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