August 19, 2004 Updated std.stdio | ||||
---|---|---|---|---|
| ||||
Nobody commented on my last post ("inputting functions for std.stdio"), so I'll re-post it. I've added new functions readf(), readfln(), freadf(), and freadfln() to std.stdio. readf() - reads a line from stdin, but does not include the newline readfln() - reads a line from stdin, and includes the newline freadf(FILE* fp) - reads a line from fp, but does not include the newline freadfln(FILE* fp) - reads a line from fp, and includes the newline The updated version is here: http://kinghajj.home.comcast.net/stdio.d |

Posted in reply to kinghajj | some first impressions: - the "f" in writef stands for "format" and since there isn't any format involved in readf it should be called something else - like readLine or getLine something... - accepting a buffer to fill would be nice (see std.stream.readLine) "kinghajj" <kinghajj_member@pathlink.com> wrote in message news:cg2sdr$29lt$1@digitaldaemon.com... > Nobody commented on my last post ("inputting functions for std.stdio"), so I'll > re-post it. > > I've added new functions readf(), readfln(), freadf(), and freadfln() to > std.stdio. > > readf() - reads a line from stdin, but does not include the newline > readfln() - reads a line from stdin, and includes the newline > freadf(FILE* fp) - reads a line from fp, but does not include the newline > freadfln(FILE* fp) - reads a line from fp, and includes the newline > > The updated version is here: http://kinghajj.home.comcast.net/stdio.d > > |

Ok... but, readLine exists already... Accecpt a buffer: you mean like "read(buf)"? I think I could do that. |

Posted in reply to kinghajj | I changed some things: I've removed the unneeded 'f's and I added new functions: read(out char[] buf) readln(out char[] buf) fread(FILE *fp, out char[] buf) freadln(FILE *fp, out char[] buf) Fairly self-explanatory. Again, it's here: http://kinghajj.home.comcast.net/stdio.d |

Anyway, for the record, in Unicode, any of the following should be accepted as "newline": U+000A (Carriage Return) U+000A U+000D (Carriage Return followed by Line Feed) U+000D (Line Feed) U+0085 (Next Line) U+2028 (Line Separator) U+2029 (Paragraph Separator) Also, when reading a line from a file, normally you don't care what kind of newline was used to terminate the line - however, sometimes you do, and therefore it might also be useful also to return that information somehow.
