Detailed Description

A more natural C++ "unixstream" class for use by non-threaded applications. C++ "fstream" style unixstream class.

This class behaves a lot more like fstream and similar classes.

Constructor & Destructor Documentation

ost::unixstream::unixstream (   )

Construct an unopened "tcpstream" object.

ost::unixstream::unixstream (  const char *  pathname, int  buffer = 512 )

Construct and "open" (connect) the tcp stream to a remote socket. Parameters: pathname  pathname to socket file buffer  size for streaming (optional).

ost::unixstream::unixstream (  UnixSocket &  unixsock, int  buffer = 512 )

Construct and "accept" (connect) the tcp stream through a server. Parameters: unixsock  socket to accept from. buffer  size for streaming (optional).

Member Function Documentation

void ost::unixstream::close (  void   )

Close the active tcp stream connection.

void ost::unixstream::open (  UnixSocket &  unixsock, int  buffer = 512 )

Open a tcp stream connection by accepting a tcp socket. Parameters: unixsock  socket to accept from. buffer  size for streaming (optional)

void ost::unixstream::open (  const char *  pathname, int  buffer = 512 )  [inline]

Open a tcp stream connection. This will close the currently active connection first. Parameters: pathname  pathname to socket file buffer  size for streaming (optional)

bool ost::unixstream::operator! (   )  const

Test to see if stream is open. Reimplemented from ost::Socket.
