wxFFile implements buffered file I/O.
This is a very small class designed to minimize the overhead of using it - in fact, there is hardly any overhead at all, but using it brings you automatic error checking and hides differences between platforms and compilers.
It wraps inside it a FILE
* handle used by standard C IO library (also known as stdio
).
Public Member Functions | |
wxFFile () | |
wxFFile (FILE *fp) | |
Opens a file with the given file pointer, which has already been opened. | |
wxFFile (const wxString &filename, const wxString &mode="r") | |
Opens a file with the given mode. | |
~wxFFile () | |
Destructor will close the file. | |
void | Attach (FILE *fp, const wxString &name=wxEmptyString) |
Attaches an existing file pointer to the wxFFile object. | |
bool | Close () |
Closes the file and returns true on success. | |
void | Detach () |
Get back a file pointer from wxFFile object -- the caller is responsible for closing the file if this descriptor is opened. | |
bool | Eof () const |
Returns true if an attempt has been made to read past the end of the file. | |
bool | Error () const |
Returns true if an error has occurred on this file, similar to the standard ferror() function. | |
bool | Flush () |
Flushes the file and returns true on success. | |
wxFileKind | GetKind () const |
Returns the type of the file. | |
const wxString & | GetName () const |
Returns the file name. | |
bool | IsOpened () const |
Returns true if the file is opened. | |
wxFileOffset | Length () const |
Returns the length of the file. | |
bool | Open (const wxString &filename, const wxString &mode="r") |
Opens the file, returning true if successful. | |
size_t | Read (void *buffer, size_t count) |
Reads the specified number of bytes into a buffer, returning the actual number read. | |
bool | ReadAll (wxString *str, const wxMBConv &conv=wxConvAuto()) |
Reads the entire contents of the file into a string. | |
bool | Seek (wxFileOffset ofs, wxSeekMode mode=wxFromStart) |
Seeks to the specified position and returns true on success. | |
bool | SeekEnd (wxFileOffset ofs=0) |
Moves the file pointer to the specified number of bytes before the end of the file and returns true on success. | |
wxFileOffset | Tell () const |
Returns the current position. | |
bool | Write (const wxString &str, const wxMBConv &conv=wxConvAuto()) |
Writes the contents of the string to the file, returns true on success. | |
size_t | Write (const void *buffer, size_t count) |
Writes the specified number of bytes from a buffer. | |
FILE * | fp () const |
Returns the file pointer associated with the file. |
wxFFile::wxFFile | ( | ) |
wxFFile::wxFFile | ( | FILE * | fp | ) |
Opens a file with the given file pointer, which has already been opened.
fp | An existing file descriptor, such as stderr. |
Opens a file with the given mode.
As there is no way to return whether the operation was successful or not from the constructor you should test the return value of IsOpened() to check that it didn't fail.
filename | The filename. |
mode | The mode in which to open the file using standard C strings. Note that you should use "b" flag if you use binary files under Windows or the results might be unexpected due to automatic newline conversion done for the text files. |
wxFFile::~wxFFile | ( | ) |
Destructor will close the file.
void wxFFile::Attach | ( | FILE * | fp, |
const wxString & | name = wxEmptyString |
||
) |
bool wxFFile::Close | ( | ) |
Closes the file and returns true on success.
void wxFFile::Detach | ( | ) |
Get back a file pointer from wxFFile object -- the caller is responsible for closing the file if this descriptor is opened.
IsOpened() will return false after call to Detach().
bool wxFFile::Eof | ( | ) | const |
Returns true if an attempt has been made to read past the end of the file.
Note that the behaviour of the file descriptor based class wxFile is different as wxFile::Eof() will return true here as soon as the last byte of the file has been read.
Also note that this method may only be called for opened files and may crash if the file is not opened.
bool wxFFile::Error | ( | ) | const |
Returns true if an error has occurred on this file, similar to the standard ferror()
function.
Please note that this method may only be called for opened files and may crash if the file is not opened.
bool wxFFile::Flush | ( | ) |
Flushes the file and returns true on success.
FILE* wxFFile::fp | ( | ) | const |
Returns the file pointer associated with the file.
wxFileKind wxFFile::GetKind | ( | ) | const |
Returns the type of the file.
const wxString& wxFFile::GetName | ( | ) | const |
bool wxFFile::IsOpened | ( | ) | const |
Returns true if the file is opened.
Most of the methods of this class may only be used for an opened file.
wxFileOffset wxFFile::Length | ( | ) | const |
Returns the length of the file.
Opens the file, returning true if successful.
filename | The filename. |
mode | The mode in which to open the file. |
size_t wxFFile::Read | ( | void * | buffer, |
size_t | count | ||
) |
Reads the specified number of bytes into a buffer, returning the actual number read.
buffer | A buffer to receive the data. |
count | The number of bytes to read. |
bool wxFFile::ReadAll | ( | wxString * | str, |
const wxMBConv & | conv = wxConvAuto() |
||
) |
Reads the entire contents of the file into a string.
str | String to read data into. |
conv | Conversion object to use in Unicode build; by default supposes that file contents is encoded in UTF-8. |
bool wxFFile::Seek | ( | wxFileOffset | ofs, |
wxSeekMode | mode = wxFromStart |
||
) |
Seeks to the specified position and returns true on success.
ofs | Offset to seek to. |
mode | One of wxFromStart, wxFromEnd, wxFromCurrent. |
bool wxFFile::SeekEnd | ( | wxFileOffset | ofs = 0 | ) |
Moves the file pointer to the specified number of bytes before the end of the file and returns true on success.
ofs | Number of bytes before the end of the file. |
wxFileOffset wxFFile::Tell | ( | ) | const |
Returns the current position.
size_t wxFFile::Write | ( | const void * | buffer, |
size_t | count | ||
) |
Writes the specified number of bytes from a buffer.
buffer | A buffer containing the data. |
count | The number of bytes to write. |
bool wxFFile::Write | ( | const wxString & | str, |
const wxMBConv & | conv = wxConvAuto() |
||
) |
Writes the contents of the string to the file, returns true on success.
The second argument is only meaningful in Unicode build of wxWidgets when conv is used to convert str to multibyte representation.
