Detailed Description

   template<typename CharT, typename Traits = std::char_traits<CharT>>
       class redi::pstream_common< CharT, Traits >" Class template for common base class.

       Abstract Base Class providing common functionality for basic_ipstream, basic_opstream and
       basic_pstream. pstream_common manages the basic_pstreambuf stream buffer that is used by
       the derived classes to initialise an iostream class.

Constructor & Destructor Documentation

   template<typename C , typename T > redi::pstream_common< C, T >::pstream_common () [inline],
       [protected]
       Default constructor. Creates an uninitialised stream.

       References redi::pstream_common< CharT, Traits >::buf_.

   template<typename C , typename T > redi::pstream_common< C, T >::pstream_common (const
       std::string & cmd, pmode mode) [inline],  [protected]
       Constructor that initialises the stream by starting a process. Initialises the stream
       buffer by calling do_open( command , mode )

       Parameters:
           cmd a string containing a shell command.
           mode the I/O mode to use when opening the pipe.

       See also:
           do_open(const std::string&, pmode)

       References redi::pstream_common< CharT, Traits >::buf_, and redi::pstream_common< CharT,
       Traits >::do_open().

   template<typename C , typename T > redi::pstream_common< C, T >::pstream_common (const
       std::string & file, const argv_type & argv, pmode mode) [inline],  [protected]
       Constructor that initialises the stream by starting a process. Initialises the stream
       buffer by calling do_open( file , argv , mode )

       Parameters:
           file a string containing the pathname of a program to execute.
           argv a vector of argument strings passed to the new program.
           mode the I/O mode to use when opening the pipe.

       See also:
           do_open(const std::string&, const argv_type&, pmode)

       References redi::pstream_common< CharT, Traits >::buf_, and redi::pstream_common< CharT,
       Traits >::do_open().

   template<typename C , typename T > redi::pstream_common< C, T >::~pstream_common () [inline],
       [protected],  [pure virtual]
       Pure virtual destructor. This is a pure virtual function to make pstream_common abstract.
       Because it is the destructor it will be called by derived classes and so must be defined.
       It is also protected, to discourage use of the PStreams classes through pointers or
       references to the base class.
