从streambuf派生而不重写相应的流
几天前,我决定编写一个使用 mmap
和预读的 streambuf
子类会很有趣。 我查看了我的 STL (SGI) 如何实现 filebuf
并意识到 basic_filebuf
包含一个 FILE*
。因此从 basic_filebuf
继承是不可能的。
所以我继承自basic_streambuf
。然后我想将我的 mmapbuf
绑定到 fstream。
我认为我唯一要做的就是复制 filebuf 的隐式接口...但这显然是一个错误。在SGI中,basic_fstream
拥有一个basic_filebuf
。无论我是否调用 basic_filestream.std::::ios::rdbuf(streambuf* ),文件流都会完全忽略它并使用自己的 filebuf。
所以现在我有点困惑......当然,我可以创建自己的 mmfstream
,这将是 fstream
的精确复制/粘贴,但这听起来确实不是以干为主。
我无法理解的是:为什么fstream
与filebuf
如此紧密地结合在一起,以至于除了之外不可能使用其他任何东西>filebuf
? 分离流和 buf 的要点在于,可以使用具有不同缓冲区的流。
解决方案:
=> filestream
应该依赖于filebuf
的隐式接口。也就是说,fstream 应该由streambuf 类模板化。这将允许每个人都向 fstream
提供自己的 Streambuf 子类,只要它实现 filebuf
的隐式接口即可。问题:我们无法向 fstream
添加模板参数,因为在使用 fstream
作为模板模板参数时,它会破坏模板选择器。
=> filebuf
应该是一个纯虚拟类,没有任何附加属性。这样就可以继承它而无需携带其所有 FILE* 垃圾。
您对这个问题的想法?
Some days ago, I decided that it would be fun to write a streambuf
subclass that would use mmap
and read-ahead.
I looked at how my STL (SGI) implemented filebuf
and realized that basic_filebuf
contains a FILE*
. So inheriting from basic_filebuf
is out of the question.
So I inherited from basic_streambuf
. Then i wanted to bind my mmapbuf
to a fstream.
I thought the only thing that I would have to do would be to copy the implicit interface of filebuf
... but that was a clear mistake. In the SGI, basic_fstream
owns a basic_filebuf
. No matter if I call basic_filestream.std::::ios::rdbuf( streambuf* )
, the filestream completely ignores it and uses its own filebuf
.
So now I'm a bit confused... sure, I can create my own mmfstream
, that would be the exact copy/paste of the fstream
but that sounds really not DRY-oriented.
What I can't understand, is: why does fstream
is so tightly coupled with filebuf
, so that it is not possible to use anything else than a filebuf
? The whole point of separating streams and bufs is that one can use a stream with a different buffer.
Solutions:
=> filestream
should rely on the implicit interface of filebuf
. That is, fstream should be templated by a streambuf class. That would allow everyone to provide its own streambuf subclass to a fstream
as long as it implements filebuf
's implicit interface. Problem: we cannot add a template parameter to fstream
since it would break template selectors while using fstream
as template template parameter.
=> filebuf
should be a pure virtual class without any additional attributes. So that one can inherit from it without carrying all its FILE* garbage.

在 IO 流的设计中,大多数实际流的功能(与流缓冲区的功能相反)是在
std::basic_istream
、std::basic_ostream
中实现的,以及他们的基类。 字符串和文件流类或多或少只是方便的包装器,可确保实例化具有正确类型缓冲区的流。如果您想扩展流,您几乎总是希望提供自己的流缓冲区类,并且您几乎不需要提供自己的流类。 。
一旦您拥有自己的流缓冲区类型,您就可以将其作为您碰巧拥有的任何流对象的缓冲区。或者,您可以从
std::basic_istream
、std::basic_ostream
和std::basic_iostream
派生自己的类,它们实例化您的流缓冲区并传递它到他们的基类。后者对用户来说更方便,但需要您为缓冲区的实例化编写一些样板代码(即流类的构造函数)。
回答你的问题:文件流和文件缓冲区耦合如此紧密,因为前者的存在只是为了简化后者的创建。使用文件流可以轻松完成所有设置。
使用您自己的流类来包装您自己的流缓冲区的构造应该不是问题,因为您无论如何都不应该传递文件流,而只能(引用)基类。
In the IO streams' design, most of the actual streams' functionality (as opposed to the stream buffers' functionality) is implemented in
std::basic_istream
,std::basic_ostream
, and their base classes. The string and file stream classes are more or less just convenience wrappers which make sure a stream with the right type of buffer is instantiated.If you want to extend the streams, you almost always want to provide your own stream buffer class, and you almost never need to provide your own stream class. .
Once you have your own stream buffer type, you can then make it the buffer for any stream object you happen to have around. Or you derive your own classes from
std::basic_istream
,std::basic_ostream
, andstd::basic_iostream
which instantiates your stream buffer and pass it to their base classes.The latter is more convenient for users, but requires you to write some boiler-plate code for the buffer's instantiation (namely constructors for the stream class).
To answer your question: File streams and file buffer are coupled so tightly because the former only exists to ease the creation of the latter. Using a file stream makes it easy to set it all up.
Using your own stream class to wrap construction of your own stream buffer shouldn't be a problem, since you shouldn't be passing around file streams anyway, but only (references) to the base classes.
查看 mapped_file Boost.Iostreams 库。我自己从未使用过它,但看起来它可能已经满足了您的需要。
编辑:哎呀,重读你的问题,我发现你这样做是为了好玩。或许你可以从Boost.Iostreams中汲取灵感?
Check out mapped_file in the Boost.Iostreams library. I've never used used it myself, but it seems like it might already do what you need.
EDIT: Oops, reread your questions and I see you're doing this for fun. Perhaps you can draw inspiration from Boost.Iostreams?
fstream
本身并不是一个大类。它继承自basic_stream
,为所有<<
和>>
操作提供支持,包含一个专门的steambuf< /code> 必须初始化,以及相应的构造函数将参数传递给
streambuf
构造函数。从某种意义上说,您所写的有关模板化解决方案的内容是可以的。但是,
basic_stream
也可以派生为tcp_stream
。在这种情况下,fstream 的构造函数就有点无用了。因此,您需要提供一个新的tcpstream
类,该类继承自basic_stream
,并为构造函数提供正确的参数,以便能够创建tcp_stream
。最后,您不会使用fstream
中的任何内容。创建这个新的tcpstream
只需编写 3 或 4 个函数即可。最后,您将在没有任何真正理由的情况下从
fstream
类派生。这会在类层次结构中增加更多的耦合,即不必要的耦合。fstream
in itself is not a big class. It inherits frombasic_stream
to provide support for all the<<
and>>
operations, contains a specializedsteambuf
that have to be initialized, and the corresponding constructors to pass the parameters to thestreambuf
constructor.In a sense, what you wrote about your templated solution is OK. But
basic_stream
can also be derived into atcp_stream
for example. In that case, the constructors offstream
are a bit useless. Thus you need to provide a newtcpstream
class, inheriting frombasic_stream
with the correct parameters for the constructors to be able to create thetcp_stream
. In the end, you wouldn't use anything fromfstream
. Creating this newtcpstream
is a matter of writing 3 or 4 functions only.In the end, you would derive from the
fstream
class without any real reason to. This would add more coupling in the class hierarchy, unneeded coupling.std::fstream
的全部要点在于它是基于 _F_ile 的std::stream
。如果您想要一个由mmstreambuf
支持的普通std::stream
,那么您应该创建一个mmstreambuf
并将其传递给std: :stream::stream(std::streambuf*)
The whole point of
std::fstream
is that it is a _F_ile basedstd::stream
. If you want an ordinarystd::stream
backed by yourmmstreambuf
, then you should create ammstreambuf
and pass it tostd::stream::stream(std::streambuf*)
