#include <ClanLib/core.h>

Construction:

CL_OutputSource

Output Source constructor.

Attributes:

tell	Returns current position in output source.
size	Returns the size of the output source.

Operations:

set_system_mode	Changes output data endianess to the local systems mode.
set_big_endian_mode	Changes output data endianess to big endian mode.
set_little_endian_mode	Changes output data endianess to little endian mode. This is the default setting.
write_int64	Writes a signed 64 bit integer to output source.
write_uint64	Writes an unsigned 64 bit integer to output source.
write_int32	Writes a signed 32 bit integer to output source.
write_uint32	Writes an unsigned 32 bit integer to output source.
write_int16	Writes a signed 16 bit integer to output source.
write_uint16	Writes an unsigned 16 bit integer to output source.
write_int8	Writes a signed 8 bit integer to output source.
write_uint8	Writes an unsigned 8 bit integer to output source.
write_short16	Writes a signed 16 bit integer (short) to output source.
write_ushort16	Writes an unsigned 16 bit integer (short) to output source.
write_char8	Writes a signed 8 bit integer (char) to output source.
write_uchar8	Writes an unsigned 8 bit integer (char) to output source.
write_float32	Writes an ieee format floating point to output source.
write_float64	Writes an ieee format double to output source.
write_bool8	Writes a bool to output source.
write_string	Writes a string to the output source.
write	Writes larger amounts of data (no endian and 64 bit conversion).
open	Opens the output source. By default, it is open.
close	Closes the output source.
clone	Make a copy of the current outputsource, standing at the same position.

Implementation:

little_endian_mode

Detailed description:

!group=Core/IO Data! !header=core.h!

CL_OutputSource is used to write data to different types of input sources. In most cases, this is regular files and ClanLib zlib compressed datafiles.

To access some system specific output source types, such as datafiles and regular ones, use the static create functions in the CL_OutputSourceProvider class.
