NAME
OLE::Storage::Io - Laola's IO interface
SYNOPSIS
use OLE::Storage::Io();
s.b.
DESCRIPTION
Note: OLE::Storage is doing IO by maintaining lists consisting of ($offset, $length) elements.
- close
-
1
||O
== $Io -> close ([\$streambuf])Destructor. Flushes cache and closes file.
- flush
-
1
== $Io -> flush ()Flush $Io cache, if caching is turned on.
- name
-
$name = $Io -> name ()
Returns name of $Io.
- open
-
$Io||
O
== open ($Startup, $name, [,$mode [,\$streambuf]])Constructor. Gives access to a file or a buffer. Default $mode is 0, that is read only. In file mode $name is a filepath. In buffer mode a reference to a buffer \$streambuf is mandatory. Errors occuring at Io methods will be reported to Startup object $Startup.
Bit Mode 0 0 read only 1 read/write 4 0 file mode 1 buffer mode
- read
-
1
||O
== $Io -> read ($offset, $len, \$buf [,$var_offset])Reads $len bytes starting at offset $offset into buffer referenced by \$buf. If $var_offset is given, buffer will be filled from this offset on.
- rw_iolist
-
1
||0
== $Io -> rw_iolist ("r"
||"w"
, \$buf, $iolistO);Read Iolist $Io into buffer $buf ("r"), or write buffer to Iolist $Io.
- size
-
$len = $Io -> size ()
Returns size of $Io in bytes.
- writable
-
1
||O
== $Io -> writable ()$Io is writable (1) or not (0).
- write
-
1
||O
== $Io -> write ($offset, $len, \$buf [,$var_offset])Writes $len bytes starting at offset $offset from buffer referenced by \$buf to $Io. If $var_offset is given, buffer will be read from this offset on.
