pstream_common (const std::string &command, pmode mode)
Constructor that initialises the stream by starting a process.
pstream_common (const std::string &file, const argv_type &argv, pmode
mode)
Constructor that initialises the stream by starting a process.
virtual ~pstream_common ()=0
Pure virtual destructor.
void do_open (const std::string &command, pmode mode)
Start a process.
void do_open (const std::string &file, const argv_type &argv, pmode
mode)
Start a process.
Protected Attributes

The command used to start the process.
streambuf_type buf_
The stream buffer.
Detailed Description
template<typename CharT, typename Traits = std::char_traits<CharT>> class
redi::pstream_common< CharT, Traits >
Class template for common base class.
Abstract Base Class providing common functionality for basic_ipstream,
basic_opstream and basic_pstream. pstream_common manages the
basic_pstreambuf stream buffer that is used by the derived classes to
initialise an IOStream class.
Constructor & Destructor Documentation
template<typename C, typename T> redi::pstream_common< C, T
>::pstream_common () [inline, protected]
Default constructor.
Creates an uninitialised stream.
template<typename C, typename T> redi::pstream_common< C, T
>::pstream_common (const std::string & command, pmode mode) [inline,
protected]
Constructor that initialises the stream by starting a process.
Initialises the stream buffer by calling do_open( command , mode )
Parameters:
command a string containing a shell command.
mode the I/O mode to use when opening the pipe.
See also:
do_open(const std::string&, pmode)
template<typename C, typename T> redi::pstream_common< C, T
>::pstream_common (const std::string & file, const argv_type & argv,
pmode mode) [inline, protected]
Constructor that initialises the stream by starting a process.
Initialises the stream buffer by calling do_open( file , argv , mode )
Parameters:
file a string containing the pathname of a program to execute.
argv a vector of argument strings passed to the new program.
mode the I/O mode to use when opening the pipe.
See also:
do_open(const std::string&, const argv_type&, pmode)
template<typename C, typename T> redi::pstream_common< C, T
>::~pstream_common () [inline, protected, pure virtual]
Pure virtual destructor.
This is a pure virtual function to make pstream_common abstract.
Because it is the destructor it will be called by derived classes and
so must be defined. It is also protected, to discourage use of the
PStreams classes through pointers or references to the base class.

Member Function Documentation
template<typename C, typename T> void redi::pstream_common< C, T >::close
() [inline]
Close the pipe.
Calls rdbuf->close() and sets failbit on error.
template<typename C, typename T> const std::string & redi::pstream_common<
C, T >::command () const [inline]
Return the command used to initialise the stream.
Returns:
a string containing the command used to initialise the stream.
template<typename C, typename T> void redi::pstream_common< C, T >::do_open
(const std::string & file, const argv_type & argv, pmode mode) [inline,
protected]
Start a process.
Calls rdbuf()->open( file, argv, mode ) and sets failbit on error.
Parameters:
file a string containing the pathname of a program to execute.
argv a vector of argument strings passed to the new program.
mode the I/O mode to use when opening the pipe.
See also:
basic_pstreambuf::open(const std::string&, const argv_type&, pmode)
template<typename C, typename T> void redi::pstream_common< C, T >::do_open
(const std::string & command, pmode mode) [inline, protected]
Start a process.
Calls rdbuf()->open( command , mode ) and sets failbit on error.
Parameters:
command a string containing a shell command.
mode the I/O mode to use when opening the pipe.
