<H2>Description</H2>

<P>The Iostreams library provides three overloads of the function template <CODE>close</CODE>.</P>

<P>The first overload of <CODE>close</CODE> takes a single Device argument. It allows a user to close a Device without worrying whether the Device controls a single sequence or two sequences:</P>

<PRE CLASS="broken_ie"><SPAN CLASS="keyword">namespace</SPAN> boost { <SPAN CLASS="keyword">namespace</SPAN> iostreams {
              
<SPAN CLASS="keyword">template</SPAN>&lt;<SPAN CLASS="keyword">typename</SPAN> <A CLASS="documented" HREF="#template_params">T</A>&gt;     
<SPAN CLASS="keyword">void</SPAN> <A CLASS="documented" HREF="#close_device">close</A>(T&amp; t);

} } <SPAN CLASS="comment">// End namespace boost::io</SPAN></PRE>


<P>The other two overloads of <CODE>close</CODE> should rarely be called by library users; they are invoked automatically by the library to indicate to <A HREF="../guide/concepts.html#filter_concepts">Filters</A> and <A HREF="../guide/concepts.html#device_concepts">Devices</A> that a sequence of data is about to end. This gives Filters and Devices an opportunity to free resources or to reset their states in preparation for a new character sequence. Filters and Devices which perform output can use the opportunity to write additional data to the end of a stream.
</P>

<P>The details regarding when and how <CODE>close</CODE> is invoked are a bit messy:</P>

<A NAME="when"></A>
<H2>When is <CODE>close</CODE> invoked?</H2>

<H4><CODE>stream_buffer</CODE> and <CODE>stream</CODE></H4>

<P>When an instance of <CODE>stream_buffer</CODE> or <CODE>stream</CODE> based on a Device <CODE>d</CODE> is closed using member function <CODE>close</CODE>, the following sequence of functions calls is made:<P>
<PRE CLASS="broken_ie">    boost::iostreams::close(d, std::ios_base::in);
    boost::iostreams::close(d, std::ios_base::out);</PRE>
<P>The effect, if <CODE>D</CODE> is <A HREF="../concepts/closable.html">Closable</A> and controls a single sequence, is as follows:</P>
<PRE CLASS="broken_ie">    d.close();</PRE>
<P>If <CODE>D</CODE> is <A HREF="../concepts/closable.html">Closable</A> and controls separate input and output sequences, the effect is as follows:</P>
<PRE CLASS="broken_ie">    d.close(std::ios_base::in);
    d.close(std::ios_base::out);</PRE>

<P>(<I>See</I> the semantics of <CODE>close</CODE> for <A HREF="#close_device">Device types</A>, below.)

    A <A HREF="../classes/filtering_streambuf.html"><CODE>filtering_streambuf</CODE></A> or <A HREF="../classes/filtering_stream.html"><CODE>filtering_stream</CODE></A> is considered to be <I>closed</I> if its lifetime ends while its chain is complete or if its terminal Device is removed using <CODE>pop</CODE> or <CODE>reset</CODE>. When this occurs, the following sequence of calls is made, assuming that the underlying sequence of Filters and Devices is <CODE>f<SUB>1</SUB></CODE>, <CODE>f<SUB>1</SUB></CODE>, ..., <CODE>f<SUB>n-1</SUB></CODE>, <CODE>d</CODE> and the corresponding sequence of stream buffers is <CODE>buf<SUB>1</SUB></CODE>, <CODE>buf<SUB>2</SUB></CODE>, ..., <CODE>buf<SUB>n-1</SUB></CODE>, <CODE>buf<SUB>n</SUB></CODE>:<A CLASS='footnote_ref' NAME='note_1_ref' HREF="#note_1"><SUP>[1]</SUP></A>
