29 | =head1 DESCRIPTION |
30 | |
774d564b |
31 | C<IO::Handle> is the base class for all other IO handle classes. It is |
32 | not intended that objects of C<IO::Handle> would be created directly, |
33 | but instead C<IO::Handle> is inherited from by several other classes |
34 | in the IO hierarchy. |
35 | |
36 | If you are reading this documentation, looking for a replacement for |
37 | the C<FileHandle> package, then I suggest you read the documentation |
38 | for C<IO::File> |
39 | |
27d4819a |
40 | A C<IO::Handle> object is a reference to a symbol (see the C<Symbol> package) |
8add82fc |

27d4819a |
42 | =head1 CONSTRUCTOR |
43 | |
44 | =over 4 |
45 | |
46 | =item new () |
8add82fc |
47 | |
27d4819a |
48 | Creates a new C<IO::Handle> object. |
8add82fc |
49 | |
27d4819a |
50 | =item new_from_fd ( FD, MODE ) |
51 | |
52 | Creates a C<IO::Handle> like C<new> does. |
53 | It requires two parameters, which are passed to the method C<fdopen>; |
54 | if the fdopen fails, the object is destroyed. Otherwise, it is returned |
55 | to the caller. |

59 | =head1 METHODS |
8add82fc |
60 | |
8add82fc |
61 | See L<perlfunc> for complete descriptions of each of the following |
62 | supported C<IO::Handle> methods, which are just front ends for the |
63 | corresponding built-in functions: |
a6006777 |
64 | |
8add82fc |
65 | close |
66 | fileno |
67 | getc |
8add82fc |
68 | eof |
69 | read |
70 | truncate |
71 | stat |
27d4819a |
72 | print |
73 | printf |
74 | sysread |
75 | syswrite |
8add82fc |
76 | |
77 | See L<perlvar> for complete descriptions of each of the following |
78 | supported C<IO::Handle> methods: |
79 | |
80 | autoflush |
81 | output_field_separator |
82 | output_record_separator |
83 | input_record_separator |
84 | input_line_number |
85 | format_page_number |
86 | format_lines_per_page |
87 | format_lines_left |
88 | format_name |
89 | format_top_name |
90 | format_line_break_characters |
91 | format_formfeed |
92 | format_write |
93 | |
94 | Furthermore, for doing normal I/O you might need these: |
95 | |
96 | =over |
97 | |
948ecc40 |
98 | =item $fh->fdopen ( FD, MODE ) |
99 | |
100 | C<fdopen> is like an ordinary C<open> except that its first parameter |
101 | is not a filename but rather a file handle name, a IO::Handle object, |
102 | or a file descriptor number. |
103 | |
104 | =item $fh->opened |
105 | |
106 | Returns true if the object is currently a valid file descriptor. |
107 | |
8add82fc |
108 | =item $fh->getline |
109 | |
110 | This works like <$fh> described in L<perlop/"I/O Operators"> |
111 | except that it's more readable and can be safely called in an |
112 | array context but still returns just one line. |
113 | |
114 | =item $fh->getlines |
115 | |
116 | This works like <$fh> when called in an array context to |
117 | read all the remaining lines in a file, except that it's more readable. |
118 | It will also croak() if accidentally called in a scalar context. |
119 | |
948ecc40 |
120 | =item $fh->ungetc ( ORD ) |
27d4819a |
121 | |
948ecc40 |
122 | Pushes a character with the given ordinal value back onto the given |
123 | handle's input stream. |
27d4819a |
124 | |
125 | =item $fh->write ( BUF, LEN [, OFFSET }\] ) |
126 | |
948ecc40 |
127 | This C<write> is like C<write> found in C, that is it is the |
27d4819a |
128 | opposite of read. The wrapper for the perl C<write> function is |
129 | called C<format_write>. |
130 | |
948ecc40 |
131 | =item $fh->flush |
27d4819a |
132 | |
948ecc40 |
133 | Flush the given handle's buffer. |
134 | |
135 | =item $fh->error |
136 | |
137 | Returns a true value if the given handle has experienced any errors |
138 | since it was opened or since the last call to C<clearerr>. |
139 | |
140 | =item $fh->clearerr |
141 | |
142 | Clear the given handle's error indicator. |
27d4819a |
143 | |
8add82fc |
144 | =back |
145 | |
948ecc40 |
146 | If the C functions setbuf() and/or setvbuf() are available, then |
147 | C<IO::Handle::setbuf> and C<IO::Handle::setvbuf> set the buffering |
148 | policy for an IO::Handle. The calling sequences for the Perl functions |
149 | are the same as their C counterparts--including the constants C<_IOFBF>, |
150 | C<_IOLBF>, and C<_IONBF> for setvbuf()--except that the buffer parameter |
151 | specifies a scalar variable to use as a buffer. WARNING: A variable |
152 | used as a buffer by C<setbuf> or C<setvbuf> must not be modified in any |
153 | way until the IO::Handle is closed or C<setbuf> or C<setvbuf> is called |
154 | again, or memory corruption may result! |
155 | |
156 | Lastly, there is a special method for working under B<-T> and setuid/gid |
157 | scripts: |
515e7bd7 |
158 | |
159 | =over |
160 | |
161 | =item $fh->untaint |
162 | |
163 | Marks the object as taint-clean, and as such data read from it will also |
164 | be considered taint-clean. Note that this is a very trusting action to |
165 | take, and appropriate consideration for the data source and potential |
166 | vulnerability should be kept in mind. |

170 | =head1 NOTE |
8add82fc |
171 | |
27d4819a |
172 | A C<IO::Handle> object is a GLOB reference. Some modules that |
8add82fc |
173 | inherit from C<IO::Handle> may want to keep object related variables |
174 | in the hash table part of the GLOB. In an attempt to prevent modules |
175 | trampling on each other I propose the that any such module should prefix |
176 | its variables with its own name separated by _'s. For example the IO::Socket |
177 | module keeps a C<timeout> variable in 'io_socket_timeout'. |

185 | =head1 BUGS |
186 | |
187 | Due to backwards compatibility, all filehandles resemble objects |
188 | of class C<IO::Handle>, or actually classes derived from that class. |
189 | They actually aren't. Which means you can't derive your own |
190 | class from C<IO::Handle> and inherit those methods. |
