Detailed Description

Essentially a raw memory buffer which implements the abstract iFile interface.

Member Enumeration Documentation

Disposition of memory buffer at destruction time.

Enumerator:
DISPOSITION_DELETE 

Deallocate with delete[].

DISPOSITION_PLATFORM_FREE 

Deallocate with platform_free().

DISPOSITION_IGNORE 

Ignore; assume that outside agent owns buffer.

DISPOSITION_CS_FREE 

Deallocate with cs_free().

DISPOSITION_FREE 

Deallocate with platform_free() or cs_free(), depending on whether malloc override is disabled or not.

Definition at line 39 of file memfile.h.


Constructor & Destructor Documentation

csMemFile::csMemFile (  ) 

Construct an empty memory file.

csMemFile::csMemFile ( const char *  ,
size_t   
)

Construct a memory file from an existing memory buffer but do not free.

csMemFile::csMemFile ( char *  ,
size_t  ,
Disposition  = DISPOSITION_DELETE 
)

Construct a memory file from an existing memory buffer and free later.

Note that when writing to the buffer, the original buffer may be discarded and a new one created due required resizing.

csMemFile::csMemFile ( iDataBuffer buf,
bool  readOnly 
)

Construct a memory file from an existing data buffer.

Parameters:
buf The data buffer to use.
readOnly Whether to treat the buffer as read-only. If true, writing to the memory file will create a copy of the buffer. If false, changes will affect the buffer. Note that when writing to the buffer, the original buffer may be discarded and a new one created due required resizing.
virtual csMemFile::~csMemFile (  )  [virtual]

Destructor.


Member Function Documentation

virtual bool csMemFile::AtEOF (  )  [virtual]

Returns true if the stream is at end-of-file, else false.

Implements iFile.

void csMemFile::Empty (  ) 

Make file empty.

virtual void csMemFile::Flush (  )  [virtual]

Flush stream.

Implements iFile.

csPtr<iDataBuffer> csMemFile::GetAllData ( CS::Memory::iAllocator allocator  )  [virtual]

Request whole content of the file as a single data buffer.

Uses the allocator allocator if memory allocations are necessary.

Returns:
The complete data contained in the file; or an invalidated pointer if this object does not support this function (e.g. write-only VFS files). Check for an invalidated result via csRef<>::IsValid(). Do not modify the contained data!

Implements iFile.

virtual csPtr<iDataBuffer> csMemFile::GetAllData ( bool  nullterm = false  )  [virtual]

Request whole content of the file as a single data buffer.

Parameters:
nullterm Set this to true if you want a null char to be appended to the buffer (e.g. for use with string functions.)
Remarks:
Null-termination might have a performance penalty (depending upon where the file is stored.) Use only when needed.
Returns:
The complete data contained in the file; or an invalidated pointer if this object does not support this function (e.g. write-only VFS files). Check for an invalidated result via csRef<>::IsValid(). Do not modify the contained data!

Implements iFile.

virtual const char* csMemFile::GetData (  )  const [virtual]

Returns a pointer to the memory buffer.

May return 0 if memory file is empty. Use GetSize() for size info.

virtual const char* csMemFile::GetName (  )  [virtual]

Returns "#csMemFile".

Implements iFile.

csPtr<iFile> csMemFile::GetPartialView ( size_t  offset,
size_t  size = (size_t)~0 
) [virtual]

Request whole or part of the content of the file as a file object.

Parameters:
offset Offset of data to return.
size Size of data to return. If ~0 all the data starting at offset up to the end of the file is returned.
Returns:
A file object operating on a part of the original file.
Remarks:
Note that the returned file will not support writing.

Implements iFile.

virtual size_t csMemFile::GetPos (  )  [virtual]

Query current file pointer.

Implements iFile.

virtual size_t csMemFile::GetSize (  )  [virtual]

Query file size.

Implements iFile.

virtual int csMemFile::GetStatus (  )  [virtual]

Check (and clear) file last error status.

See also:
VFS_STATUS_ACCESSDENIED

Implements iFile.

virtual size_t csMemFile::Read ( char *  Data,
size_t  DataSize 
) [virtual]

Read DataSize bytes and place them into the buffer at which Data points.

Parameters:
Data Pointer to the buffer into which the data should be read. The buffer should be at least DataSize bytes in size.
DataSize Number of bytes to read.
Returns:
The number of bytes actually read. If an error occurs, zero is returned. Invoke GetStatus() to retrieve the error code.

Implements iFile.

virtual bool csMemFile::SetPos ( size_t  newpos  )  [virtual]

Set new file pointer.

Parameters:
newpos New position in file.
Returns:
True if the operation succeeded, else false.

Implements iFile.

virtual size_t csMemFile::Write ( const char *  Data,
size_t  DataSize 
) [virtual]

Write DataSize bytes from the buffer at which Data points.

Parameters:
Data Pointer to the data to be written.
DataSize Number of bytes to write.
Returns:
The number of bytes actually written. If an error occurs, zero is returned. Invoke GetStatus() to retrieve the error code.

Implements iFile.
