.SH NAME
ticc_fdstream - Implementation of iostreams tied to File Descriptors

.SH DESCRIPTION

Short description. Needs work...

The main functions are:

.B fdostream( int fd );
.RS
Open an ouput stream connected to the
.B socket
with the id:
.B fd
.RE

.B fdistream( int fd );
.RS
Open an input stream connected to the
.B socket
with the id:
.B fd

Both
.B fdostream
and
.B fdistream
can be used as normal
.B ostream
and
.B istream
streams for output/input respectively.
.RE

.B bool nb_getline( istream& stream, string& s, int& timeout );

.B bool nb_putline( ostream& stream, const string& s, int& timeout );
.RS
read/write a string
.B s
from/to a
.I non-blocking
stream
.B stream
using
.B timeout
to terminate the operation when it fails to complete within
.B timeout

This only works for streams connected to a socket for which the operation mode
is set to non_blocking, using
.B fcntl( sock, F_SETFL, O_NONBLOCK )
or the like.
