Struct std::io::Stdout

1.0.0· source[]
pub struct Stdout { /* private fields */ }
Expand description

A handle to the global standard output stream of the current process.

Each handle shares a global buffer of data to be written to the standard output stream. Access is also synchronized via a lock and explicit control over locking is available via the lock method.

Created by the io::stdout method.

Note: Windows Portability Consideration

When operating in a console, the Windows implementation of this stream does not support non-UTF-8 byte sequences. Attempting to write bytes that are not valid UTF-8 will return an error.

Implementations

Locks this handle to the standard output stream, returning a writable guard.

The lock is released when the returned lock goes out of scope. The returned guard also implements the Write trait for writing data.

Examples
use std::io::{self, Write};

fn main() -> io::Result<()> {
    let stdout = io::stdout();
    let mut handle = stdout.lock();

    handle.write_all(b"hello world")?;

    Ok(())
}
Run

Consumes this handle to the standard output stream, locking the shared global buffer associated with the stream and returning a writable guard.

The lock is released when the returned lock goes out of scope. The returned guard also implements the Write trait for writing data.

It is often simpler to directly get a locked handle using the io::stdout_locked function instead, unless nearby code also needs to use an unlocked handle.

Examples
#![feature(stdio_locked)]
use std::io::{self, Write};

fn main() -> io::Result<()> {
    let mut handle = io::stdout().into_locked();

    handle.write_all(b"hello world")?;

    Ok(())
}
Run
