+ Inheritance diagram for wxFilterInputStream:

Detailed Description

A filter stream has the capability of a normal stream but it can be placed on top of another stream.

So, for example, it can uncompress or decrypt the data which are read from another stream and pass it to the requester.

Note
The interface of this class is the same as that of wxInputStream. Only a constructor differs and it is documented below.

Library:  wxBase

Public Member Functions

 wxFilterInputStream (wxInputStream &stream)
 Initializes a "filter" stream.
 
 wxFilterInputStream (wxInputStream *stream)
 Initializes a "filter" stream.
 
- Public Member Functions inherited from wxInputStream
 wxInputStream ()
 Creates a dummy input stream.
 
virtual ~wxInputStream ()
 Destructor.
 
virtual bool CanRead () const
 Returns true if some data is available in the stream right now, so that calling Read() wouldn't block.
 
virtual bool Eof () const
 Returns true after an attempt has been made to read past the end of the stream.
 
int GetC ()
 Returns the first character in the input queue and removes it, blocking until it appears if necessary.
 
virtual size_t LastRead () const
 Returns the last number of bytes read.
 
virtual char Peek ()
 Returns the first character in the input queue without removing it.
 
virtual wxInputStreamRead (void *buffer, size_t size)
 Reads the specified amount of bytes and stores the data in buffer.
 
wxInputStreamRead (wxOutputStream &stream_out)
 Reads data from the input queue and stores it in the specified output stream.
 
bool ReadAll (void *buffer, size_t size)
 Reads exactly the specified number of bytes into the buffer.
 
virtual wxFileOffset SeekI (wxFileOffset pos, wxSeekMode mode=wxFromStart)
 Changes the stream current position.
 
virtual wxFileOffset TellI () const
 Returns the current stream position or wxInvalidOffset if it's not available (e.g.
 
size_t Ungetch (const void *buffer, size_t size)
 This function is only useful in read mode.
 
bool Ungetch (char c)
 This function acts like the previous one except that it takes only one character: it is sometimes shorter to use than the generic function.
 
- Public Member Functions inherited from wxStreamBase
 wxStreamBase ()
 Creates a dummy stream object.
 
virtual ~wxStreamBase ()
 Destructor.
 
wxStreamError GetLastError () const
 This function returns the last error.
 
virtual wxFileOffset GetLength () const
 Returns the length of the stream in bytes.
 
virtual size_t GetSize () const
 This function returns the size of the stream.
 
virtual bool IsOk () const
 Returns true if no error occurred on the stream.
 
virtual bool IsSeekable () const
 Returns true if the stream supports seeking to arbitrary offsets.
 
void Reset (wxStreamError error=wxSTREAM_NO_ERROR)
 Resets the stream state.
 
bool operator! () const
 Returns the opposite of IsOk().

Constructor & Destructor Documentation

wxFilterInputStream::wxFilterInputStream ( wxInputStream stream)

Initializes a "filter" stream.

If the parent stream is passed as a pointer then the new filter stream takes ownership of it. If it is passed by reference then it does not.
