非阻塞std :: getline,如果没有输入则退出

标签: c++ istream

目前我有一个从标准输入读取的程序,如果没有输入,程序偶尔需要继续运行,通常这是一个测试脚本,没有“输入”可以这么说。

program -v1 -v2 -v3 <input >output

v1 - v3分别是命令行参数

基本上,如果没有给出'input',程序会将命令行参数及其各自的含义吐出来,然后退出。

但是目前如果给它一个空的测试文件,或者只是在运行std :: getline上的块后按Enter键运行,我用来输入命令。

while(std::getline(std::cin,foo)
{do stuff}

其中foo是一个字符串。

如何在没有输入的情况下至少运行一次do stuff然后退出?如果输入,do stuff对于标准输入中的每一行都会出现一次。

是否会切换到do-while循环,并检查预循环是否有任何输入?

这样的东西
if cin empty
set flag

do
 {do stuff
 check flag}
while(getline)

或者是非阻塞的,在c ++中是不可能的?

这个问题似乎反复重复,但我找不到明确的答案,甚至找不到平台无关的答案(这个程序本质上是学术性的,在windows上编码并在unix上测试过)。

异步使用std :: cin可能是使其工作的唯一方法,因为iostream并非设计为具有非阻塞行为。这是一个例子:

Async Example 1 Async Example 2 (printing a space out every 1/10th of a second while accepting CLI input at the same time)

代码已注释,因此应易于理解。它是一个线程安全的类,允许您使用std :: cin异步获取一行。

非常容易用于异步CLI getline,在我的计算机上占用0%的CPU。它在Visual Studio 2015 c ++ Win32控制台调试和发布模式下在Windows 10上运行良好。如果它在你的操作系统或环境中不起作用,那就太糟糕了。

答案 1 :(得分:1)

您可以使用cin.peek检查是否有任何要阅读的内容,然后调用getline(如果有)。虽然没有非阻塞getline这样的东西。

答案 2 :(得分:0)

您可以使用istream::readsome()方法轻松地使非阻塞等效于std :: getline。这将读取可用输入,直到最大缓冲区大小,而不会阻塞。

此函数将始终立即返回,但如果流中有一行,则会捕获一行。分行存储在静态变量中,直到下一次调用为止。

bool getline_async(std::istream& is, std::string& str, char delim = '\n') {

    static std::string lineSoFar;
    char inChar;
    int charsRead = 0;
    bool lineRead = false;
    str = "";

    do {
        charsRead = is.readsome(&inChar, 1);
        if (charsRead == 1) {
            // if the delimiter is read then return the string so far
            if (inChar == delim) {
                str = lineSoFar;
                lineSoFar = "";
                lineRead = true;
            } else {  // otherwise add it to the string so far
                lineSoFar.append(1, inChar);
            }
        }
    } while (charsRead != 0 && !lineRead);

    return lineRead;
}
