## Detailed Description

Interface for private data of input streams.

Methods in this interface serve as low-level API for using input streams from C++ code.

## Member Function Documentation

## ◆ peek()

virtual int64 InputStream::peek | ( | ExceptionSink * | xsink | ) |
| pure virtual

Peeks the next byte from the input stream.

Parameters

  xsink | the exception sink

Returns
  the next byte available to be read, -1 indicates end of the stream, -2 indicates an error

## ◆ peekHelper()

DLLLOCAL QoreValue InputStream::peekHelper | ( | ExceptionSink * | xsink | ) |
| inline

Helper method that checks that the current thread is the same as when the instance was created, calls peek() and wraps the result to Qore's `int` value.

Parameters

  xsink | the exception sink

Returns
  the `int` wrapping the result or `NOTHING` if the end of the stream has been reached

## ◆ read()

virtual int64 InputStream::read | ( | void * | ptr,
|  | int64 | limit,
|  | ExceptionSink * | xsink
| ) |  |
| pure virtual

Reads up to `limit` bytes from the input stream.

Parameters

  ptr | the destination buffer to read data into
  limit | the maximum number of bytes to read, must be > 0
  xsink | the exception sink

Returns
  the number of bytes read, 0 indicates the end of the stream

## ◆ readHelper()

DLLLOCAL BinaryNode* InputStream::readHelper | ( | int64 | limit,
|  | ExceptionSink * | xsink
| ) |  |
| inline

Helper method that checks that the current thread is the same as when the instance was created, calls read() and wraps the read data to Qore's `binary` value.

Parameters

  limit | the maximum number of bytes to read
  xsink | the exception sink

Returns
  the `binary` wrapping the read data or `NOTHING` if the end of the stream has been reached
