/**
|
|
* nsIPipe represents an in-process buffer that can be read using nsIInputStream
|
|
* and written using nsIOutputStream. The reader and writer of a pipe do not
|
|
* have to be on the same thread. As a result, the pipe is an ideal mechanism
|
|
* to bridge data exchange between two threads. For example, a worker thread
|
|
* might write data to a pipe from which the main thread will read.
|
|
*
|
|
* Each end of the pipe can be either blocking or non-blocking. Recall that a
|
|
* non-blocking stream will return NS_BASE_STREAM_WOULD_BLOCK if it cannot be
|
|
* read or written to without blocking the calling thread. For example, if you
|
|
* try to read from an empty pipe that has not yet been closed, then if that
|
|
* pipe's input end is non-blocking, then the read call will fail immediately
|
|
* with NS_BASE_STREAM_WOULD_BLOCK as the error condition. However, if that
|
|
* pipe's input end is blocking, then the read call will not return until the
|
|
* pipe has data or until the pipe is closed. This example presumes that the
|
|
* pipe is being filled asynchronously on some background thread.
|
|
*
|
|
* The pipe supports nsIAsyncInputStream and nsIAsyncOutputStream, which give
|
|
* the user of a non-blocking pipe the ability to wait for the pipe to become
|
|
* ready again. For example, in the case of an empty non-blocking pipe, the
|
|
* user can call AsyncWait on the input end of the pipe to be notified when
|
|
* the pipe has data to read (or when the pipe becomes closed).
|
|
*
|
|
* NS_NewPipe2 and NS_NewPipe provide convenient pipe constructors. In most
|
|
* cases nsIPipe is not actually used. It is usually enough to just get
|
|
* references to the pipe's input and output end. In which case, the pipe is
|
|
* automatically closed when the respective pipe ends are released.
