Detailed Description

Data input stream implements GInputStream and includes functions for reading structured data directly from a binary input stream.

Structures

Convenient Construction

gDataInputStream is the equivalent of gDataInputStreamNew.

Enums and Flags

GDataStreamByteOrder

GDataStreamByteOrder is used to ensure proper endianness of streaming data sources across various machine architectures.

big-endian: Selects Big Endian byte order.
little-endian: Selects Little Endian byte order.
host-endian: Selects endianness based on host machine's architecture.

GDataStreamNewlineType

GDataStreamNewlineType is used when checking for or setting the line endings for a given file.

lf: Selects "LF" line endings, common on most modern UNIX platforms.
cr: Selects "CR" line endings.
cr-lf: Selects "CR, LF" line ending, common on Microsoft Windows.
any: Automatically try to handle any line ending type.

Properties

byte-order [GDataStreamByteOrder : Read / Write]: The byte order. Default value: G_DATA_STREAM_BYTE_ORDER_BIG_ENDIAN
newline-type [GDataStreamNewlineType : Read / Write]: The accepted types of line ending. Default value: G_DATA_STREAM_NEWLINE_TYPE_LF
