module IO::Buffered

Overview

The IO::Buffered mixin enhances the IO module with input/output buffering.

The buffering behaviour can be turned on/off with the #sync= method.

Additionally, several methods, like #gets, are implemented in a more efficient way.

Instance Method Detail

def close #

Flushes and closes the underlying IO.


[View source]
def flush #

Flushes any buffered data and the underlying IO. Returns self.


[View source]
def flush_on_newline=(flush_on_newline) #

Turns on/off flushing the underlying IO when a newline is written.


[View source]
def flush_on_newline? #

Determines if this IO flushes automatically when a newline is written.


[View source]
def read(slice : Slice(UInt8)) #

Buffered implementation of IO#read(slice).


[View source]
def rewind #

Rewinds the underlying IO. Returns self.


[View source]
def sync=(sync) #

Turns on/off IO buffering. When sync is set to true, no buffering will be done (that is, writing to this IO is immediately synced to the underlying IO).


[View source]
def sync? #

Determines if this IO does buffering. If true, no buffering is done.


[View source]
abstract def unbuffered_close #

Closes the wrapped IO.


[View source]
abstract def unbuffered_flush #

Flushes the wrapped IO.


[View source]
abstract def unbuffered_read(slice : Slice(UInt8)) #

Reads at most slice.size bytes from the wrapped IO into slice. Returns the number of bytes read.


[View source]
abstract def unbuffered_rewind #

Rewinds the wrapped IO.


[View source]
abstract def unbuffered_write(slice : Slice(UInt8)) #

Writes at most slice.size bytes from slice into the wrapped IO. Returns the number of bytes written.


[View source]
def write(slice : Slice(UInt8)) #

Buffered implementation of IO#write(slice).
