# Struct ethcore_util::standard::io::Stdout 1.0.0 [−] [src]

    pub struct Stdout { /* fields omitted */ }

A handle to the global standard output stream of the current process.

Each handle shares a global buffer of data to be written to the standard output stream. Access is also synchronized via a lock and explicit control over locking is available via the `lock` method.

Created by the `io::stdout` method.

## Methods

### `impl Stdout`

#### `fn lock(&self) -> StdoutLock`

Locks this handle to the standard output stream, returning a writable guard.

The lock is released when the returned lock goes out of scope. The returned guard also implements the `Write` trait for writing data.

# Examples

    use std::io::{self, Write};

    let stdout = io::stdout();
    let mut handle = stdout.lock();

    try!(handle.write(b"hello world"));

## Trait Implementations

### `impl Write for Stdout`

#### `fn write(&mut self, buf: &[u8]) -> Result<usize, Error>`

Write a buffer into this object, returning how many bytes were written. Read more

#### `fn flush(&mut self) -> Result<(), Error>`

Flush this output stream, ensuring that all intermediately buffered contents reach their destination. Read more

#### `fn write_all(&mut self, buf: &[u8]) -> Result<(), Error>`

Attempts to write an entire buffer into this write. Read more

#### `fn write_fmt(&mut self, args: Arguments) -> Result<(), Error>`

Writes a formatted string into this writer, returning any error encountered. Read more

#### `fn by_ref(&mut self) -> &mut Self`

Creates a "by reference" adaptor for this instance of `Write`. Read more

## Search Tricks

Prefix searches with a type followed by a colon (e.g. `fn:`) to restrict the search to a given type.

Accepted types are: `fn`, `mod`, `struct`, `enum`, `trait`, `type`, `macro`, and `const`.

Search functions by type signature (e.g. `vec -> usize` or `* -> vec`)
