Note: can be dangerous because it does not take word boundaries into account!
require
  • is_connected
local_can_disconnect: BOOLEAN
is True
constant attribute
{}
True if this stream can be safely disconnected (without data loss, etc.)
without taking into account the state of the underlying stream.

do_detach
effective procedure
Used by the underlying stream to require not to be filtered anymore
ensure
  • stream = Void

effective procedure
{ANY}
require
  • is_connected
  • not is_filtered and then can_put_character(c)
flush
effective procedure

effective function
{}
ensure
  • yes_indeed_it_is_the_same_object: Result.to_pointer = to_pointer

has_stream_pointer: BOOLEAN
effective function
True if that stream can be associated to some Back-end-meaningful stream pointer.
