22 * fmemopen() - "my" version of a string stream
23 * Hanno Mueller, kontakt@hanno.de
26 * I needed fmemopen() for an application that I currently work on,
27 * but couldn't find it in libio. The following snippet of code is an
28 * attempt to implement what glibc's documentation describes.
32 * I already see some potential problems:
34 * - I never used the "original" fmemopen(). I am sure that "my"
35 * fmemopen() behaves differently than the original version.
37 * - The documentation doesn't say wether a string stream allows
38 * seeks. I checked the old fmemopen implementation in glibc's stdio
39 * directory, wasn't quite able to see what is going on in that
40 * source, but as far as I understand there was no seek there. For
41 * my application, I needed fseek() and ftell(), so it's here.
43 * - "append" mode and fseek(p, SEEK_END) have two different ideas
44 * about the "end" of the stream.
46 * As described in the documentation, when opening the file in
47 * "append" mode, the position pointer will be set to the first null
48 * character of the string buffer (yet the buffer may already
49 * contain more data). For fseek(), the last byte of the buffer is
50 * used as the end of the stream.
52 * - It is unclear to me what the documentation tries to say when it
53 * explains what happens when you use fmemopen with a NULL
54 * buffer.
56 * Quote: "fmemopen [then] allocates an array SIZE bytes long. This
57 * is really only useful if you are going to write things to the
58 * buffer and then read them back in again."
60 * What does that mean if the original fmemopen() did not allow
61 * seeking? How do you read what you just wrote without seeking back
62 * to the beginning of the stream?
64 * - I think there should be a second version of fmemopen() that does
65 * not add null characters for each write. (At least in my
66 * application, I am not actually using strings but binary data and
67 * so I don't need the stream to add null characters on its own.)
