<h1>FBB::SharedStream(3bobcat)</h1>
<h2>libbobcat-dev_3.23.01-x.tar.gz I/O on shared memory</h2>
<h2>2005-2014</h2>


<p>
<h2>NAME</h2>FBB::SharedStream - I/O operations on shared memory
<p>
<h2>SYNOPSIS</h2>
    <strong>#include &lt;bobcat/sharedstream&gt;</strong><br>
    Linking option: <em>-lpthread -lbobcat</em> 
<p>
<h2>DESCRIPTION</h2>
<p>
This class combines the features of the <strong>std::istream</strong> and
<strong>std::ostream</strong> classes, operating on shared memory. As with <em>std::fstream</em>
objects, a <em>seekp</em> or <em>seekg</em> member call is required to switch from
writing to reading or v.v. 
<p>
As with <em>std::fstream</em> objects, <strong>FBB::SharedStream</strong> objects do not keep
separate offsets for reading and writeing: the seek-members always refer to
the (single) offset maintained by the <em>FBB::SharedMemory</em> object to which
the <strong>SharedStream</strong> object interfaces. 
<p>
So, although <em>tellg</em> and <em>tellp</em> return identical values, <em>tellg</em> should
not be called after writing to a <strong>SharedStream</strong> object, and <em>tellp</em> should
not be called after reading from a <strong>SharedStream</strong> object, as calling members
related to reading (<em>tellg</em>) after writing and v.v. put the stream in its
fail state.
<p>
<h2>NAMESPACE</h2>
    <strong>FBB</strong><br>
    All constructors, members, operators and manipulators, mentioned in this
man-page, are defined in the namespace <strong>FBB</strong>.
<p>
<h2>INHERITS FROM</h2>
    <strong>FBB::SharedStreambuf</strong> (private inheritance),<br>
    <strong>std::istream</strong>,<br>
    <strong>std::ostream</strong>,<br>
    <strong>FBB::SharedEnum__</strong> (cf. <strong>sharedmemory</strong>(3bobcat) for a description of
        this base class).
<p>
<h2>SIZEUNIT ENUMERATION</h2>
<p>
The <strong>enum SizeUnit</strong> defines the following symbolic constants:
        <ul>
        <li> <strong>kB</strong>, representing 1024 (2**10) bytes of memory;
        <li> <strong>MB</strong>, representing 1048576 (2**20 bytes of memory;
        <li> <strong>GB</strong>, representing 1073741824 (2**30) bytes of memory
        )
<p>
<h2>CONSTRUCTORS</h2>
    <ul>
    <li> <strong>SharedStream()</strong>:<br>
       The default constructor defines a stub a <strong>SharedStream</strong> object that
        cannot immediately be used to access shared memory. To use it, its
        member <em>open</em> must first be called.
<p>
<li> <strong>SharedStream(size_t maxSize, SizeUnit sizeUnit, 
            std::ios::openmode openMode = std::ios::in | std::ios::out,
            size_t access = 0600)</strong>:<br>
       This constructor creates a stream inheriting the facilities of an
        <em>std::istream</em> and <em>std::ostream</em> that interfaces to a shared
        memory segment having a capacity of at least <em>maxSize * sizeUnit</em>
        bytes. 
<p>
By default, the shared memory segment is opened for reading and
        writing. Different from the open modes used for file streams, creating
        a shared memory stream with open modes <em>ios::in | ios::out</em> is
        OK. In this case the shared memory segment is created and once
        information has been written to the shared memory it can also be read
        again. 
<p>
The shared memory's access rights are defined by the <em>access</em>
        parameter, interpreted as an octal value, using the well-known
        (<strong>chmod</strong>(1)) way to define the access rights for owner, group and
        others.
<p>
If construction fails, an <em>FBB::Exception</em> is thrown.
<p>
<li> <strong>SharedStream(int id, std::ios::openmode openMode = std::ios::in |
        std::ios::out)</strong>:<br> 
       This constructor creates a stream inheriting the facilities of an
        <em>std::istream</em> and <em>std::ostream</em> that connects to a shared memory
        segment having ID <em>id</em>. 
<p>
Specifying the <em>ios::trunc</em> flag immediately clears the contents of
        the shared memory.
<p>
An <em>FBB::Exception</em> is thrown if construction fails (e.g., no shared
        memory segment having ID <em>id</em> exists),
    </ul>
    Copy and move constructors are not available.
<p>
<h2>OVERLOADED OPERATORS</h2>
<p>
No overloaded move and copy assignment operators are available.
<p>
<h2>MEMBER FUNCTIONS</h2>
<p>
All members of <em>std::istream</em> and <em>std::ostream</em> and the <em>enum</em>
values <em>kB, MB</em>, and <em>GB</em>, defined by <em>FBB::SharedEnum__</em> are available. 
<p>
<ul>
    <li> <strong>FBB::SharedCondition attachSharedCondition(std::ios::off_type offset,
                                        std::ios::seekdir origin)</strong>:<br>
       Returns an <strong>FBB::SharedCondition</strong>(3) object, interfacing to a shared
        condition variable located at offset <em>offset</em> (relative to
        <em>origin</em>) in the <em>SharedMemory</em> object to which the
        <strong>SharedStream</strong> object interfaces.  This member does not alter the
        value returned by the stream's <em>tellg</em> and <em>tellp</em> members.
<p>
An <em>FBB::Exception</em> is thrown if the <em>FBB::SharedCondition</em> object
        could not be constructed.
<p>
<li> <strong>FBB::SharedCondition createSharedCondition()</strong>:<br>
       Returns an <strong>FBB::SharedCondition</strong>(3) object, interfacing to a newly
        created shared condition variable which is created at the current
        offset of the <em>SharedMemory</em> object to which the <strong>SharedStream</strong>
        object interfaces (or at the first offset of the next physical shared
        memory data block, cf. <strong>sharedcondition</strong>(3bobcat))</ul>.  Creating a
        <em>SharedCondition</em> object does not alter the value returned by the
        stream's <em>tellg</em> and <em>tellp</em> members.
<p>
An <em>FBB::Exception</em> is thrown if the <em>FBB::SharedCondition</em> object
        could not be constructed.
<p>
<li> <strong>int id() const</strong>:<br>
       The ID of the shared memory segment is returned.
<p>
<li> <strong>void kill()</strong>:<br>
       Without locking the shared memory first,  all shared memory is returned
        to the operating system. The <strong>FBB::SharedStream</strong> object is unusable
        after returning from <em>kill</em>. Other processes that were using the
        shared memory can continue to do so.
<p>
<li> <strong>void memInfo(std::ostream &amp;out, char const *end = "\n")</strong>:<br>
       Information about the <em>SharedMemory</em> object is inserted into the
        provide <em>ostream</em> object. The IDs of the shared segments, their
        sizes, the maximum number of shared memory segments, the number of
        bytes that can be read from the shared memory, and its actual storage
        capacity, etc., are displayed. Following the information about the
        shared memory, <em>end</em> is inserted into <em>out</em>.
<p>
<li> <strong>void open(size_t maxSize, SizeUnit sizeUnit,
            std::ios::openmode openMode = std::ios::in | std::ios::out,
            size_t access = 0600)</strong>:<br>
       This member creates a shared memory segment having a capacity of at
        least <em>maxSize * sizeUnit</em> bytes, and connects the shared memory
        segment to the <strong>FBB::SharedStream</strong>. A matching <em>close</em> member does
        not exist and is not required. 
<p>
By default, the shared memory segment is opened for reading and
        writing. Different from the open modes used for file streams, creating
        a shared memory stream with open modes <em>ios::in | ios::out</em> is
        OK. In this case the shared memory segment is created and once
        information has been written to the shared memory it can also be read
        again. 
<p>
The shared memory's access rights are defined by the <em>access</em>
        parameter, interpreted as an octal value, using the well-known
        (<strong>chmod</strong>(1)) way to define the access rights for owner, group and
        others.
<p>
If opening fails, an <em>FBB::Exception</em> is thrown.
<p>
<li> <strong>void open(int id, std::ios::openmode openMode = std::ios::in |
        std::ios::out)</strong>:<br> 
       This member connects the <strong>FBB::SharedStream</strong> object to a shared
        memory segment having ID <em>id</em>. A matching <em>close</em> member does
        not exist and is not required. If opening succeeds the shared
        memory is ready for use. 
<p>
Specifying the <em>ios::trunc</em> flag immediately clears the contents of
        the shared memory.
<p>
An <em>FBB::Exception</em> is thrown if opening fails (e.g., no shared
        memory segment having ID <em>id</em> exists). 
<p>
<li> <strong>void remove()</strong>:<br>
       The shared memory is first locked. Next, all shared memory is returned
        to the operating system. The <strong>FBB::SharedStream</strong> object is unusable
        after returning from <em>remove</em>. Other processes that were using the
        shared memory can continue to do so.
<p>
<li> <strong>bool truncate(std::streamsize offset)</strong>:<br>
       If <em>offset</em> is not exceeding the value returned by <em>seekg(0,
        std::ios::end)</em>, then this latter value is changed to <em>offset</em> and
        <em>true</em> is returned. Otherwise <em>false</em> is returned, and the value
        returned by <em>seekg</em> is not altered. If the value returned by
        <em>tellg</em> exceeded <em>offset</em>, <em>tellg</em>'s return value it is reduced
        to <em>offset</em> as well. Subsequent read operations on the shared memory
        can only succeed as long as <em>tellg</em>'s return value hasn't reached
        the value <em>offset</em>. 
    </ul>

<h2>BUGS</h2>
    Note that by default exceptions thrown from within a <strong>std::stream</strong>
object are caught by the stream object, setting its <em>ios::failbit</em> flag. To
allow exceptions to leave a stream object, its <em>exceptions</em> member can be
called, e.g., using:
        <pre>

    myStream.exceptions(ios::failbit | ios::badbit | ios::eofbit);
