Detailed Description

The file abstract base class. This class represents some file from which the user can read, write, etc. Do not just think of this as only a file on disk. A file could be virtually anything from which can be read and to which can be written. Like a stream, but with more functionalities. For example the file could also be a specified section in your systems main memory. Another example could be the file being some sort of network stream.

Constructor & Destructor Documentation

◆ File()

MCore::File::File ( )

inline

The constructor.

◆ ~File()

virtual MCore::File::~File ( )

inlinevirtual

The destructor.

Member Function Documentation

◆ Close()

virtual void MCore::File::Close ( )

pure virtual

Close the file.

Implemented in MCore::DiskFile, and MCore::MemoryFile.

◆ Flush()

virtual void MCore::File::Flush ( )

pure virtual

Flush the file. All cached (not yet written) data will be forced to written when calling this method.

Implemented in MCore::DiskFile, and MCore::MemoryFile.

◆ Forward()

virtual bool MCore::File::Forward ( size_t numBytes )

pure virtual

Seek ahead a given number of bytes. This can be used to skip a given number of upcoming bytes in the file.

Parameters

numBytes The number of bytes to seek ahead.

Returns: Returns true when succeeded or false when an error occured (for example when we where trying to read past the end of the file).

Implemented in MCore::DiskFile, and MCore::MemoryFile.

◆ GetFileSize()

virtual size_t MCore::File::GetFileSize ( ) const

pure virtual

Returns the size of this file in bytes.

Returns: The filesize in bytes.

Implemented in MCore::DiskFile, and MCore::MemoryFile.

◆ GetIsEOF()

virtual bool MCore::File::GetIsEOF ( ) const

pure virtual

Check if we reached the end of the file or not.

Returns: Returns true when we have returned the end of the file. Otherwise false is returned.

Implemented in MCore::DiskFile, and MCore::MemoryFile.

◆ GetIsOpen()

virtual bool MCore::File::GetIsOpen ( ) const

pure virtual

Check if the file has been opened already.

Returns: Returns true when the file has been opened, otherwise false.

Implemented in MCore::DiskFile, and MCore::MemoryFile.

◆ GetNextByte()

virtual uint8 MCore::File::GetNextByte ( )

pure virtual

Reads and returns the next byte/character in the file. So this will increase the position in the file with one.

Returns: The character or byte read.

Implemented in MCore::DiskFile, and MCore::MemoryFile.

◆ GetPos()

virtual size_t MCore::File::GetPos ( ) const

pure virtual

Returns the position in the file.

Returns: The offset in the file in bytes.

Implemented in MCore::DiskFile, and MCore::MemoryFile.

◆ Read()

virtual size_t MCore::File::Read	(	void *	data,
		size_t	length
	)

pure virtual

Read a given amount of data from the file.

Parameters

data	The pointer where to store the read data.
length	The size in bytes of the data to read.

Returns: Returns the number of read bytes.

Reimplemented from MCore::Stream.

Implemented in MCore::DiskFile, and MCore::MemoryFile.

◆ Seek()

virtual bool MCore::File::Seek ( size_t offset )

pure virtual

Seek to a given byte position in the file, where 0 would be the beginning of the file. So we're talking about the absolute position in the file. After successfully executing this method the method GetPos will return the given offset.

Parameters

offset The offset in bytes (the position) in the file to seek to.

Returns: Returns true when successfully moved to the given position in the file, otherwise false.

Implemented in MCore::DiskFile, and MCore::MemoryFile.

◆ Write()

virtual size_t MCore::File::Write	(	const void *	data,
		size_t	length
	)

pure virtual

Writes a given amount of data to the file.

Parameters

data	The pointer to the data to write.
length	The size in bytes of the data to write.

Returns: Returns the number of written bytes.

Reimplemented from MCore::Stream.

Implemented in MCore::DiskFile, and MCore::MemoryFile.

◆ WriteByte()

virtual bool MCore::File::WriteByte ( uint8 value )

pure virtual

Write a character or byte in the file.

Parameters

value The character or byte to write.

Returns: Returns true when successfully written, otherwise false is returned.

Implemented in MCore::DiskFile, and MCore::MemoryFile.
