Creation methods:

• protected Stream ()

Methods:

• public void @construct (int64 start, int64 end)
  Initializes a new stream with bounds start and end .
• public virtual int close ()
  Closes the stream.
• public virtual bool eos ()
  Tests the end-of-stream indicator for this .
• public virtual int flush ()
  Sync's the stream to disk.
• public virtual int64 length ()
  Gets the length of the stream.
• public virtual ssize_t read (uint8[] buf)
  Attempts to read up to buf.length bytes from this into buf.
• public virtual int reset ()
  Resets the stream.
• public virtual int64 seek (int64 offset, SeekWhence whence)
  Repositions the offset of the stream this to the argument offset according to the directive whence as follows:
• public void set_bounds (int64 start, int64 end)
  Set the bounds on a stream.
• public virtual Stream substream (int64 start, int64 end)
  Creates a new substream of this with bounds start and end.
• public virtual int64 tell ()
  Gets the current offset within the stream.
• public virtual ssize_t write (uint8[] buf)
  Attempts to write up to buf.length bytes of buf to this.
• public ssize_t write_string (string str)
  Writes string to this.
• public int64 write_to_stream (Stream dest)
  Attempts to write the source stream to the destination stream.
• public int64 writev (StreamIOVector[] vector)
