- Extensions allowing <code class="code">filebuf</code>s to be constructed from
- "C" types like FILE*s and file descriptors.

- <code class="code">std::filebuf</code>s from C stdio types such as
- <code class="code">FILE*</code>s and POSIX file descriptors.
- Today the recommended way to use stdio types with libstdc++
- IOStreams is via the <code class="code">stdio_filebuf</code> class (see below),
- but earlier releases provided slightly different mechanisms.
- </p><div class="itemizedlist"><ul type="disc"><li><p>3.0.x <code class="code">filebuf</code>s have another ctor with this signature:
- <code class="code">basic_filebuf(__c_file_type*, ios_base::openmode, int_type);
- </code>
- This comes in very handy in a number of places, such as
- attaching Unix sockets, pipes, and anything else which uses file
- descriptors, into the IOStream buffering classes. The three
- arguments are as follows:
- </p><div class="itemizedlist"><ul type="circle"><li><p><code class="code">__c_file_type* F </code>
- // the __c_file_type typedef usually boils down to stdio's FILE
- </p></li><li><p><code class="code">ios_base::openmode M </code>
- // same as all the other uses of openmode
- </p></li><li><p><code class="code">int_type B </code>
- // buffer size, defaults to BUFSIZ if not specified
- </p></li></ul></div><p>
- For those wanting to use file descriptors instead of FILE*'s, I
- invite you to contemplate the mysteries of C's <code class="code">fdopen()</code>.
- </p></li><li><p>In library snapshot 3.0.95 and later, <code class="code">filebuf</code>s bring
- back an old extension: the <code class="code">fd()</code> member function. The
- integer returned from this function can be used for whatever file
- descriptors can be used for on your platform. Naturally, the
- library cannot track what you do on your own with a file descriptor,
- so if you perform any I/O directly, don't expect the library to be
- aware of it.
- </p></li><li><p>Beginning with 3.1, the extra <code class="code">filebuf</code> constructor and
- the <code class="code">fd()</code> function were removed from the standard
- filebuf. Instead, <code class="code">&lt;ext/stdio_filebuf.h&gt;</code> contains
- a derived class called
- <a class="ulink" href="http://gcc.gnu.org/onlinedocs/libstdc++/latest-doxygen/class____gnu__cxx_1_1stdio__filebuf.html" target="_top"><code class="code">__gnu_cxx::stdio_filebuf</code></a>.
- This class can be constructed from a C <code class="code">FILE*</code> or a file
- descriptor, and provides the <code class="code">fd()</code> function.
- </p></li></ul></div><p>If you want to access a <code class="code">filebuf</code>'s file descriptor to
- implement file locking (e.g. using the <code class="code">fcntl()</code> system
- call) then you might be interested in Henry Suter's
- <a class="ulink" href="http://suter.home.cern.ch/suter/RWLock.html" target="_top">RWLock</a>
- class.
