31
32 \func{}{wxStreamBase}{\void}
33
34 Creates a dummy stream object. It doesn't do anything.
35
36 \membersection{wxStreamBase::\destruct{wxStreamBase}}
37
38 \func{}{\destruct{wxStreamBase}}{\void}
39
40 Destructor.
41
42 \membersection{wxStreamBase::LastError}\label{wxstreambaselasterror}
43
44 \constfunc{wxStreamError}{LastError}{\void}
45
46 This function returns the last error.

49 \twocolitem{{\bf wxSTREAM\_NO\_ERROR}}{No error occured.}
50 \twocolitem{{\bf wxSTREAM\_EOF}}{An End-Of-File occured.}
51 \twocolitem{{\bf wxSTREAM\_WRITE\_ERROR}}{A generic error occured on the last write call.}
52 \twocolitem{{\bf wxSTREAM\_READ\_ERROR}}{A generic error occured on the last read call.}

55 \membersection{wxStreamBase::OnSysRead}\label{wxstreambaseonsysread}
56
57 \func{size\_t}{OnSysRead}{\param{void*}{ buffer}, \param{size\_t}{ bufsize}}
58
59 Internal function. It is called when the stream wants to read data of the
60 specified size. It should return the size that was actually read.
61
62 \membersection{wxStreamBase::OnSysSeek}
63
64 \func{off\_t}{OnSysSeek}{\param{off\_t}{ pos}, \param{wxSeekMode}{ mode}}
65
66 Internal function. It is called when the stream needs to change the
67 current position.
68
69 \membersection{wxStreamBase::OnSysTell}
70
71 \constfunc{off\_t}{OnSysTell}{\void}
72
73 Internal function. Is is called when the stream needs to know the
74 real position.
75
76 \membersection{wxStreamBase::OnSysWrite}
77
78 \func{size\_t}{OnSysWrite}{\param{void *}{buffer}, \param{size\_t}{ bufsize}}
79
80 See \helpref{OnSysRead}{wxstreambaseonsysread}.
81
82 \membersection{wxStreamBase::GetSize}\label{wxstreambasegetsize}
83
84 \constfunc{size\_t}{GetSize}{\void}
85
86 This function returns the size of the stream. For example, for a file it is the size of
87 the file).
88
89 \wxheading{Warning}
90
91 There are streams which do not have size by definition, such as socket streams.
92 In that cases, GetSize returns an invalid size represented by
93
94 \begin{verbatim}
95 ~(size_t)0
96 \end{verbatim}
