Stream
A table which can process a stream of bytes. A stream can be used to read and write to files. They can read/write both binary and ASCII files.
Create
Create a Stream.
Sig: stream = Stream.Create()
- Ret: Stream stream Newly created stream
GetSize
Get the size of the Stream in bytes.
Sig: size = Stream:GetSize()
- Ret: integer size Size in bytes
GetPos
Get the Stream cursor position (byte offset where we are reading from or writing to).
Sig: pos = Stream:GetPos()
- Ret: integer pos Cursor position
SetPos
Set the Stream cursor position (byte offset where we are reading from or writing to).
Sig: Stream:SetPos(pos)
- Arg: integer pos Cursor position
ReadFile
Read the bytes from a file and store them in this Stream.
Sig: Stream:ReadFile(path, maxSize=0)
- Arg: string path File path
- Arg: integer maxSize Max number of bytes to store in Stream (0 = no limit).
WriteFile
Write the contents of this Stream to a file.
Sig: Stream:WriteFile(path)
- Arg: string path File path
ReadAsset
Read an asset descriptor from the Stream.
Sig: asset = Stream:ReadAsset()
- Ret: Asset asset Asset
WriteAsset
Write an asset descriptor to the Stream.
Sig: Stream:WriteAsset(asset)
- Arg: Asset asset Asset
ReadString
Read a string from the Stream.
Sig: str = Stream:ReadString()
- Ret: string str String
WriteString
Write a string to the Stream.
Sig: Stream:WriteString(str)
- Arg: string str String
ReadInt32
Read a 32-bit integer from the Stream.
Sig: int = Stream:ReadInt32()
- Ret: integer int Integer
ReadInt16
Read a 16-bit integer from the Stream.
Sig: int = Stream:ReadInt16()
- Ret: integer int Integer
ReadInt8
Read an 8-bit integer from the Stream.
Sig: int = Stream:ReadInt8()
- Ret: integer int Integer
ReadFloat
Read a floating-point number from the Stream.
Sig: float = Stream:ReadFloat()
- Ret: number float Float
ReadBool
Read a boolean from the Stream.
Sig: bool = Stream:ReadBool()
- Ret: boolean bool Boolean
ReadVec2
Read a 2-component Vector from the Stream.
Sig: vec = Stream:ReadVec2()
- Ret: Vector vec Vector
ReadVec3
Read a 3-component Vector from the Stream.
Sig: vec = Stream:ReadVec3()
- Ret: Vector vec Vector
ReadVec4
Read a 4-component Vector from the Stream.
Sig: vec = Stream:ReadVec4()
- Ret: Vector vec Vector
WriteInt32
Write a 32-bit integer to the Stream.
Sig: Stream:WriteInt32(int)
- Arg: integer int Integer
WriteInt16
Write a 16-bit integer to the Stream.
Sig: Stream:WriteInt16(int)
- Arg: integer int Integer
WriteInt8
Write an 8-bit integer to the Stream.
Sig: Stream:WriteInt8(int)
- Arg: integer int Integer
WriteFloat
Write a floating-point number to the Stream.
Sig: Stream:WriteFloat(float)
- Arg: number float Float
WriteBool
Write a boolean to the Stream.
Sig: Stream:WriteBool(bool)
- Arg: boolean bool Boolean
WriteVec2
Write a 2-component Vector to the Stream.
Sig: Stream:WriteVec2(vec)
- Arg: Vector vec Vector
WriteVec3
Write a 3-component Vector to the Stream.
Sig: Stream:WriteVec3(vec)
- Arg: Vector vec Vector
WriteVec4
