Each value of this type is a -- /handle/: a record used by the Haskell run-time system to /manage/ I\/O -- with file system objects. A handle has at least the following properties: -- -- * whether it manages input or output or both; -- -- * whether it is /open/, /closed/ or /semi-closed/; -- -- * whether the object is seekable; -- -- * whether buffering is disabled, or enabled on a line or block basis; -- -- * a buffer (whose length may be zero). -- -- Most handles will also have a current I\/O position indicating where the next -- input or output operation will occur. A handle is /readable/ if it -- manages only input or both input and output; likewise, it is /writable/ if -- it manages only output or both input and output. A handle is /open/ when -- first allocated. -- Once it is closed it can no longer be used for either input or output, -- though an implementation cannot re-use its storage while references -- remain to it. Handles are in the 'Show' and 'Eq' classes. The string -- produced by showing a handle is system dependent; it should include -- enough information to identify the handle for debugging.

These modes have the following -- effects. For output, items are written out, or /flushed/, -- from the internal buffer according to the buffer mode: -- -- * /line-buffering/: the entire output buffer is flushed -- whenever a newline is output, the buffer overflows, -- a 'System.IO.hFlush' is issued, or the handle is closed. -- -- * /block-buffering/: the entire buffer is written out whenever it -- overflows, a 'System.IO.hFlush' is issued, or the handle is closed. -- -- * /no-buffering/: output is written immediately, and never stored -- in the buffer. -- -- An implementation is free to flush the buffer more frequently, -- but not less frequently, than specified above. -- The output buffer is emptied as soon as it has been written out. -- -- Similarly, input occurs according to the buffer mode for the handle: -- -- * /line-buffering/: when the buffer for the handle is not empty, -- the next item is obtained from the buffer; otherwise, when the -- buffer is empty, characters up to and including the next newline -- character are read into the buffer. No characters are available -- until the newline character is available or the buffer is full. -- -- * /block-buffering/: when the buffer for the handle becomes empty, -- the next block of data is read into the buffer. -- -- * /no-buffering/: the next input item is read and returned. -- The 'System.IO.hLookAhead' operation implies that even a no-buffered -- handle may require a one-character buffer. -- -- The default buffering mode when a handle is opened is -- implementation-dependent and may depend on the file system object -- which is attached to that handle. -- For most implementations, physical files will normally be block-buffered -- and terminals will normally be line-buffered. data BufferMode = NoBuffering -- ^ buffering is disabled if possible. | LineBuffering -- ^ line-buffering should be enabled if possible. | BlockBuffering (Maybe Int) -- ^ block-buffering should be enabled if possible. -- The size of the buffer is @n@ items if the argument -- is 'Just' @n@ and is otherwise implementation-dependent. deriving (Eq, Ord, Read, Show) {- [note Buffering Implementation] Each Handle has two buffers: a byte buffer (haByteBuffer) and a Char buffer (haCharBuffer). [note Buffered Reading] For read Handles, bytes are read into the byte buffer, and immediately decoded into the Char buffer (see GHC.IO.Handle.Internals.readTextDevice). The only way there might be some data left in the byte buffer is if there is a partial multi-byte character sequence that cannot be decoded into a full character. Note that the buffering mode (haBufferMode) makes no difference when reading data into a Handle. When reading, we can always just read all the data there is available without blocking, decode it into the Char buffer, and then provide it immediately to the caller. [note Buffered Writing] Characters are written into the Char buffer by e.g. hPutStr. When the buffer is full, we call writeTextDevice, which encodes the Char buffer into the byte buffer, and then immediately writes it all out to the underlying device. The Char buffer will always be empty afterward. This might require multiple decoding/writing cycles. [note Buffer Sizing] Since the buffer mode makes no difference when reading, we can just use the default buffer size for both the byte and the Char buffer. Ineed, we must have room for at least one Char in the Char buffer, because we have to implement hLookAhead, which requires caching a Char in the Handle. Furthermore, when doing newline translation, we need room for at least two Chars in the read buffer, so we can spot the \r\n sequence. For writing, however, when the buffer mode is NoBuffering, we use a 1-element Char buffer to force flushing of the buffer after each Char is read. [note Buffer Flushing] ** Flushing the Char buffer We must be able to flush the Char buffer, in order to implement hSetEncoding, and things like hGetBuf which want to read raw bytes. Flushing the Char buffer on a write Handle is easy: just call writeTextDevice to encode and write the date. Flushing the Char buffer on a read Handle involves rewinding the byte buffer to the point representing the next Char in the Char buffer. This is done by - remembering the state of the byte buffer *before* the last decode - re-decoding the bytes that represent the chars already read from the Char buffer. This gives us the point in the byte buffer that represents the *next* Char to be read. In order for this to work, after readTextHandle we must NOT MODIFY THE CONTENTS OF THE BYTE OR CHAR BUFFERS, except to remove characters from the Char buffer. ** Flushing the byte buffer The byte buffer can be flushed if the Char buffer has already been flushed (see above). For a read Handle, flushing the byte buffer means seeking the device back by the number of bytes in the buffer, and hence it is only possible on a seekable Handle. -} -- --------------------------------------------------------------------------- -- Newline translation -- | The representation of a newline in the external file or stream. data Newline = LF -- ^ '\n' | CRLF -- ^ '\r\n' deriving (Eq, Ord, Read, Show) -- | Specifies the translation, if any, of newline characters between -- internal Strings and the external file or stream.
