<h2>2005-2013</h2>
<p>
<h2>NAME</h2>FBB::SharedStreambuf - streambuf interfacing to shared memory
<p>
<h2>SYNOPSIS</h2>
    <strong>#include <bobcat/sharedstreambuf></strong><br>
    Linking option: <em>-lpthread -lbobcat</em> 
<p>
<h2>DESCRIPTION</h2>
    This class implements a specialization of the <strong>std::streambuf</strong> class,
allowing stream classes (<em>std::istream, std::ostream, FBB::ISharedStream,
FBB::OSharedStream</em> and <em>FBB::SharedStream</em> to perform I/O operations on
shared memory. <strong>FBB::SharedStreambuf</strong> objects interface to an
<em>FBB::SharedStream</em> objects.
<p>
<h2>NAMESPACE</h2>
    <strong>FBB</strong><br>
    All constructors, members, operators and manipulators, mentioned in this
man-page, are defined in the namespace <strong>FBB</strong>.
<p>
<h2>INHERITS FROM</h2>
    <strong>std::streambuf, FBB::SharedEnum__</strong> (cf. <strong>sharedmemory(3bobcat)</strong> for
a description of the latter class).
<p>
<h2>CONSTRUCTORS</h2>
    <ul>
    <li> <strong>SharedStreambuf()</strong>:<br>
       The default constructor defines a stub <strong>SharedStreambuf</strong> object that
        cannot immediately be used to access shared memory. To use it, its
        member <em>setMemory</em> must first be called.
<p>
<li> <strong>SharedStreambuf(size_t maxSize, SizeUnit sizeUnit, 
            std::ios::openmode openMode = std::ios::in | std::ios::out,
            size_t access = 0600)</strong>:<br>
       This constructor creates a shared memory segment having a capacity of
        at least <em>maxSize * sizeUnit</em> bytes. By default, the shared memory
        segment is opened for reading and writing. Different from the open
        modes used for file streams, creating a shared memory stream with open
        modes <em>ios::in | ios::out</em> is OK. In this case the shared memory
        segment is created and once information has been written to the shared
        memory it can also be read again. The shared memory's access rights
        are defined by the <em>access</em> parameter, using the well-known
        (<strong>chmod</strong>(1)) way to define the access rights for the owner, the
        group and others, using octal digits. If construction succeeds the
        shared memory is ready for use. If construction fails, an
        <em>FBB::Exception</em> is thrown.
<p>
<li> <strong>SharedStreambuf(int id, std::ios::openmode openMode = std::ios::in |
        std::ios::out)</strong>:<br> 
       This constructor connects to a shared memory segment having ID
        <em>id</em>. If construction succeeds the shared memory is ready for
        use. If construction fails (e.g., no shared memory segment having ID
        <em>id</em> exists, an <em>FBB::Exception</em> is thrown. Specifying the
        <em>ios::trunc</em> flag or specifying <em>ios::out</em> without also specifying
        <em>ios::in</em> immediately clears the contents of the shared
        memory.
    )
    Copy and move constructors are not available.
<p>
<h2>OVERLOADED OPERATORS</h2>
<p>
The overloaded move and copy assignment operators are not available.
<p>
<h2>MEMBER FUNCTIONS</h2>
<p>
All members of <strong>std::streambuf</strong> and the <em>enum</em> values <em>kB, MB</em>, and
<em>GB</em>, defined by <em>FBB::SharedEnum__</em> are available.
<p>
<ul>
    <li> <strong>void clear()</strong>:<br>
       The shared memory is first locked. Next, all shared data segment are
        returned to the operating system, after which the shared memory
        segment is unlocked again. Returning from <em>clear</em> the shared memory
        The <strong>FBB::SharedMemory</strong> object is effectively re-initialized, with
        <em>offset</em> and <em>nReadable</em> returning 0.
<p>
<li> <strong>int id() const</strong>:<br>
       The ID of the shared memory segment is returned.
<p>
<li> <strong>void kill()</strong>:<br>
       Without locking the shared memory the <strong>FBB::SharedStreambuf</strong>'s shared
        memory is deleted. The <strong>FBB::SharedStreambuf</strong> object is
        unusable after returning from <em>kill</em>. 
<p>
<li> <strong>void remove()</strong>:<br>
       The shared memory is locked, and the <strong>FBB::SharedStreambuf</strong>'s shared
        memory is deleted. The <strong>FBB::SharedStreambuf</strong> object is unusable
        after returning from <em>remove</em>. 
<p>
<li> <strong>void setMemory(SharedMemory &&tmp)</strong>:<br>
       The anonymous temporary <em>SharedMemory</em> object that is passed to
        <em>setMemory</em> defines the new shared memory segment to which the
        <strong>FBB::SharedStreambuf</strong> object interfaces. It can also be called
        to reuse a <strong>FBB::SharedStreambuf</strong> object again after calling
        <em>kill</em> or <em>remove</em>.
<p>
<li> <strong>void memInfo(std::ostream &out)</strong>:<br>
       Information about the <em>SharedMemory</em> object is inserted into the
        provide <em>ostream</em> object. The IDs of the shared segments, their
        sizes, the maximum number of shared memory segments, the number of
        bytes that can be read from the shared memory, and its actual storage
        capacity, etc., are displayed. The inserted information is not
        terminated by a final newline character.
    </ul>
<p>
<h2>PROTECTED MEMBER FUNCTION</h2>
<p>
<li> <strong>void setOpenMode(std::ios::openmode flag)</strong>:<br>
       The streambuf's <em>openmode</em> is changed to the settings defined by
        <em>flag</em>. This member is used by, e.g., <em>SharedStream::open</em>, to
        adapt the <strong>FBB::SharedStreambuf</strong>'s <em>openmode</em> to the flags that
        are passed to <em>open</em>.
    </ul>
<p>

<h2>BUGS</h2>
    Note that by default exceptions thrown from within a <strong>std::stream</strong>
object are caught by the stream object, setting its <em>ios::failbit</em> flag. To
allow exceptions to leave a stream object, its <em>exceptions</em> member can be
called, e.g., using:
        <pre>
    myStream.exceptions(ios::failbit | ios::badbit | ios::eofbit);
        
</pre>
