Detailed Description

Class RWeistream specializes the base class RWbistream to restore values previously stored by RWeostream. Please note, RWeostream must be opened before RWeistream, or the application does not function properly.

The endian streams, RWeistream and RWeostream, offer an efficient compromise between the portable streams (RWpistream, RWpostream) and the binary streams (RWbistream, RWbostream). By compensating for differences in big-endian vs. little-endian formats, as well as sizes of the various integral types, the endian streams offer portability without incurring the stream-size overhead of translating values into a series of printable characters. For example, data stored in little-endian format by an RWeostream object in a DOS program can be retrieved by an RWeistream object on any of several machines, regardless of its native endian format or the sizes of its integral types. Endian streams work properly when shared among a group of platforms that:

Share a common size and representation (apart from endian format) for types float and double.
Use two's complement format for negative integral values.

As with the portable streams, care must be taken when storing or retrieving variables of type char. Endian stream methods treat char types as numbers except where the method description explicitly states that the char is being treated, instead, as a character. See the entry for RWpostream for an example of this distinction.

Data stored in an integral type on one platform may be too large to fit into that type on a receiving platform. If so, the RWeistream class' failbit is set.

Endian streams can be interrogated as to their stream state using member functions good(), bad(), eof(), etc.

Synopsis: #include <rw/estream.h>

RWeistream estr(cin); // Construct an RWeistream using cin's streambuf

Persistence: None.

Example: #include <iostream>

#include <fstream>

#include <rw/estream.h>

int main()

{

// Open an input file

std::ifstream fstr("data.dat");

// Construct RWeistream from it

RWeistream estr(fstr);

int i;

float f;

double d;

// Restore an int that was stored in binary

if(!(estr >> i))

{

std::cout << "Run eostream.exe first!" << std::endl;

}

else

{

// Restore a float & double

estr >> f >> d;

std::cout << "The integer: " << i << std::endl;

std::cout << "The float: " << f << std::endl;

std::cout << "The double: " << d << std::endl;

}

return 0;

}

Constructor & Destructor Documentation

RWeistream::RWeistream ( std::istream & str )

Constructs an RWeistream from the std::streambuf associated with the std::istream str. For DOS, str must have been created in binary mode.

Exceptions

RWStreamErr Thrown if the data in str does not describe a valid endian stream.

RWeistream::RWeistream ( std::streambuf * sb )

Constructs an RWeistream from the std::streambuf sb. For DOS, this std::streambuf must have been created in binary mode.

Exceptions

RWStreamErr Thrown if the data in sb does not describe a valid endian stream.
