  31 \membersection{wxStreamBase::wxStreamBase}\label{wxstreambasector}
  32
  33 \func{}{wxStreamBase}{\void}
  34
  35 Creates 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
  42 Destructor.
  43
  44
  45 \membersection{wxStreamBase::GetLength}\label{wxstreambasegetlength}
  46
  47 \constfunc{wxFileOffset}{GetLength}{\void}
  48
  49 Returns 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}.

  57
  58 \constfunc{wxStreamError}{GetLastError}{\void}
  59
  60 This function returns the last error.

  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
  77 This function returns the size of the stream. For example, for a file it is the
  78 size of the file.
  79
  80 \wxheading{Warning}
  81
  82 There are streams which do not have size by definition, such as socket streams.
  83 In 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
  90 Returns true if no error occurred on the stream.

  97 \membersection{wxStreamBase::IsSeekable}\label{wxstreambaseisseekable}
  98
  99 \constfunc{bool}{IsSeekable}{\void}
 100
 101 Returns 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
 108 Internal function. It is called when the stream wants to read data of the
 109 specified 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
 116 Internal function. It is called when the stream needs to change the
 117 current position.
 118
 119
 120 \membersection{wxStreamBase::OnSysTell}\label{wxstreambaseonsystell}
 121
 122 \constfunc{off\_t}{OnSysTell}{\void}
 123
 124 Internal function. Is is called when the stream needs to know the
 125 real position.
 126
 127
 128 \membersection{wxStreamBase::OnSysWrite}\label{wxstreambaseonsyswrite}
 129
 130 \func{size\_t}{OnSysWrite}{\param{void *}{buffer}, \param{size\_t}{ bufsize}}
 131
 132 See \helpref{OnSysRead}{wxstreambaseonsysread}.
