Detailed Description

Binary input file.

This class enables binary files to be read, while taking into account Endian problems (see BinaryStream).

Definition at line 175 of file b_stream.h.

Constructor & Destructor Documentation

◆ BinaryInputStream() [1/2]

GEO::BinaryInputStream::BinaryInputStream ( const std::string &  file_name,
int  stream_endian = GEO_BIG_ENDIAN 
)

Creates a new binary input stream.

This prepares the stream to read data from file file_name. Data is supposed to be stored with the given endianness stream_endian.

Parameters
[in]file_namepath to the file to read
[in]stream_endianthe endianness of the stream:
  • GEO_LITTLE_ENDIAN makes the stream little-endian
  • GEO_BIG_ENDIAN makes the stream big-endian (the default)

◆ BinaryInputStream() [2/2]

GEO::BinaryInputStream::BinaryInputStream ( std::istream &  input,
int  stream_endian = GEO_BIG_ENDIAN 
)

Creates a new binary input stream.

This prepares the BinaryInputStream to read data from std::istream input. Data will be stored with the given endianness stream_endian.

Parameters
[in]inputthe input stream to read from
[in]stream_endianthe endianness of the stream:
  • GEO_LITTLE_ENDIAN makes the stream little-endian
  • GEO_BIG_ENDIAN makes the stream big-endian (the default)

◆ ~BinaryInputStream()

GEO::BinaryInputStream::~BinaryInputStream ( )

Deletes the input stream.

This closes any associated std::istream and closes any associated file.

Member Function Documentation

◆ begin_record()

void GEO::BinaryInputStream::begin_record ( )

Starts reading a data record.

FORTRAN data files are structured into records, bounded by two integers indicating the size of the record. These two functions enable these integers to be read, and to use them as a validity check. If they differ, subsequent calls to OK() return false. Note that if set_had_record_markers() has been called with false, the records are supposed to be continuously written in the file (without markers).

◆ end_record()

void GEO::BinaryInputStream::end_record ( )

Stops reading a data record.

This verifies that the record data is properly enclosed with the same marker, that is: the marker at the current stream position matches the marker found at the beginning of the record (see begin_record()).

◆ more()

bool GEO::BinaryInputStream::more ( ) const

Checks if there are more bytes to read.

Return values
trueif the stream is not at end-of-file
falseotherwise

◆ OK()

bool GEO::BinaryInputStream::OK ( ) const

Gets the status of the stream.

Return values
trueif the stream is valid
falseif an error occurred

◆ operator>>()

template<class T >
BinaryInputStream& GEO::BinaryInputStream::operator>> ( T &  x)
inline

Reads a single element.

Reads an element of type T from the stream and stores it in x. Type T must be a numeric type, other types are not supported.

Parameters
[in]xa reference to a element of type T
Template Parameters
Tthe type of the element to read. This must be a numeric type
Returns
a reference to this stream

Definition at line 237 of file b_stream.h.

◆ read() [1/4]

BinaryInputStream& GEO::BinaryInputStream::read ( char *  data,
size_t  n,
ItemSize< 1 >   
)
inlineprotected

Reads an array of elements of size 1.

Parameters
[in]dataan array of elements of size 1
[in]nthe number of elements to read
Returns
a reference to this stream

Definition at line 372 of file b_stream.h.

◆ read() [2/4]

BinaryInputStream& GEO::BinaryInputStream::read ( char *  data,
size_t  n,
ItemSize< 2 >   
)
protected

Reads an array of elements of size 2.

Parameters
[in]dataan array of elements of size 2
[in]nthe number of elements to read
Returns
a reference to this stream

◆ read() [3/4]

BinaryInputStream& GEO::BinaryInputStream::read ( char *  data,
size_t  n,
ItemSize< 4 >   
)
protected

Reads an array of elements of size 4.

Parameters
[in]dataan array of elements of size 4
[in]nthe number of elements to read

size_t  n,
ItemSize< 8 >   
)
protected

Reads an array of elements of size 8.

Parameters
[in]dataan array of elements of size 8
[in]nthe number of elements to read
Returns

◆ read_array()

template<class T >
BinaryInputStream& GEO::BinaryInputStream::read_array ( T *  data,
size_t  n 
)
inline

Reads an array of elements.

Reads n elements of type T from the stream and stores them in array pointed to by data. The array must be large enough to receive n elements. Type T must be a numeric type, other types are not supported.

Parameters
[in]dataan array of at least n elements of type T.
[in]nnumber of items to read
Template Parameters
Tthe type of the elements to read
Returns
a reference to this stream

◆ read_opaque_data() [1/2]

BinaryInputStream& GEO::BinaryInputStream::read_opaque_data ( void *  ptr,
size_t  n 
)
inline

Reads opaque data.

Reads n bytes from the stream and stores them in the byte array ptr. Bytes read from the stream are stored without conversion in the array ptr.

Parameters
[in]ptran array of bytes
[in]nnumber of bytes to read
Returns
a reference to this stream

Definition at line 253 of file b_stream.h.

◆ read_opaque_data() [2/2]

BinaryInputStream& GEO::BinaryInputStream::read_opaque_data ( void *  ptr,
size_t  size,
size_t  n 
)
inline

Reads opaque data.

Reads n elements of size bytes from the stream and stores them in the byte array ptr. Bytes read from the stream are stored without conversion in the array ptr.

Parameters
[in]ptran array of bytes
[in]sizesize of the elements to read
[in]nnumber of elements to read
Returns
a reference to this stream

Definition at line 268 of file b_stream.h.

◆ read_record()

template<class T >
BinaryInputStream& GEO::BinaryInputStream::read_record ( T *  data,
size_t  n 
)
inline

Reads an array of elements in a record.

Reads n elements of type T enclosed in a data record from the stream and stores them in array pointed to by data. The array must be large enough to receive n elements. Type T must be a numeric type, other types are not supported.
