open_memory_file(+Handle,
+Mode, -Stream, +Options)Open a memory-file as open_memory_file/3.
Options:
- encoding(+Encoding)
- Set the encoding for a memory file and the created stream. Encoding
names are the same as used with open/4.
By default, memoryfiles represent UTF-8 streams, making them capable of
storing arbitrary Unicode text. In practice the only alternative is
octet,
turning the memoryfile into binary mode. Please study SWI-Prolog Unicode
and encoding issues before using this option.
- free_on_close(+Bool)
- If
true (default false) and the memory file is
opened for reading, discard the file (see free_memory_file/1)
if the input is closed. This is used to realise open_chars_stream/2
in library(charsio).
