Detailed Description

This class is a specialization of InputStream that reads from a file on disk.

It wraps a file in the common InputStream interface and therefore allows to use generic classes or functions that accept such a stream, with a file on disk as the data source.

In addition to the virtual functions inherited from InputStream, FileInputStream adds a function to specify the file to open.

SFML resource classes can usually be loaded directly from a filename, so this class shouldn't be useful to you unless you create your own algorithms that operate on a InputStream.

Usage example:

void process(InputStream& stream);
 
FileStream stream;
if (stream.open("some_file.dat"))
   process(stream);

InputStream, MemoryStream
