The RRawFile provides read-only access to local and remote files.

Data can be read either byte-wise or line-wise. The RRawFile base class provides line-wise access and buffering for byte-wise access. Derived classes provide the low-level read operations, e.g. from a local file system or from a web server. The RRawFile is used for non-ROOT RDataSource implementations and for RNTuple.

Files are addressed by URL consisting of a transport protocol part and a location, like file:///path/to/data If the transport protocol part and the :// separator are missing, the default protocol is local file. Files are opened when required (on reading, getting file size) and closed on object destruction.

RRawFiles manage system respources and are therefore made non-copyable. They can be explicitly cloned though.

◆ GetSize()

std::uint64_t ROOT::Internal::RRawFile::GetSize ( )

◆ Map()

void * ROOT::Internal::RRawFile::Map	(	size_t	nbytes,
		std::uint64_t	offset,
		std::uint64_t &	mapdOffset
	)

Memory mapping according to POSIX standard; in particular, new mappings of the same range replace older ones.

Mappings need to be aligned at page boundaries, therefore the real offset can be smaller than the desired value. Users become owner of the address returned by Map() and are responsible for calling Unmap() with the full length.

Definition at line 135 of file RRawFile.cxx.

◆ MapImpl()

void * ROOT::Internal::RRawFile::MapImpl	(	size_t	nbytes,
		std::uint64_t	offset,
		std::uint64_t &	mapdOffset
	)

protectedvirtual

If a derived class supports mmap, the MapImpl and UnmapImpl calls are supposed to be implemented, too The default implementation throws an error.

Reimplemented in ROOT::Internal::RRawFileUnix.

Definition at line 95 of file RRawFile.cxx.

◆ OpenImpl()

virtual void ROOT::Internal::RRawFile::OpenImpl ( )

protectedpure virtual

OpenImpl() is called at most once and before any call to either DoReadAt or DoGetSize.

If fOptions.fBlocksize is negative, derived classes are responsible to set a sensible value. After a call to OpenImpl(), fOptions.fBlocksize must be larger or equal to zero.

virtual size_t ROOT::Internal::RRawFile::ReadAtImpl	(	void *	buffer,
		size_t	nbytes,
		std::uint64_t	offset
	)

protectedpure virtual

Derived classes should implement low-level reading without buffering.

Short reads indicate the end of the file, therefore derived classes should return nbytes bytes if available.
