Constructor

`new(pipe:Pipe)`

Methods

Inherited Variables

Defined by Input

`@:keepbigEndian:Bool`

Endianness (word byte order) used when reading numbers.

If true, big-endian is used, otherwise little-endian is used.

Inherited Methods

Defined by Input

`@:keepclose():Void`

Close the input source.

Behaviour while reading after calling this method is unspecified.

`@:keepread(nbytes:Int):Bytes`

Read and return nbytes bytes.

`@:has_untyped@:keepreadBytes(s:Bytes, pos:Int, len:Int):Int`

Read len bytes and write them into s to the position specified by pos.

Returns the actual length of read data that can be smaller than len.

See readFullBytes that tries to read the exact amount of specified bytes.

`@:keepreadDouble():Float`

Read a 64-bit double-precision floating point number.

Endianness is specified by the bigEndian property.

`@:keepreadFloat():Float`

Read a 32-bit floating point number.

Endianness is specified by the bigEndian property.

`@:keepreadFullBytes(s:Bytes, pos:Int, len:Int):Void`

Read len bytes and write them into s to the position specified by pos.

Unlike readBytes, this method tries to read the exact len amount of bytes.

`@:keepreadInt16():Int`

Read a 16-bit signed integer.

Endianness is specified by the bigEndian property.

`@:keepreadInt24():Int`

Read a 24-bit signed integer.

Endianness is specified by the bigEndian property.

`@:keepreadInt32():Int`

Read a 32-bit signed integer.

Endianness is specified by the bigEndian property.

`@:keepreadInt8():Int`

Read a 8-bit signed integer.

`@:keepreadLine():String`

Read a line of text separated by CR and/or LF bytes.

The CR/LF characters are not included in the resulting string.

`@:keepreadString(len:Int):String`

Read and len bytes as a string.

`@:keepreadUInt16():Int`

Read a 16-bit unsigned integer.

Endianness is specified by the bigEndian property.

`@:keepreadUInt24():Int`

Read a 24-bit unsigned integer.

Endianness is specified by the bigEndian property.

`@:keepreadUntil(end:Int):String`

Read a string until a character code specified by end is occurred.

The final character is not included in the resulting string.
