39 File setstdiomode.h
40 
41 Utility for setting the mode of stdin/stdout and cin/cout to either
42 binary or text mode.
43 
44 The function actually changes the mode of stdin/out but since these
45 use the same file id as cin/cout it changes the mode of those as well.
46 
47 This function is only really relevant to Windows OS. *nixes use binary
48 IO mode all the time (there is no distinction beween binary and text mode).
49 The function does nothing under *nixes.
50 
51 An argument is needed to control the mode. This is should be a
52 platform independent type. I have used std::ios_base::openmode for this
53 purpose. When a value of std::ios_base::binary is passed as a parameter
54 then the stdio and cin/out streams are set to binary mode (on Windows OS).
55 
56 Return value: as _setmode function for Windows (-1 indicates error)
57  0 for *nix (always succeeds)
