Why not descend. Why not exceed tFileStream, its natural. I want read
text file in the same way like binary file.
Because then you must also descend THandlestream, TPipeStream,
TIOStream, TDecompressionStream, TMemorystream, TDecodestream
etc etc etc.
Streams are more than just for files.
Why must, for me my tTextStream is for readin text file, of course we
may implemented readln in tBufStream
While complicated, when it only 2 procedure should be added. Form me
tTextStream should be used to fast and simple read text file (or
application input stream) and no others, no allocate nor reallocate
buffer. only simple read (and write).
It's not so simple.
It is.I've implemented it. Of course if we want to make universal
bufStream then take it more work.
3. There is already a buffered stream (TBufStream, unit bufstream),
I suggest you enhance that.
Sorry, i don;t know about it. Its simple to implemented it.
But why it is in separated unit, nobody know about it (or to few).
F.e. Lazarus has own implementation of buffering.
If we want to make faster programs, object like my should be in core
unit, then everybody use them, in other case every make own
implementation.
Maybe, but then we should put all streams in Classes, and we're not
going to
do that.
But tBufStream is Owner of stream, for me is separated idea
