std::process::ChildStdout - Rust
Description: API documentation for the Rust `ChildStdout` struct in crate `std`.
Keywords: rust, rustlang, rust-lang, ChildStdout

# Struct std::process::ChildStdout 1.0.0 [−] [src]

    pub struct ChildStdout { /* fields omitted */ }

A handle to a child process's standard output (stdout).

This struct is used in the `stdout` field on `Child`.

When an instance of `ChildStdout` is dropped, the `ChildStdout`'s underlying file handle will be closed.

## Trait Implementations

### `impl Read for ChildStdout`
[src]

#### `fn read(&mut self, buf: &mut [u8]) -> Result<usize>`
[src]

Pull some bytes from this source into the specified buffer, returning how many bytes were read. Read more

#### `unsafe fn initializer(&self) -> Initializer`
[src]

🔬 This is a nightly-only experimental API. (`read_initializer` #42788)

Determines if this `Read`er can work with buffers of uninitialized memory. Read more

#### `fn read_to_end(&mut self, buf: &mut Vec<u8>) -> Result<usize>`
[src]

Read all bytes until EOF in this source, placing them into `buf`. Read more

#### `fn read_to_string(&mut self, buf: &mut String) -> Result<usize>`
[src]

Read all bytes until EOF in this source, placing them into `buf`. Read more

#### `fn read_exact(&mut self, buf: &mut [u8]) -> Result<()>`
1.6.0
[src]

Read the exact number of bytes required to fill `buf`. Read more

## Search Tricks

Prefix searches with a type followed by a colon (e.g. `fn:`) to restrict the search to a given type.

Accepted types are: `fn`, `mod`, `struct`, `enum`, `trait`, `type`, `macro`, and `const`.

Search functions by type signature (e.g. `vec -> usize` or `* -> vec`)
