• public virtual bool eos ()
  Tests if there are bytes left to read on the this object.
• public virtual int flush (Cancellable? cancellable = null) throws Error
  Flushes any buffered data to the stream's backing store.
• public virtual ssize_t read (char[] buffer, Cancellable? cancellable = null) throws Error
  Attempts to read up to buffer.length bytes from this into buffer.
• public IOStream? ref_base_stream ()
  Returns the IOStream for this.
• public void set_base_stream (IOStream base_stream)
  Replaces the IOStream passed to Stream with base_stream.
• public virtual ssize_t write (char[] buffer, Cancellable? cancellable = null) throws Error
  Attempts to write up to buffer.length bytes of buffer into this.
• public ssize_t write_string (string string, Cancellable? cancellable = null) throws Error
