BloombergLP::bdlsb::FixedMemInput

This class, like bdlsb::FixedMemInStreamBuf, implements the input functionality of the basic_streambuf interface, using client-supplied char * memory. It has an interface identical to bdlsb::FixedMemInStreamBuf but does not inherit from bsl::streambuf. This implementation is advantageous for performance reasons, as the overhead of the initialization and virtual function calls of a bsl::streambuf can be undesirable. It is especially designed for streaming a very small amount of information from a fixed-length buffer using a bslx_genericinstream when the number of characters read from the input is guaranteed not to exceed the length of the buffer. Note that this class is not designed to be derived from.

Member Functions

NameDescription
FixedMemInput [constructor]Create a FixedMemInput using the specified buffer of the specified length. The position indicator is set to the beginning of the buffer. The behavior is undefined unless buffer != 0 && length > 0 or length == 0. Note that buffer is held but not owned.
capacity Return the size for the buffer held by this buffer, in bytes, supplied at construction.
data Return the address of the non-modifiable character buffer held by this stream buffer.
in_avail Return the number of characters available from the current read position in this stream buffer.
length Return the number of characters that can be successfully read from this stream buffer before reading traits_type::eof() -- i.e., the number of characters between the current read position and the end of this buffer.
pubseekoff Set the position indicator to the relative specified offset from the base position indicated by the specified way and return the resulting absolute position on success or pos_type(-1) on failure. Optionally specify which area of the stream buffer. The seek operation will fail if which does not include the flag bsl::ios_base::in or if the resulting absolute position is less than zero or greater than the value returned by length.
pubseekpos Set the position indicator to the specified position and return the resulting absolute position on success or pos_type(-1) on failure. Optionally specify which area of the stream buffer. The seekpos operation will fail if which does not include the flag bsl::ios_base::in or if position is less then zero or greater than the value returned by length.
pubsetbuf Reinitialize this stream buffer to use the specified character buffer having the specified length. Return a pointer providing modifiable access to this stream buffer. The behaviour is undefined unless buffer != 0 && length > 0 or length == 0. Upon reinitialization for use of the new buffer, the position indicator is set to the beginning of the buffer. Note that buffer is held but not owned.
sbumpc Return the character at the current read position from this buffer, or traits_type::eof() if the end of the buffer is reached and advance read position indicator.
sgetc Return the character at the current read position from this buffer, or traits_type::eof() if the end of the buffer is reached.
sgetn Read the specified length characters to the specified destination. Return the number of characters successfully read from this buffer, which is either equal to the length parameter or equal to the distance from the current read position to the end of the input buffer, whichever is smaller, and move the read cursor position by this amount. The behavior is undefined unless '0 <= length'.
snextc Advance the current read position and return the character at the resulting position from this buffer, or traits_type::eof() if the end of the buffer is reached.
sputbackc Move the current read position back one character if the current read position is not at the beginning of the buffer and the previous position contains the specified character c, and return that character. Otherwise, return traits_type::eof() and do not move the current read position.
sungetc Move the current read position back one character if the current read position is not at the beginning of the buffer, and return the character at the resulting current read position from this buffer. Return traits_type::eof() otherwise.
