Struct std::io::Chain

pub struct Chain<T, U> { /* fields omitted */ }

Adaptor to chain together two readers.

This struct is generally created by calling chain on a reader. Please see the documentation of chain for more details.

Methods

impl<T, U> Chain<T, U>

pub fn into_inner(self) -> (T, U)

Consumes the Chain, returning the wrapped readers.

Examples

use std::io;
use std::io::prelude::*;
use std::fs::File;

fn main() -> io::Result<()> {
    let mut foo_file = File::open("foo.txt")?;
    let mut bar_file = File::open("bar.txt")?;

    let chain = foo_file.chain(bar_file);
    let (foo_file, bar_file) = chain.into_inner();
    Ok(())
}

pub fn get_ref(&self) -> (&T, &U)

Gets references to the underlying readers in this Chain.

Examples

use std::io;
use std::io::prelude::*;
use std::fs::File;

fn main() -> io::Result<()> {
    let mut foo_file = File::open("foo.txt")?;
    let mut bar_file = File::open("bar.txt")?;

    let chain = foo_file.chain(bar_file);
    let (foo_file, bar_file) = chain.get_ref();
    Ok(())
}

pub fn get_mut(&mut self) -> (&mut T, &mut U)

Gets mutable references to the underlying readers in this Chain.

Care should be taken to avoid modifying the internal I/O state of the underlying readers as doing so may corrupt the internal state of this Chain.

Examples

use std::io;
use std::io::prelude::*;
use std::fs::File;

fn main() -> io::Result<()> {
    let mut foo_file = File::open("foo.txt")?;
    let mut bar_file = File::open("bar.txt")?;

    let mut chain = foo_file.chain(bar_file);
    let (foo_file, bar_file) = chain.get_mut();
    Ok(())
}

Trait Implementations

fn by_ref(&mut self) -> &mut Self where     Self: Sized,

Creates a "by reference" adaptor for this instance of Read.

Important traits for Bytes<R>

impl<R: Read> Iterator for Bytes<R> type Item = Result<u8>;

fn bytes(self) -> Bytes<Self> where     Self: Sized,

Transforms this Read instance to an [Iterator] over its bytes.

fn chars(self) -> Chars<Self> where     Self: Sized,

🔬 This is a nightly-only experimental API. (io #27802)

the semantics of a partial read/write of where errors happen is currently unclear and may change

Transforms this Read instance to an [Iterator] over [char]s.

Important traits for Chain<T, U>

impl<T: Read, U: Read> Read for Chain<T, U>

fn chain<R: Read>(self, next: R) -> Chain<Self, R> where     Self: Sized,

impl<T: BufRead, U: BufRead> BufRead for Chain<T, U>

fn fill_buf(&mut self) -> Result<&[u8]>

Fills the internal buffer of this object, returning the buffer contents.

fn consume(&mut self, amt: usize)

Tells this buffer that amt bytes have been consumed from the buffer, so they should no longer be returned in calls to read.

fn read_until(&mut self, byte: u8, buf: &mut Vec<u8>) -> Result<usize>

Read all bytes into buf until the delimiter byte or EOF is reached.

fn read_line(&mut self, buf: &mut String) -> Result<usize>

fn lines(self) -> Lines<Self> where     Self: Sized,

Returns an iterator over the lines of this reader.
