Detailed Description

template<typename CharT, typename Traits = std::char_traits<CharT>>
class redi::basic_ipstream< CharT, Traits >

Class template for Input PStreams.

Reading from an ipstream reads the command's standard output and/or standard error (depending on how the ipstream is opened) and the command's standard input is the same as that of the process that created the object, unless altered by the command itself.


Constructor & Destructor Documentation

template<typename CharT, typename Traits = std::char_traits<CharT>>
redi::basic_ipstream< CharT, Traits >::basic_ipstream ( const std::string &  command,
pmode  mode = pstdout 
) [inline]

Constructor that initialises the stream by starting a process.

Initialises the stream buffer by calling do_open() with the supplied arguments.

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 CharT, typename Traits = std::char_traits<CharT>>
redi::basic_ipstream< CharT, Traits >::basic_ipstream ( const std::string &  file,
const argv_type argv,
pmode  mode = pstdout 
) [inline]

Constructor that initialises the stream by starting a process.

Initialises the stream buffer by calling do_open() with the supplied arguments.

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 CharT, typename Traits = std::char_traits<CharT>>
redi::basic_ipstream< CharT, Traits >::~basic_ipstream (  )  [inline]

Destructor.

Closes the stream and waits for the child to exit.
