7not be used directly.

31\membersection{wxStreamBase::wxStreamBase}\label{wxstreambasector}
32
33\func{}{wxStreamBase}{\void}
34
35Creates a dummy stream object. It doesn't do anything.
36
37
38\membersection{wxStreamBase::\destruct{wxStreamBase}}\label{wxstreambasedtor}
39
40\func{}{\destruct{wxStreamBase}}{\void}
41
42Destructor.

45\membersection{wxStreamBase::GetLength}\label{wxstreambasegetlength}
46
47\constfunc{wxFileOffset}{GetLength}{\void}
48
49Returns the length of the stream in bytes. If the length cannot be determined
50(this is always the case for socket streams for example), returns
51\texttt{wxInvalidOffset}.

58\constfunc{wxStreamError}{GetLastError}{\void}

60This function returns the last error.

64\twocolitem{{\bf wxSTREAM\_NO\_ERROR}}{No error occurred.}

66\twocolitem{{\bf wxSTREAM\_WRITE\_ERROR}}{A generic error occurred on the last write call.}
67\twocolitem{{\bf wxSTREAM\_READ\_ERROR}}{A generic error occurred on the last read call.}

71\membersection{wxStreamBase::GetSize}\label{wxstreambasegetsize}
72
73\constfunc{size\_t}{GetSize}{\void}
74
75\helpref{GetLength}{wxstreambasegetlength}
76
77This function returns the size of the stream. For example, for a file it is the
78size of the file.
79
80\wxheading{Warning}
81
82There are streams which do not have size by definition, such as socket streams.
83In that cases, GetSize returns $0$ so you should always test its return value.
84
85
86\membersection{wxStreamBase::IsOk}\label{wxstreambaseisok}
87
88\constfunc{bool}{IsOk}{\void}
89
90Returns true if no error occurred on the stream.

97\membersection{wxStreamBase::IsSeekable}\label{wxstreambaseisseekable}
98
99\constfunc{bool}{IsSeekable}{\void}
100
101Returns true if the streams supports seeking to arbitrary offsets.
102
103
104\membersection{wxStreamBase::OnSysRead}\label{wxstreambaseonsysread}
105
106\func{size\_t}{OnSysRead}{\param{void*}{ buffer}, \param{size\_t}{ bufsize}}
107
108Internal function. It is called when the stream wants to read data of the
109specified size. It should return the size that was actually read.
110
111
112\membersection{wxStreamBase::OnSysSeek}\label{wxstreambaseonsysseek}
113
114\func{off\_t}{OnSysSeek}{\param{off\_t}{ pos}, \param{wxSeekMode}{ mode}}
115
116Internal function. It is called when the stream needs to change the
117current position.
118
119
120\membersection{wxStreamBase::OnSysTell}\label{wxstreambaseonsystell}
121
122\constfunc{off\_t}{OnSysTell}{\void}
123
124Internal function. Is is called when the stream needs to know the
125real position.
126
127
128\membersection{wxStreamBase::OnSysWrite}\label{wxstreambaseonsyswrite}
129
130\func{size\_t}{OnSysWrite}{\param{void *}{buffer}, \param{size\_t}{ bufsize}}
131
132See \helpref{OnSysRead}{wxstreambaseonsysread}.
