File Access Classes
FS_Reader Methods
The FS_Reader class takes a file name in its constructor, and
provides a C++ stream for reading the specified file. The difference between
using FS_Reader and an ifstream directly is that FS_Reader
supports an extensible architecture for reading files from sources other than
on disk. For example, if the given file name begins with "http:", the
FS_Reader will retrieve the file from a web server. If the file
name begins with "opdef:" or "oplib:", and your code is running from within
Houdini, the FS_Reader will access a file embbedded in the operator
type library or operator definition speficied by the file name.
Most of the functions of this class are for internal use only. Only
the functions listed below should be used in your code.
