Detailed Description

The FileIO class represents a regular file.


Constructor & Destructor Documentation

Default constructor for creating an is_null() FileIO object.

pp::FileIO::FileIO(const InstanceHandleinstance) [explicit]

A constructor used to create a FileIO and associate it with the provided Instance.

Parameters:
[in]instanceThe instance with which this resource will be associated.
pp::FileIO::FileIO(const FileIOother)

The copy constructor for FileIO.

Parameters:
[in]otherA reference to a FileIO.

Member Function Documentation

Close() cancels any IO that may be pending, and closes the FileIO object.

Any pending callbacks will still run, reporting PP_ERROR_ABORTED if pending IO was interrupted. It is not valid to call Open() again after a call to this method.

Note: If the FileIO object is destroyed, and it is still open, then it will be implicitly closed, so you are not required to call Close().

Flush() flushes changes to disk.

This call can be very expensive!

Parameters:
[in]ccA CompletionCallback to be called upon completion of Flush().
Returns:
An int32_t containing an error code from pp_errors.h.
int32_t pp::FileIO::Open(const FileReffile_ref,
int32_t open_flags,
const CompletionCallbackcc 
)

Open() opens the specified regular file for I/O according to the given open flags, which is a bit-mask of the PP_FileOpenFlags values.

Upon success, the corresponding file is classified as "in use" by this FileIO object until such time as the FileIO object is closed or destroyed.

Parameters:
[in]file_refA PP_Resource corresponding to a file reference.
[in]open_flagsA bit-mask of the PP_FileOpenFlags values. Valid values are:
  • PP_FILEOPENFLAG_READ
  • PP_FILEOPENFLAG_WRITE
  • PP_FILEOPENFLAG_CREATE
  • PP_FILEOPENFLAG_TRUNCATE
  • PP_FILEOPENFLAG_EXCLUSIVE See PP_FileOpenFlags in ppb_file_io.h for more details on these flags.
[in]ccA CompletionCallback to be called upon completion of Open().
Returns:
An int32_t containing an error code from pp_errors.h.
int32_t pp::FileIO::Query(PP_FileInfo * result_buf,
const CompletionCallbackcc 
)

Query() queries info about the file opened by this FileIO object.

This function will fail if the FileIO object has not been opened.

Parameters:
[in]result_bufThe PP_FileInfo structure representing all information about the file.
[in]ccA CompletionCallback to be called upon completion of Query(). result_buf must remain valid until after the callback runs. If you pass a blocking callback, result_buf must remain valid until after Query() returns.
Returns:
An int32_t containing an error code from pp_errors.h.
int32_t pp::FileIO::Read(int64_t offset,
char * buffer,
int32_t bytes_to_read,
const CompletionCallbackcc 
)

Reads from an offset in the file.

The size of the buffer must be large enough to hold the specified number of bytes to read. This function might perform a partial read, meaning that all the requested bytes might not be returned, even if the end of the file has not been reached.

This function reads into a buffer that the caller supplies. This buffer must remain valid as long as the FileIO resource is alive. If you use a completion callback factory and it goes out of scope, it will not issue the callback on your class, BUT the callback factory can NOT cancel the request from the browser's perspective. This means that the browser will still try to write to your buffer even if the callback factory is destroyed!

So you must ensure that your buffer outlives the FileIO resource. If you have one class and use the FileIO resource exclusively from that class and never make any copies, this will be fine: the resource will be destroyed when your class is. But keep in mind that copying a pp::FileIO object just creates a second reference to the original resource. For example, if you have a function like this: pp::FileIO MyClass::GetFileIO(); where a copy of your FileIO resource could outlive your class, the callback will still be pending when your class goes out of scope, creating the possibility of writing into invalid memory. So it's recommended to keep your FileIO resource and any output buffers tightly controlled in the same scope.

Caveat: This Read() is potentially unsafe if you're using a CompletionCallbackFactory to scope callbacks to the lifetime of your class. When your class goes out of scope, the callback factory will not actually cancel the callback, but will rather just skip issuing the callback on your class. This means that if the FileIO object outlives your class (if you made a copy saved somewhere else, for example), then the browser will still try to write into your buffer when the asynchronous read completes, potentially causing a crash.

See the other version of Read() which avoids this problem by writing into CompletionCallbackWithOutput, where the output buffer is automatically managed by the callback.

Parameters:
[in]offsetThe offset into the file.
[in]bufferThe buffer to hold the specified number of bytes read.
[in]bytes_to_readThe number of bytes to read from offset.
[in]ccA CompletionCallback to be called upon completion of Read(). buffer must remain valid until after the callback runs. If you pass a blocking callback, buffer must remain valid until after Read() returns.
Returns:
An The number of bytes read an error code from pp_errors.h. If the return value is 0, then end-of-file was reached. It is valid to call Read() multiple times with a completion callback to queue up parallel reads from the file at different offsets.
int32_t pp::FileIO::Read(int32_t offset,
int32_t max_read_length,
const CompletionCallbackWithOutput< std::vector< char > > & cc 
)

Read() reads from an offset in the file.

A PP_ArrayOutput must be provided so that output will be stored in its allocated buffer. This function might perform a partial read.

Parameters:
[in]file_ioA PP_Resource corresponding to a file FileIO.
[in]offsetThe offset into the file.
[in]max_read_lengthThe maximum number of bytes to read from offset.
[in]outputA PP_ArrayOutput to hold the output data.
[in]callbackA PP_CompletionCallback to be called upon completion of Read().
Returns:
The number of bytes read or an error code from pp_errors.h. If the return value is 0, then end-of-file was reached. It is valid to call Read() multiple times with a completion callback to queue up parallel reads from the file, but pending reads cannot be interleaved with other operations.
int32_t pp::FileIO::SetLength(int64_t length,
const CompletionCallbackcc 
)

SetLength() sets the length of the file.

If the file size is extended, then the extended area of the file is zero-filled. The FileIO object must have been opened with write access.

Parameters:
[in]lengthThe length of the file to be set.
[in]ccA CompletionCallback to be called upon completion of SetLength().
Returns:
An int32_t containing an error code from pp_errors.h.
int32_t pp::FileIO::Touch(PP_Time last_access_time,
PP_Time last_modified_time,
const CompletionCallbackcc 
)

Touch() Updates time stamps for the file opened by this FileIO object.

This function will fail if the FileIO object has not been opened.

Parameters:
[in]last_access_timeThe last time the FileIO was accessed.
[in]last_modified_timeThe last time the FileIO was modified.
[in]ccA CompletionCallback to be called upon completion of Touch().
Returns:
An int32_t containing an error code from pp_errors.h.
int32_t pp::FileIO::Write(int64_t offset,
const char * buffer,
int32_t bytes_to_write,
const CompletionCallbackcc 
)

Write() writes to an offset in the file.

This function might perform a partial write. The FileIO object must have been opened with write access.

Parameters:
[in]offsetThe offset into the file.
[in]bufferThe buffer to hold the specified number of bytes read.
[in]bytes_to_writeThe number of bytes to write to offset.
[in]ccA CompletionCallback to be called upon completion of Write().
Returns:
An The number of bytes written or an error code from pp_errors.h. If the return value is 0, then end-of-file was reached. It is valid to call Write() multiple times with a completion callback to queue up parallel writes to the file at different offsets.
