with_temp_ios
The standard function with_temp_ios
provides the following
interface:
fun with_temp_ios = (string handler = pk_get_unique_mem_ios_handler, uint<32> flags = 0, Pk_With_Ios_Fn do = lambda void:{}, int<32> endian = get_endian) void:
Where handler is the handler to use for the IO space.
flags are the flags passed to open
when opening the
temporary IO space. Defaults to 0, which means to use whatever
opening mode makes more sense depending on the kind of the IO space
and it’s permissions.
do is a function of type ()void
. Defaults to a function
that does nothing.
endian is the endianness to use by default when accessing the temporary IO space. Defaults to the current endianness.
When invoked it opens a IO space, like openset
, but takes care
of calling close
and restoring the original current IO space
and endianness after the lambda returns or raises an exception.
It can be used to deal with files without risk of leaking file descriptors.
