12 @class wxTextInputStream
13
14 This class provides functions that reads text data using an input stream,
15 allowing you to read text, floats, and integers.
16
17 The wxTextInputStream correctly reads text files (or streams) in DOS,
18 Macintosh and Unix formats and reports a single newline char as a line
19 ending.
20
21 wxTextInputStream::operator>>() is overloaded and you can use this class
22 like a standard C++ iostream. Note, however, that the arguments are the
23 fixed size types wxUint32, wxInt32 etc and on a typical 32-bit computer,
24 none of these match to the "long" type (wxInt32 is defined as int on 32-bit
25 architectures) so that you cannot use long. To avoid problems (here and
26 elsewhere), make use of wxInt32, wxUint32 and similar types.
27
28 If you're scanning through a file using wxTextInputStream, you should check
29 for @c EOF @b before reading the next item (word / number), because
30 otherwise the last item may get lost. You should however be prepared to
31 receive an empty item (empty string / zero number) at the end of file,
32 especially on Windows systems. This is unavoidable because most (but not
33 all) files end with whitespace (i.e. usually a newline).
34
35 For example:
36
37 @code
38 wxFileInputStream input( "mytext.txt" );
39 wxTextInputStream text( input );
40 wxUint8 i1;
41 float f2;
42 wxString line;
43
44 text >> i1; // read a 8 bit integer.
45 text >> i1 >> f2; // read a 8 bit integer followed by float.
46 text >> line; // read a text line
47 @endcode
