ( int  s  )  [inline, protected, inherited]

Sets the state.
