@class wxTextInputStream
This class provides functions that reads text data using an input stream,
allowing you to read text, floats, and integers.
The wxTextInputStream correctly reads text files (or streams) in DOS,
Macintosh and Unix formats and reports a single newline char as a line
ending.
wxTextInputStream::operator>>() is overloaded and you can use this class
like a standard C++ iostream. Note, however, that the arguments are the
fixed size types wxUint32, wxInt32 etc and on a typical 32-bit computer,
none of these match to the "long" type (wxInt32 is defined as int on 32-bit
architectures) so that you cannot use long. To avoid problems (here and
elsewhere), make use of wxInt32, wxUint32 and similar types.
If you're scanning through a file using wxTextInputStream, you should check
for @c EOF @b before reading the next item (word / number), because
otherwise the last item may get lost. You should however be prepared to
receive an empty item (empty string / zero number) at the end of file,
especially on Windows systems. This is unavoidable because most (but not
all) files end with whitespace (i.e. usually a newline).
For example:
@code
wxFileInputStream input( "mytext.txt" );
wxTextInputStream text( input );
wxUint8 i1;
float f2;
wxString line;
text >> i1; // read a 8 bit integer.
text >> i1 >> f2; // read a 8 bit integer followed by float.
text >> line; // read a text line

applied: if the number starts with @c 0x it is considered to be in base
16, if it starts with 0 - in base 8 and in base 10 otherwise. Note that
you may not want to specify the base 0 if you are parsing the numbers
which may have leading zeroes as they can yield unexpected (to the user
not familiar with C) results.
