class core_export_ binary_writer : public xtd::object

Inheritance: xtd::object → xtd::io::binary_writer

Namespace: xtd::io

Library: xtd.core

Examples: The following code example demonstrates how to store and retrieve application settings in a file.
#include <xtd/xtd>
using namespace std;
using namespace xtd;
using namespace xtd::io;
class program {
inline static const ustring file_name = "app_settings.dat";
public:
static void main() {
write_default_values();
display_values();
}

static void write_default_values() {
using_(fstream fs = file::open(file_name, ios::out | ios::binary | ios::trunc)) {
binary_writer writer(fs);
writer.write(1.250F);
writer.write(R"(c:\Temp)");
writer.write(10);
writer.write(true);
}
}

static void display_values() {
float aspect_ratio;
ustring temp_directory;
int auto_save_time;
bool show_status_bar;

if (file::exists(file_name)) {
using_(fstream fs = file::open(file_name, ios::in | ios::binary)) {
binary_reader reader(fs);
aspect_ratio = reader.read_single();
temp_directory = reader.read_string();
auto_save_time = reader.read_int32();
show_status_bar = reader.read_boolean();
}

console::write_line("Aspect ratio set to: {}", aspect_ratio);
console::write_line("Temp directory is: {}", temp_directory);
console::write_line("Auto save time set to: {}", auto_save_time);
console::write_line("Show status bar: {}", show_status_bar);
}
}
};
startup_(program);
// This code produces the following output :
//
// Aspect ratio set to: 1.25
// Temp directory is: c:\Temp
// Auto save time set to: 10
// Show status bar: true

Examples: The same example with stream operators.
#include <xtd/xtd>
using namespace std;
using namespace xtd;
using namespace xtd::io;
class program {
inline static const ustring file_name = "app_settings.dat";
public:
static void main() {

}

static void write_default_values() {
using_(fstream fs = file::open(file_name, ios::out | ios::binary | ios::trunc)) {
binary_writer writer(fs);
writer << 1.250F;
writer << R"(c:\Temp)";
writer << 10;
writer << true;
}
}

static void display_values() {
float aspect_ratio;
ustring temp_directory;
int auto_save_time;
bool show_status_bar;

if (file::exists(file_name)) {
using_(fstream fs = file::open(file_name, ios::in | ios::binary)) {
binary_reader reader(fs);
reader >> aspect_ratio;

}

console::write_line("Aspect ratio set to: {}", aspect_ratio);
console::write_line("Temp directory is: {}", temp_directory);
console::write_line("Auto save time set to: {}", auto_save_time);
console::write_line("Show status bar: {}", show_status_bar);
}
}
};
startup_(program);
// This code produces the following output :
//
// Aspect ratio set to: 1.25
// Temp directory is: c:\Temp
// Auto save time set to: 10
// Show status bar: true

Remarks: The xtd::io::binary_writer class provides methods that simplify writing primitive data types to a stream. For example, you can use the Write method to write a Boolean value to the stream as a one-byte value. The class includes write methods that support different data types.; When you create a new instance of the xtd::io::binary_writer class, you provide the stream to write to.
