package IO::File;
=head1 NAME
IO::File - supply object methods for filehandles
=head1 SYNOPSIS
use IO::File;
$fh = new IO::File;
if ($fh->open "< file") {
print <$fh>;
$fh->close;
}
$fh = new IO::File "> FOO";
if (defined $fh) {
print $fh "bar\n";
$fh->close;
}
$fh = new IO::File "file", "r";
if (defined $fh) {
print <$fh>;
undef $fh; # automatically closes the file
}
$fh = new IO::File "file", O_WRONLY|O_APPEND;
if (defined $fh) {
print $fh "corge\n";
undef $fh; # automatically closes the file
}
$pos = $fh->getpos;
$fh->setpos $pos;
$fh->setvbuf($buffer_var, _IOLBF, 1024);
autoflush STDOUT 1;
=head1 DESCRIPTION
C<IO::File> is inherits from C<IO::Handle> ans C<IO::Seekable>. It extends
these classes with methods that are specific to file handles.
=head1 CONSTRUCTOR
=over 4
=item new ([ ARGS ] )
Creates a C<IO::File>. If it receives any parameters, they are passed to
the method C<open>; if the open fails, the object is destroyed. Otherwise,
it is returned to the caller.
=back
=head1 METHODS
=over 4
=item open( FILENAME [,MODE [,PERMS]] )
C<open> accepts one, two or three parameters. With one parameter,
it is just a front end for the built-in C<open> function. With two
parameters, the first parameter is a filename that may include
whitespace or other special characters, and the second parameter is
the open mode, optionally followed by a file permission value.
If C<IO::File::open> receives a Perl mode string ("E<gt>", "+E<lt>", etc.)
or a POSIX fopen() mode string ("w", "r+", etc.), it uses the basic
Perl C<open> operator.
If C<IO::File::open> is given a numeric mode, it passes that mode
and the optional permissions value to the Perl C<sysopen> operator.
For convenience, C<IO::File::import> tries to import the O_XXX
constants from the Fcntl module. If dynamic loading is not available,
this may fail, but the rest of IO::File will still work.
