//! `std::io` provides Rust's basic I/O types,
//! for reading and writing to files, TCP, UDP,
//! and other types of sockets and pipes,
//! manipulating the file system, spawning processes.
//!
//! # Examples
//!
//! Some examples of obvious things you might want to do
//!
//! * Read lines from stdin
//!
//!     ```rust
//!     use std::old_io as io;
//!
//!     let mut stdin = io::stdin();
//!     for line in stdin.lock().lines() {
//!         print!("{}", line.unwrap());
//!     }
//!     ```
//!
//! * Read a complete file
//!
//!     ```rust
//!     use std::old_io::File;
//!
//!     let contents = File::open(&Path::new("message.txt")).read_to_end();
//!     ```
//!
//! * Write a line to a file
//!
//!     ```rust
//!     # #![allow(unused_must_use)]
//!     use std::old_io::File;
//!
//!     let mut file = File::create(&Path::new("message.txt"));
//!     file.write_all(b"hello, file!\n");
//!     # drop(file);
//!     # ::std::old_io::fs::unlink(&Path::new("message.txt"));
//!     ```
//!
//! * Iterate over the lines of a file
//!
//!     ```rust,no_run
//!     use std::old_io::BufferedReader;
//!     use std::old_io::File;
//!
//!     let path = Path::new("message.txt");
//!     let mut file = BufferedReader::new(File::open(&path));
//!     for line in file.lines() {
//!         print!("{}", line.unwrap());
//!     }
//!     ```
//!
//! * Pull the lines of a file into a vector of strings
//!
//!     ```rust,no_run
//!     use std::old_io::BufferedReader;
//!     use std::old_io::File;
//!
//!     let path = Path::new("message.txt");
//!     let mut file = BufferedReader::new(File::open(&path));
//!     let lines: Vec<String> = file.lines().map(|x| x.unwrap()).collect();
//!     ```
//!
//! * Make a simple TCP client connection and request
//!
//!     ```rust
//!     # #![allow(unused_must_use)]
//!     use std::old_io::TcpStream;
//!
//!     # // connection doesn't fail if a server is running on 8080
//!     # // locally, we still want to be type checking this code, so lets
//!     # // just stop it running (#11576)
//!     # if false {
//!     let mut socket = TcpStream::connect("127.0.0.1:8080").unwrap();
//!     socket.write_all(b"GET / HTTP/1.0\n\n");
//!     let response = socket.read_to_end();
//!     # }
//!     ```
//!
//! * Make a simple TCP server
//!
//!     ```rust
//!     # fn main() { }
//!     # fn foo() {
//!     # #![allow(dead_code)]
//!     use std::old_io::{TcpListener, TcpStream};
//!     use std::old_io::{Acceptor, Listener};
//!     use std::thread;
//!
//!     let listener = TcpListener::bind("127.0.0.1:80");
//!
//!     // bind the listener to the specified address
//!     let mut acceptor = listener.listen();
//!
//!     fn handle_client(mut stream: TcpStream) {
//!         // ...
//!     # &mut stream; // silence unused mutability/variable warning
//!     }
//!     // accept connections and process them, spawning a new tasks for each one
//!     for stream in acceptor.incoming() {
//!         match stream {
//!             Err(e) => { /* connection failed */ }
//!             Ok(stream) => {
//!                 thread::spawn(move|| {
//!                     // connection succeeded
//!                     handle_client(stream)
//!                 });
//!             }
//!         }
//!     }
//!
//!     // close the socket server
//!     drop(acceptor);
//!     # }
//!     ```
//!
//!
//! # Error Handling
//!
//! I/O is an area where nearly every operation can result in unexpected
//! errors. Errors should be painfully visible when they happen, and handling them
//! should be easy to work with. It should be convenient to handle specific I/O
//! errors, and it should also be convenient to not deal with I/O errors.
//!
//! Rust's I/O employs a combination of techniques to reduce boilerplate
//! while still providing feedback about errors. The basic strategy:
//!
//! * All I/O operations return `IoResult<T>` which is equivalent to
//!   `Result<T, IoError>`. The `Result` type is defined in the `std::result`
//!   module.
//! * If the `Result` type goes unused, then the compiler will by default emit a
//!   warning about the unused result. This is because `Result` has the
//!   `#[must_use]` attribute.
//! * Common traits are implemented for `IoResult`, e.g.
//!   `impl<R: Reader> Reader for IoResult<R>`, so that error values do not have
//!   to be 'unwrapped' before use.
//!
//! These features combine in the API to allow for expressions like
//! `File::create(&Path::new("diary.txt")).write_all(b"Met a girl.\n")`
//! without having to worry about whether "diary.txt" exists or whether
//! the write succeeds. As written, if either `new` or `write_line`
//! encounters an error then the result of the entire expression will
//! be an error.
//!
//! If you wanted to handle the error though you might write:
//!
//! ```rust
//! # #![allow(unused_must_use)]
//! use std::old_io::File;
//!
//! match File::create(&Path::new("diary.txt")).write_all(b"Met a girl.\n") {
//!     Ok(()) => (), // succeeded
//!     Err(e) => println!("failed to write to my diary: {}", e),
//! }
//!
//! # ::std::old_io::fs::unlink(&Path::new("diary.txt"));
//! ```
//!
//! So what actually happens if `create` encounters an error?
//! It's important to know that what `new` returns is not a `File`
//! but an `IoResult<File>`.  If the file does not open, then `new` will simply
//! return `Err(..)`. Because there is an implementation of `Writer` (the trait
//! required ultimately required for types to implement `write_line`) there is no
//! need to inspect or unwrap the `IoResult<File>` and we simply call `write_line`
//! on it. If `new` returned an `Err(..)` then the followup call to `write_line`
//! will also return an error.
//!
//! ## `try!`
//!
//! Explicit pattern matching on `IoResult`s can get quite verbose, especially
//! when performing many I/O operations. Some examples (like those above) are
//! alleviated with extra methods implemented on `IoResult`, but others have more
//! complex interdependencies among each I/O operation.
//!
//! The `try!` macro from `std::macros` is provided as a method of early-return
//! inside `Result`-returning functions. It expands to an early-return on `Err`
//! and otherwise unwraps the contained `Ok` value.
//!
//! If you wanted to read several `u32`s from a file and return their product:
//!
//! ```rust
//! use std::old_io::{File, IoResult};
//!
//! fn file_product(p: &Path) -> IoResult<u32> {
//!     let mut f = File::open(p);
//!     let x1 = try!(f.read_le_u32());
//!     let x2 = try!(f.read_le_u32());
//!
//!     Ok(x1 * x2)
//! }
//!
//! match file_product(&Path::new("numbers.bin")) {
//!     Ok(x) => println!("{}", x),
//!     Err(e) => println!("Failed to read numbers!")
//! }
//! ```
//!
//! With `try!` in `file_product`, each `read_le_u32` need not be directly
//! concerned with error handling; instead its caller is responsible for
//! responding to errors that may occur while attempting to read the numbers.
