In the documentation for .Stream~supplier, it says: Returns a Supplier object for the stream containing the remaining stream lines and linenumber positions for the stream.
Containing the *remaining" stream lines, led me to expect that after reading 3 lines of a 18 line file, and then getting a supplier object, the supplier object would only have the last 15 lines. Instead it has all 18 lines. This seems wrong, unless the documentation is wrong. It seems logical to me that the supplier would only have the remaining lines. ?? Here's a short example pulled from the test case I was writing: fileName = "delMe.stream.supplier" 'del' fileName '> nul 2>&1' f = .stream~new(fileName) do i = 1 to 18 f~lineout('cat and dog' i) end f~close fsObj = .stream~new(fileName) count = 0 do 3 count +=1 l = fsObj~linein end itr = fsObj~supplier do while itr~available count += 1 i = itr~index say 'i:' i itr~next end say 'count:' count I expected count to be 18, but instead it is 21. Putting the 'say' in shows that all line numbers are present in the Supplier object.
