1 | \section{\class{wxDataInputStream}}\label{wxdatainputstream} | |
2 | ||
3 | This class provides functions that read binary data types in a | |
4 | portable way. Data can be read in either big-endian or litte-endian | |
5 | format, little-endian being the default on all architectures. | |
6 | ||
7 | If you want to read data from text files (or streams) use | |
8 | \helpref{wxTextInputStream}{wxtextinputstream} instead. | |
9 | ||
10 | The >> operator is overloaded and you can use this class like a standard C++ iostream. | |
11 | Note, however, that the arguments are the fixed size types wxUint32, wxInt32 etc | |
12 | and on a typical 32-bit computer, none of these match to the "long" type (wxInt32 | |
13 | is defined as signed int on 32-bit architectures) so that you cannot use long. To avoid | |
14 | problems (here and elsewhere), make use of the wxInt32, wxUint32, etc types. | |
15 | ||
16 | For example: | |
17 | ||
18 | \begin{verbatim} | |
19 | wxFileInputStream input( "mytext.dat" ); | |
20 | wxDataInputStream store( input ); | |
21 | wxUint8 i1; | |
22 | float f2; | |
23 | wxString line; | |
24 | ||
25 | store >> i1; // read a 8 bit integer. | |
26 | store >> i1 >> f2; // read a 8 bit integer followed by float. | |
27 | store >> line; // read a text line | |
28 | \end{verbatim} | |
29 | ||

42 | \membersection{wxDataInputStream::wxDataInputStream}\label{wxdatainputstreamconstr} | |
43 | ||
44 | \func{}{wxDataInputStream}{\param{wxInputStream\&}{ stream}} | |
45 | ||
46 | Constructs a datastream object from an input stream. Only read methods will | |
47 | be available. | |
48 | ||
49 | \wxheading{Parameters} | |
50 | ||
51 | \docparam{stream}{The input stream.} | |
52 | ||
53 | \membersection{wxDataInputStream::\destruct{wxDataInputStream}} | |
54 | ||
55 | \func{}{\destruct{wxDataInputStream}}{\void} | |
56 | ||
57 | Destroys the wxDataInputStream object. | |
58 | ||
59 | \membersection{wxDataInputStream::BigEndianOrdered} | |
60 | ||
61 | \func{void}{BigEndianOrdered}{\param{bool}{ be\_order}} | |
62 | ||
63 | If {\it be\_order} is TRUE, all data will be read in big-endian | |
64 | order, such as written by programs on a big endian architecture | |
65 | (e.g. Sparc) or written by Java-Streams (which always use | |
66 | big-endian order). | |
67 | ||
68 | \membersection{wxDataInputStream::Read8} | |
69 | ||
70 | \func{wxUint8}{Read8}{\void} | |
71 | ||
72 | Reads a single byte from the stream. | |
73 | ||
74 | \membersection{wxDataInputStream::Read16} | |
75 | ||
76 | \func{wxUint16}{Read16}{\void} | |
77 | ||
78 | Reads a 16 bit integer from the stream. | |
79 | ||
80 | \membersection{wxDataInputStream::Read32} | |
81 | ||
82 | \func{wxUint32}{Read32}{\void} | |
83 | ||
84 | Reads a 32 bit integer from the stream. | |
85 | ||
86 | \membersection{wxDataInputStream::ReadDouble} | |
87 | ||
88 | \func{double}{ReadDouble}{\void} | |
89 | ||
90 | Reads a double (IEEE encoded) from the stream. | |
91 | ||
92 | \membersection{wxDataInputStream::ReadString} | |
93 | ||
94 | \func{wxString}{ReadString}{\void} | |
95 | ||
96 | Reads a string from a stream. Actually, this function first reads a long integer | |
97 | specifying the length of the string (without the last null character) and then | |
98 | reads the string. | |
