Detailed Description

The default base class for using I/O streams.

This class may be subclassed, as in the case of OSRTInputStream and OSRTOutputStream or other custom implementations.

Constructor & Destructor Documentation

EXTRTMETHOD OSRTStream::OSRTStream ( ) [protected]

The default constructor.

It initializes a buffered stream. A buffered stream maintains data in memory before reading or writing to the device. This generally provides better performance than an unbuffered stream.

virtual EXTRTMETHOD OSRTStream::~OSRTStream ( ) [virtual]

Virtual destructor.

Closes the stream if it was opened.

Member Function Documentation

virtual EXTRTMETHOD int OSRTStream::close ( ) [virtual]

Closes the input or output stream and releases any system resources associated with the stream.

For output streams this function also flushes all internal buffers to the stream.

Returns:

Completion status of operation:

0 = success,
negative return value is error.

See also:: rtxStreamClose

Reimplemented in OSRTInputStream, and OSRTOutputStream.

virtual EXTRTMETHOD int OSRTStream::flush ( ) [virtual]

Flushes the buffered data to the stream.

Returns:

Completion status of operation:

0 = success,
negative return value is error.

See also:: rtxStreamFlush

Reimplemented in OSRTInputStream, and OSRTOutputStream.

virtual OSRTCtxtPtr OSRTStream::getContext ( ) [inline, virtual]

This method returns a pointer to the underlying OSRTContext object.

Returns:: A reference-counted pointer to an OSRTContext object. The OSRTContext object will not be released until all referenced-counted pointer variables go out of scope. This allows safe sharing of the context between different run-time classes.

Reimplemented in OSRTInputStream, and OSRTOutputStream.

Definition at line 101 of file OSRTStream.h.

Referenced by OSRTOutputStream::getContext(), and OSRTInputStream::getContext().

virtual OSCTXT* OSRTStream::getCtxtPtr ( ) [inline, virtual]

This method returns a pointer to the underlying OSCTXT object.

This is the structure used in calls to low-level C encode/decode functions.

Returns:: Pointer to a context (OSCTXT) structure.

Reimplemented in OSRTInputStream, and OSRTOutputStream.

Definition at line 111 of file OSRTStream.h.

Referenced by OSRTOutputStream::getCtxtPtr(), and OSRTInputStream::getCtxtPtr().

virtual char* OSRTStream::getErrorInfo	(	char *	pBuf,
		size_t &	bufSize
	)			`[inline, virtual]`

Returns error text in a memory buffer.

If buffer pointer is specified in parameters (not NULL) then error text will be copied in the passed buffer. Otherwise, this method allocates memory using the 'operator new []' function. The calling routine is responsible to free the memory by using 'operator delete []'.

Parameters:

	pBuf	A pointer to a destination buffer to obtain the error text. If NULL, dynamic buffer will be allocated.
	bufSize	A reference to buffer size. If pBuf is NULL it will receive the size of allocated dynamic buffer.

Returns:: A pointer to a buffer with error text. If pBuf is not NULL, the return pointer will be equal to it. Otherwise, returns newly allocated buffer with error text. NULL, if error occurred.

Reimplemented in OSRTInputStream, and OSRTOutputStream.

Definition at line 142 of file OSRTStream.h.

virtual char* OSRTStream::getErrorInfo ( ) [inline, virtual]

Returns error text in a dynamic memory buffer.

Buffer will be allocated by 'operator new []'. The calling routine is responsible to free the memory by using 'operator delete []'.
