    00039 File setstdiomode.h
    00040
    00041 Utility for setting the mode of stdin/stdout and cin/cout to either
    00042 binary or text mode.
    00043
    00044 The function actually changes the mode of stdin/out but since these
    00045 use the same file id as cin/cout it changes the mode of those as well.
    00046
    00047 This function is only really relevant to Windows OS. *nixes use binary
    00048 IO mode all the time (there is no distinction beween binary and text mode).
    00049 The function does nothing under *nixes.
    00050
    00051 An argument is needed to control the mode. This is should be a
    00052 platform independent type. I have used std::ios_base::openmode for this
    00053 purpose. When a value of std::ios_base::binary is passed as a parameter
    00054 then the stdio and cin/out streams are set to binary mode (on Windows OS).
    00055
    00056 Return value: as _setmode function for Windows (-1 indicates error)
    00057               0 for *nix (always succeeds)
