NAME

       FBB::TempStream - Temporary fstream

SYNOPSIS

       #include <bobcat/tempstream>

DESCRIPTION

       FBB::TempStream  objects  are  temporary  std::fstreams  opened  with mode 0600 (user only
       read+write). The file created by a TempStream object is removed from the file system  once
       the TempStream object goes out of scope.

       A  TempStream  object  creates  an empty file, and information can immediately be inserted
       into the TempStream object. To switch between insertion and extraction simply  call  seekg
       (for extraction) or seekp (for insertion).

NAMESPACE

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

INHERITS FROM

       std::fstream

CONSTRUCTORS

       o      TempStream(std::string const &base = "/tmp/FBB::TempStream"):
              The constructor initializes the object and creates a file with the given  base-name
              to  which  six  random  characters  are  appended.  If  the TempStream could not be
              constructed an FBB::Exception is thrown.

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

MEMBER FUNCTIONS

       All std::fstream members are available, as FBB::TempStream inherits from  this  class.  In
       addition, TempStream itself offers

       o      std::string const &fileName() const:
              The name of the created temporary file.

EXAMPLE

           #include <iostream>
           #include <bobcat/tempstream>

           using namespace std;
           using namespace FBB;

           int main()
           {
               TempStream ts("/tmp/demo");

               ts << "Hello world\n";

               ts.seekg(0);
               string line;
               getline(ts, line);
               cout << line << ", removed: " << ts.fileName() << ’\n’;
           }
