    nsIBinaryOutputStream

    This interface allows writing of primitive data types (integers, floating-point values, booleans, and so on.) to a stream in a binary, untagged, fixed-endianness format. This might be used, for example, to implement network protocols or to produce architecture-neutral binary disk files, that is ones that can be read and written by both big-endian and little-endian platforms. Output is written in big-endian order (high-order byte first), as this is traditional network order.

    Methods

    setOutputStream()

    Sets the stream to which output is directed.

    void setOutputStream(
  in nsIOutputStream aOutputStream
);
    Parameters
    aOutputStream
    Instance of the nsIOutputStream object to which output should be directed.

    write8()

    Writes an 8-bit integer to the stream.

    void write8(
  in PRUint8 aByte
);
    Parameters
    aByte
    The byte to write to the stream.

    write16()

    Writes a 16-bit integer to the stream.

    void write16(
  in PRUint16 a16
);
    Parameters
    a16
    The 16-bit integer to write to the stream.

    write32()

    Writes a 32-bit integer to the stream.

    void write32(
  in PRUint32 a32
);
    Parameters
    a32
    The 32-bit integer to write to the stream.

    write64()

    Writes a 64-bit integer to the stream.

    void write64(
  in PRUint64 a64
);
    Parameters
    a64
    The 64-bit integer to write to the stream.

    writeBoolean()

    Writes a boolean value (as a byte) to the stream.

    void writeBoolean(
  in PRBool aBoolean
);
    Parameters
    aBoolean
    The Boolean value to write to the stream; the value will consist of one byte in the output stream.

    writeByteArray()

    Writes an opaque byte array to the stream.

    void writeByteArray(
  [array, size_is(aLength)] in PRUint8 aBytes,
  in PRUint32 aLength
);
    Parameters
    aBytes
    The bytes to write to the stream.
    aLength
    The number of bytes to write to the stream.

    writeBytes()

    Writes an opaque byte array to the stream.

    void writeBytes(
  [size_is(aLength)] in string aString,
  in PRUint32 aLength
);
    Parameters
    aString
    The byte array to write to the stream.
    aLength
    The number of bytes to write to the stream.

    writeDouble()

    Writes a double precision floating point number to the stream.

    void writeDouble(
  in double aDouble
);
    Parameters
    aDouble
    The double to write to the stream.

    writeFloat()

    Writes a floating point number to the stream.

    void writeFloat(
  in float aFloat
);
    Parameters
    aFloat
    The floating point value to write to the stream.

    writeStringZ()

    Writes an 8-bit pascal style string to the stream. The output data consists of a 32-bit length field, followed by that many 8-bit characters.

    void writeStringZ(
  in string aString
);
    Parameters
    aString
    The string to write to the stream.

    writeUtf8Z()

    Writes an 8-bit pascal style string (UTF8-encoded) to the stream. The output data consists of a 32-bit length field, followed by that many 8-bit characters.

    void writeUtf8Z(
  in wstring aString
);
    Parameters
    aString
    The string to write to the stream.

    writeWStringZ()

    Writes a 16-bit pascal style string to the stream. The output data consists of a 32-bit length field, followed by that many PRUnichars.

    void writeWStringZ(
  in wstring aString
);
    Parameters
    aString
    The string to write to the stream.
