NAME

       FBB::Eoi - std::streambuf class offering an eoi manipulator

SYNOPSIS

       #include <bobcat/eoi>
       Linking option: -lbobcat

DESCRIPTION

       The  class  Eoi  inherits  from  std::streambuf  and  may  therefore  be  used as a base class of classes
       specializing std::streambuf. It is particularly useful for classes implementing output operations, as  it
       can be used to specify the `true end’ of the generated output. E.g., an std::istream in object may insert
       its contents into a std::ostream out object using the familiar out <<  in.rdbuf()  expression,  but  that
       doesn’t  allow out to conclude that it has received all of its information.  Sometimes additional actions
       are  required  to  complete  the   output   (this   happens   with,   e.g.,   EncryptBuf   objects   (cf.
       encryptbuf(3bobcat))  where  after  encrypting  all  input padding characters may have to be added to the
       encrypted document). If out is initialized with the address of an EncryptBuf std::streambuf then the true
       end  of  the  input  can  be indicated by inserting the eoi manipulator. The resulting expression becomes
       std::cout << in.rdbuf() << eoi, and the manipulator ensures that the correct padding is handled.

NAMESPACE

       FBB
       All constructors, members, operators and manipulators, mentioned in this man-page,  are  defined  in  the
       namespace FBB.

INHERITS FROM

       std::streambuf

PROTECTED CONSTRUCTOR

       o      Eoi():
              Analogously to std::streambuf only a default protected constructor is available.

       Copy and move constructors (and assignment operators) are not available.

MEMBER FUNCTIONS

       All members of std:streambuf are available, as FBB::Eoi inherits from these classes.

VIRTUAL MEMBER FUNCTION

       o      virtual void eoi_():
              The virtual member function eoi_ is a private member that can be overridden by derived classes. By
              default it performs no actions.

MANIPULATORS

       o      std::ostream &FBB::eoi(std::ostream &out):
              If the ostream out’s streambuf’s address can be downcasted to an Eoi * then  its  eoi_  member  is
              called. Otherwise the manipulator performs no actions, and merely returns out.
