Constructor & Destructor Documentation

casacore::BlockInput::BlockInput ( const char *  ,
int  ,
int  = 1,
FITSErrorHandler  errhandler = FITSError::defaultHandler 
)

Construction can be done either from a filename or from a file descriptor.

The remaining arguments are the the logical record size and number of records that make up a physical record followed by the output stream that is used to write error messages to.

Member Function Documentation

virtual char* casacore::BlockInput::read ( )
virtual

read the next logical record or first skip N logical records and then read the next one.

(note it is not possible to skip a record without reading a record).
Caution: these functions return a pointer to an internal record; The user must make sure that after destruction of this class no dangling pointers are left;

virtual char* casacore::BlockInput::skip ( int  )
virtual

Reimplemented in casacore::FitsDiskInput.
