Stdout represents the IOSink for either stdout or stderr.

It provides a blocking IOSink, so using this to write will block until the output is written.

In some situations this blocking behavior is undesirable as it does not provide the same non-blocking behavior as dart:io in general exposes. Use the property nonBlocking to get an IOSink which has the non-blocking behavior.

This class can also be used to check whether stdout or stderr is connected to a terminal and query some terminal properties.

Methods

add(List<int> data) → void
inherited
Adds data to the target consumer, ignoring encoding.
addError(error, [StackTrace stackTrace]) → void
inherited
Passes the error to the target consumer as an error event.
addStream(Stream<List<int>> stream) → Future
inherited
Adds all elements of the given stream to this.
close() → Future
inherited
Close the target consumer.
flush() → Future
inherited
Returns a Future that completes once all buffered data is accepted by the to underlying StreamConsumer.
write(object) → void
inherited
Converts obj to a String by invoking Object.toString and adds the encoding of the result to the target consumer.
writeAll(objects, [sep = ""]) → void
inherited
Iterates over the given objects and writes them in sequence.
writeCharCode(int charCode) → void
inherited
Writes the charCode to this.
writeln([object = ""]) → void
inherited
Converts obj to a String by invoking Object.toString and writes the result to this, followed by a newline.
