=head1 NAME
|
||
|
|
||
|
IO::Seekable - supply seek based methods for I/O objects
|
||
|
|
||
|
=head1 SYNOPSIS
|
||
|
|
||
|
use IO::Seekable;
|
||
|
package IO::Something;
|
||
|
@ISA = qw(IO::Seekable);
|
||
|
|
||
|
=head1 DESCRIPTION
|
||
|
|
||
|
C<IO::Seekable> does not have a constuctor of its own as is intended to
|
||
|
be inherited by other C<IO::Handle> based objects. It provides methods
|
||
|
which allow seeking of the file descriptors.
|
||
|
|
||
|
If the C functions fgetpos() and fsetpos() are available, then
|
||
|
C<IO::File::getpos> returns an opaque value that represents the
|
||
|
current position of the IO::File, and C<IO::File::setpos> uses
|
||
|
that value to return to a previously visited position.
|
||
|
|
||
|
See L<perlfunc> for complete descriptions of each of the following
|
||
|
supported C<IO::Seekable> methods, which are just front ends for the
|
||
|
corresponding built-in functions:
|
||
|
|
||
|
seek
|
||
|
tell
|
||
|
