Detailed Description

A base class for different types of streams.

Warning

Even though the OFCopying protocol is implemented, it does not return an independent copy of the stream, but instead retains it. This is so that the stream can be used as a key for a dictionary, so context can be associated with a stream. Using a stream in more than one thread at the same time is not thread-safe, even if copy was called to create one "instance" for every thread!

Note

If you want to subclass this, override lowlevelReadIntoBuffer:length: (OFStream), lowlevelWriteBuffer:length: (OFStream) and lowlevelIsAtEndOfStream (OFStream), but nothing else, as those are are the methods that do the actual work. OFStream uses those for all other methods and does all the caching and other stuff for you. If you override these methods without the lowlevel prefix, you will break caching and get broken results!

Method Documentation

asyncReadIntoBuffer:exactLength:

- (void) asyncReadIntoBuffer:		(void *)	buffer
exactLength:		(size_t)	length

Asynchronously reads exactly the specified length bytes from the stream into a buffer.

Unlike asyncReadIntoBuffer:length:, this method does not call the method when less than the specified length has been read - instead, it waits until it got exactly the specified length, the stream has ended or an exception occurred.

Note

The stream must conform to OFReadyForReadingObserving in order for this to work!

Parameters

buffer	The buffer into which the data is read
length	The length of the data that should be read. The buffer must be at least this big!

asyncReadIntoBuffer:exactLength:block:

- (void) asyncReadIntoBuffer:		(void *)	buffer
exactLength:		(size_t)	length
block:		(OFStreamAsyncReadBlock)	block

Asynchronously reads exactly the specified length bytes from the stream into a buffer.

Unlike asyncReadIntoBuffer:length:block:, this method does not invoke the block when less than the specified length has been read - instead, it waits until it got exactly the specified length, the stream has ended or an exception occurred.

Note

The stream must conform to OFReadyForReadingObserving in order for this to work!

Parameters

buffer	The buffer into which the data is read
length	The length of the data that should be read. The buffer must be at least this big!
block	The block to call when the data has been received. If the block returns true, it will be called again with the same buffer and exact length when more data has been received. If you want the next block in the queue to handle the data received next, you need to return false from the block.

asyncReadIntoBuffer:exactLength:runLoopMode:

- (void) asyncReadIntoBuffer:		(void *)	buffer
exactLength:		(size_t)	length
runLoopMode:		(OFRunLoopMode)	runLoopMode

Asynchronously reads exactly the specified length bytes from the stream into a buffer.

Unlike asyncReadIntoBuffer:length:, this method does not call the method when less than the specified length has been read - instead, it waits until it got exactly the specified length, the stream has ended or an exception occurred.

Note

The stream must conform to OFReadyForReadingObserving in order for this to work!

Parameters

buffer	The buffer into which the data is read
length	The length of the data that should be read. The buffer must be at least this big!
runLoopMode	The run loop mode in which to perform the async read

asyncReadIntoBuffer:exactLength:runLoopMode:block:

- (void) asyncReadIntoBuffer:		(void *)	buffer
exactLength:		(size_t)	length
runLoopMode:		(OFRunLoopMode)	runLoopMode
block:		(OFStreamAsyncReadBlock)	block

Asynchronously reads exactly the specified length bytes from the stream into a buffer.

Unlike asyncReadIntoBuffer:length:block:, this method does not invoke the block when less than the specified length has been read - instead, it waits until it got exactly the specified length, the stream has ended or an exception occurred.

Note

The stream must conform to OFReadyForReadingObserving in order for this to work!

Parameters

buffer	The buffer into which the data is read
length	The length of the data that should be read. The buffer must be at least this big!
runLoopMode	The run loop mode in which to perform the async read
block	The block to call when the data has been received. If the block returns true, it will be called again with the same buffer and exact length when more data has been received. If you want the next block in the queue to handle the data received next, you need to return false from the block.

asyncReadIntoBuffer:length:

- (void) asyncReadIntoBuffer:		(void *)	buffer
length:		(size_t)	length

Asynchronously reads at most length bytes from the stream into a buffer.

On network streams, this might read less than the specified number of bytes. If you want to read exactly the specified number of bytes, use asyncReadIntoBuffer:exactLength:. Note that a read can even return 0 bytes - this does not necessarily mean that the stream ended, so you still need to check atEndOfStream. Do not assume that the stream ended just because a read returned 0 bytes - some streams do internal processing that has a result of 0 bytes.

Note

The stream must conform to OFReadyForReadingObserving in order for this to work!

Parameters

buffer	The buffer into which the data is read. The buffer must not be freed before the async read completed!
length	The length of the data that should be read at most. The buffer must be at least this big!

asyncReadIntoBuffer:length:block:

- (void) asyncReadIntoBuffer:		(void *)	buffer
length:		(size_t)	length
block:		(OFStreamAsyncReadBlock)	block

Asynchronously reads at most ref length bytes from the stream into a buffer.

On network streams, this might read less than the specified number of bytes. If you want to read exactly the specified number of bytes, use asyncReadIntoBuffer:exactLength:block:. Note that a read can even return 0 bytes - this does not necessarily mean that the stream ended, so you still need to check atEndOfStream. Do not assume that the stream ended just because a read returned 0 bytes - some streams do internal processing that has a result of 0 bytes.

Note

The stream must conform to OFReadyForReadingObserving in order for this to work!

Parameters

buffer	The buffer into which the data is read. The buffer must not be freed before the async read completed!
length	The length of the data that should be read at most. The buffer must be at least this big!
block	The block to call when the data has been received. If the block returns true, it will be called again with the same buffer and maximum length when more data has been received. If you want the next block in the queue to handle the data received next, you need to return false from the block.

Parameters

buffer	The buffer into which the data is read
length	The length of the data that should be read. The buffer must be at least this big!

On network streams, this might read less than the specified number of bytes. If you want to read exactly the specified number of bytes, use readIntoBuffer:exactLength:. Note that a read can even return 0 bytes - this does not necessarily mean that the stream ended, so you still need to check atEndOfStream. Do not assume that the stream ended just because a read returned 0 bytes - some streams do internal processing that has a result of 0 bytes.

Parameters

buffer	The buffer into which the data is read
length	The length of the data that should be read at most. The buffer must be at least this big!

Returns

The number of bytes read

unreadFromBuffer:length:

- (void) unreadFromBuffer:		(const void *)	buffer
length:		(size_t)	length

"Reverses" a read operation, meaning the bytes from the specified buffer will be returned on the next read operation.

This is useful for reading into a buffer, parsing the data and then giving back the data which does not need to be processed. This can be used to optimize situations in which the length of the data that needs to be processed is not known before all data has been processed - for example in decompression - in which it would otherwise be necessary to read byte by byte to avoid consuming bytes that need to be parsed by something else - for example the data descriptor in a ZIP archive which immediately follows the compressed data.

If the stream is a file, this method does not change any data in the file.

If the stream is seekable, a seek operation will discard any data which was unread.

Parameters

buffer	The buffer to unread
length	The length of the buffer to unread
