Hi all,
I want to create my own File in memory that I can pipe output
to and read it in from another part of the program. I dont
want to physically write data to disk, just store it in
memory.
I've been trawling the documentation for the past while and
the closest I can find is std.stdio.tmpfile(), however this
always opens in "rb" and therefore isnt useful for me (I
think!)
The reason I need to be able to make a File is because I want
to send these IOstreams to std.processes spawnProcess().
Maybe I'm just looking in the wrong place?
Thanks in advance!
I should have specified, this is std.stdio.File, not
std.stream.File.
Is this helpful?
import std.stdio;
import std.process;
void main() {
auto p = pipe();
p.write("This is test\n");
p.close();
foreach( line; p.readEnd.byLine ) {
writeln(line);
}
}
Thanks
Dan
It does!
I see the Pipeing functionality in std.process now. Guess I
should have looked harder :)
Thanks.
