MirageFileStream is a basic unit of file access abstraction used in libMirage. It implements MirageStream interface to perform I/O operations.
A MirageFileStream is found at the bottom of all filter chains used by libMirage's image parsers and writers.
gboolean mirage_file_stream_open (MirageFileStream *self,const gchar *filename,gboolean writable,GError **error);
Opens the stream on the file pointed to by filename
. If writable
is FALSE, the stream is opened in read-only mode; if writable
 is
TRUE, the stream is opened in read-write mode.
| self | ||
| filename | name of file on which the stream is to be opened. | [in] | 
| writable | a boolean indicating whether stream should be opened for read/write access. | [in] | 
| error | location to store error, or  | [out][allow-none] | 
struct MirageFileStream;
All the fields in the MirageFileStream structure are private to the MirageFileStream implementation and should never be accessed directly.
