# BasicIO

#### object BasicIO extends AnyRef

This object contains factories for ProcessIO, which can be used to control the I/O of a Process when a ProcessBuilder is started with the `run` command.

It also contains some helper methods that can be used to in the creation of `ProcessIO`.

It is used by other classes in the package in the implementation of various features, but can also be used by client code.

3. #### final def ##(): Int

   Equivalent to `x.hashCode` except for boxed numeric types and `null`.

   Equivalent to `x.hashCode` except for boxed numeric types and `null`. For numerics, it returns a hash value which is consistent with value equality: if two value type instances compare as true, then ## will produce the same hash value for each of them. For `null` returns a hashcode where `null.hashCode` throws a `NullPointerException`.

   returns

     a hash value consistent with ==

   Size of the buffer used in all the functions that copy data

7. #### final val Newline: String

8. #### def apply(withIn: Boolean, log: ProcessLogger): ProcessIO

   Creates a `ProcessIO` from a `ProcessLogger` .

   Creates a `ProcessIO` from a `ProcessLogger` . It can attach the process input to stdin.

   withIn

     True if the process input should be attached to stdin.

   log

9. #### def apply(withIn: Boolean, buffer: StringBuffer, log: Option[ProcessLogger]): ProcessIO

   Creates a `ProcessIO` that appends its output to a `StringBuffer`.

   Creates a `ProcessIO` that appends its output to a `StringBuffer`. It can attach the process input to stdin, and it will either send the error stream to stderr, or to a `ProcessLogger`.

   For example, the `ProcessIO` created by the function below will store the normal output on the buffer provided, and print all error on stderr. The input will be read from stdin.

       import scala.sys.process.{BasicIO, ProcessLogger}
       val printer = ProcessLogger(println(_))
       def appendToBuffer(b: StringBuffer) = BasicIO(true, b, Some(printer))

   withIn

     True if the process input should be attached to stdin.

   buffer

     A `StringBuffer` which will receive the process normal output.

   log

     An optional `ProcessLogger` to which the output should be sent. If `None`, output will be sent to stderr.

   returns

     A `ProcessIO` with the characteristics above.

10. #### def apply(withIn: Boolean, output: (String) ⇒ Unit, log: Option[ProcessLogger]): ProcessIO

    Creates a `ProcessIO` from a function `String => Unit`.

    Creates a `ProcessIO` from a function `String => Unit`. It can attach the process input to stdin, and it will either send the error stream to stderr, or to a `ProcessLogger`.

    For example, the `ProcessIO` created below will print all normal output while ignoring all error output. No input will be provided.

        import scala.sys.process.BasicIO
        val errToDevNull = BasicIO(false, println(_), None)

    withIn

      True if the process input should be attached to stdin.

    output

      A function that will be called with the process output.

    log

      An optional `ProcessLogger` to which the output should be sent. If `None`, output will be sent to stderr.

    returns

      A `ProcessIO` with the characteristics above.

11. #### final def asInstanceOf[T0]: T0

    Cast the receiver object to be of type `T0`.

    Cast the receiver object to be of type `T0`.

    Note that the success of a cast at runtime is modulo Scala's erasure semantics. Therefore the expression `1.asInstanceOf[String]` will throw a `ClassCastException` at runtime, while the expression `List(1).asInstanceOf[List[String]]` will not. In the latter example, because the type argument is erased as part of compilation it is not possible to check whether the contents of the list are of the requested type.

    returns

      the receiver object.

    Definition Classes
      Any
    Exceptions thrown
      ClassCastException

      if the receiver object is not an instance of the erasure of type `T0`.

12. #### def clone(): AnyRef

    Create a copy of the receiver object.

    Create a copy of the receiver object.

    The default implementation of the `clone` method is platform dependent.

    returns

      a copy of the receiver object.

13. #### def close(c: Closeable): Unit

    Closes a `Closeable` without throwing an exception

14. #### def connectToIn(o: OutputStream): Unit

    Copy contents of stdin to the `OutputStream`.

15. #### final def eq(arg0: AnyRef): Boolean

    Tests whether the argument (`arg0`) is a reference to the receiver object (`this`).

    Tests whether the argument (`arg0`) is a reference to the receiver object (`this`).

    The `eq` method implements an equivalence relation on non-null instances of `AnyRef`, and has three additional properties:

    - It is consistent: for any non-null instances `x` and `y` of type `AnyRef`, multiple invocations of `x.eq(y)` consistently returns `true` or consistently returns `false`.
    - For any non-null instance `x` of type `AnyRef`, `x.eq(null)` and `null.eq(x)` returns `false`.
    - `null.eq(null)` returns `true`.

    When overriding the `equals` or `hashCode` methods, it is important to ensure that their behavior is consistent with reference equality. Therefore, if two objects are references to each other (`o1 eq o2`), they should be equal to each other (`o1 == o2`) and they should hash to the same value (`o1.hashCode == o2.hashCode`).

    returns

      `true` if the argument is a reference to the receiver object; `false` otherwise.

16. #### def equals(arg0: Any): Boolean

    The equality method for reference types.

    The equality method for reference types. Default implementation delegates to `eq`.

    See also `equals` in Any.

17. #### def finalize(): Unit

    Called by the garbage collector on the receiver object when there are no more references to the object.

    Called by the garbage collector on the receiver object when there are no more references to the object.

    The details of when and if the `finalize` method is invoked, as well as the interaction between `finalize` and non-local returns and exceptions, are all platform dependent.

22. #### final def isInstanceOf[T0]: Boolean

    Test whether the dynamic type of the receiver object is `T0`.

    Test whether the dynamic type of the receiver object is `T0`.

    Note that the result of the test is modulo Scala's erasure semantics. Therefore the expression `1.isInstanceOf[String]` will return `false`, while the expression `List(1).isInstanceOf[List[String]]` will return `true`. In the latter example, because the type argument is erased as part of compilation it is not possible to check whether the contents of the list are of the specified type.

    returns

      `true` if the receiver object is an instance of erasure of type `T0`; `false` otherwise.
