FBB::IFdStream(3bobcat) 				   File Descriptor Input Stream 				   FBB::IFdStream(3bobcat)

NAME
       FBB::Ifdstream - Input Stream initialized by a File Descriptor

SYNOPSIS
       #include <bobcat/ifdstream>

DESCRIPTION
       FBB::IFdStream objects may be used to extract information from a device whose file descriptor is available.

       File  descriptors  are  not  defined within the context of C++, but they can be used on operating systems that support the concept. Realize
       that using file descriptors introduces operating system dependencies.

       Note that sockets can be used as file descriptors.

NAMESPACE
       FBB
       All constructors, members, operators and manipulators, mentioned in this man-page, are defined in the namespace FBB.

INHERITS FROM
       std::istream

CONSTRUCTORS
       o      IFdStream(int fd, size_t n = 1):
	      The constructor initializes the object to read from descriptor fd, using a buffer of size n, by default having  size  1.	 The  copy
	      constructor is not available.

MEMBER FUNCTIONS
       All members of std::istream are available, as FBB::IFdStream inherits from this class. There are no additional members.

EXAMPLE
       See the clientsocket(3bobcat) man-page for an example showing how to use IFdStream.

FILES

SEE ALSO

BUGS
       The  IFdStream  object uses a IFdStreamBuf for its std::streambuf. This buffer is associated with the file descriptor passed to IFdStream's
       constructor. When the IFdStream object goes out of scope the device (file, socket, etc.) to which the file descriptor that  was	passed	to
       IFdStream's constructor is not closed.
