read

open override fun <T> read(buffer: <Error class: unknown class><T>, size: SizeT, bufferSize: SizeT): SizeT

Read into the given native buffer. It will check for errors, but does not indicate end of file.

buffer

The buffer to read into

size

The size of individual items (in bytes)

bufferSize

The maximum amount of items to be read.

open override fun read(): Int

Read a single byte value. This is not buffered in any way, and possibly slow.

-1 if end of file, otherwise the byte value

open override fun read(buffer: ByteArray, offset: Int, len: Int): Int

fun read(buffer: UByteArray, offset: Int = 0, len: Int = buffer.size - offset): Int

Read an array of bytes from the file.

The amount of bytes read or -1 if end of file.

buffer

The buffer to read into

offset

The starting point in the buffer to start reading

len
