    \class QDataStream
    \inmodule QtCore
    \reentrant
    \brief The QDataStream class provides serialization of binary data
    to a QIODevice.

    \ingroup io


    A data stream is a binary stream of encoded information which is
    100% independent of the host computer's operating system, CPU or
    byte order. For example, a data stream that is written by a PC
    under Windows can be read by a Sun SPARC running Solaris.

    You can also use a data stream to read/write \l{raw}{raw
    unencoded binary data}. If you want a "parsing" input stream, see
    QTextStream.

    The QDataStream class implements the serialization of C++'s basic
    data types, like \c char, \c short, \c int, \c{char *}, etc.
    Serialization of more complex data is accomplished by breaking up
    the data into primitive units.

    A data stream cooperates closely with a QIODevice. A QIODevice
    represents an input/output medium one can read data from and write
    data to. The QFile class is an example of an I/O device.

    Example (write binary data to a stream):

    \snippet code/src_corelib_io_qdatastream.cpp 0

    Example (read binary data from a stream):

    \snippet code/src_corelib_io_qdatastream.cpp 1

    Each item written to the stream is written in a predefined binary
    format that varies depending on the item's type. Supported Qt
    types include QBrush, QColor, QDateTime, QFont, QPixmap, QString,
    QVariant and many others. For the complete list of all Qt types
    supporting data streaming see \l{Serializing Qt Data Types}.

    For integers it is best to always cast to a Qt integer type for
    writing, and to read back into the same Qt integer type. This
    ensures that you get integers of the size you want and insulates
    you from compiler and platform differences.

    To take one example, a \c{char *} string is written as a 32-bit
    integer equal to the length of the string including the '\\0' byte,
    followed by all the characters of the string including the
    '\\0' byte. When reading a \c{char *} string, 4 bytes are read to
    create the 32-bit length value, then that many characters for the
    \c {char *} string including the '\\0' terminator are read.

    The initial I/O device is usually set in the constructor, but can be
    changed with setDevice(). If you've reached the end of the data
    (or if there is no I/O device set) atEnd() will return true.

    \section1 Versioning

    QDataStream's binary format has evolved since Qt 1.0, and is
    likely to continue evolving to reflect changes done in Qt. When
    inputting or outputting complex types, it's very important to
    make sure that the same version of the stream (version()) is used
    for reading and writing. If you need both forward and backward
    compatibility, you can hardcode the version number in the
    application:

    \snippet code/src_corelib_io_qdatastream.cpp 2

    If you are producing a new binary data format, such as a file
    format for documents created by your application, you could use a
    QDataStream to write the data in a portable format. Typically, you
    would write a brief header containing a magic string and a version
    number to give yourself room for future expansion. For example:

    \snippet code/src_corelib_io_qdatastream.cpp 3

    Then read it in with:

    \snippet code/src_corelib_io_qdatastream.cpp 4

    You can select which byte order to use when serializing data. The
    default setting is big endian (MSB first). Changing it to little
    endian breaks the portability (unless the reader also changes to
    little endian). We recommend keeping this setting unless you have
    special requirements.

    \target raw
    \section1 Reading and Writing Raw Binary Data

    You may wish to read/write your own raw binary data to/from the
    data stream directly. Data may be read from the stream into a
    preallocated \c{char *} using readRawData(). Similarly data can be
    written to the stream using writeRawData(). Note that any
    encoding/decoding of the data must be done by you.

    A similar pair of functions is readBytes() and writeBytes(). These
    differ from their \e raw counterparts as follows: readBytes()
    reads a quint32 which is taken to be the length of the data to be
    read, then that number of bytes is read into the preallocated
    \c{char *}; writeBytes() writes a quint32 containing the length of the
    data, followed by the data. Note that any encoding/decoding of
    the data (apart from the length quint32) must be done by you.

    \section1 Reading and Writing Qt Collection Classes

    The Qt container classes can also be serialized to a QDataStream.
    These include QList, QLinkedList, QVector, QSet, QHash, and QMap.
    The stream operators are declared as non-members of the classes.

    \target Serializing Qt Classes
    \section1 Reading and Writing Other Qt Classes

    In addition to the overloaded stream operators documented here,
    any Qt classes that you might want to serialize to a QDataStream
    will have appropriate stream operators declared as non-member of
    the class:

    \code
    QDataStream &operator<<(QDataStream &, const QXxx &);
    QDataStream &operator>>(QDataStream &, QXxx &);
    \endcode

    For example, here are the stream operators declared as non-members
    of the QImage class:

    \code
    QDataStream & operator<< (QDataStream& stream, const QImage& image);
    QDataStream & operator>> (QDataStream& stream, QImage& image);
    \endcode

    To see if your favorite Qt class has similar stream operators
    defined, check the \b {Related Non-Members} section of the
    class's documentation page.

    \section1 Using Read Transactions

    When a data stream operates on an asynchronous device, the chunks of data
    can arrive at arbitrary points in time. The QDataStream class implements
    a transaction mechanism that provides the ability to read the data
    atomically with a series of stream operators. As an example, you can
    handle incomplete reads from a socket by using a transaction in a slot
    connected to the readyRead() signal:

    \snippet code/src_corelib_io_qdatastream.cpp 6

    If no full packet is received, this code restores the stream to the
    initial position, after which you need to wait for more data to arrive.

    Starts a new read transaction on the stream.

    Defines a restorable point within the sequence of read operations. For
    sequential devices, read data will be duplicated internally to allow
    recovery in case of incomplete reads. For random-access devices,
    this function saves the current position of the stream. Call
    commitTransaction(), rollbackTransaction(), or abortTransaction() to
    finish the current transaction.

    Once a transaction is started, subsequent calls to this function will make
    the transaction recursive. Inner transactions act as agents of the
    outermost transaction (i.e., report the status of read operations to the
    outermost transaction, which can restore the position of the stream).

    \note Restoring to the point of the nested startTransaction() call is not
    supported.

    When an error occurs during a transaction (including an inner transaction
    failing), reading from the data stream is suspended (all subsequent read
    operations return empty/zero values) and subsequent inner transactions are
    forced to fail. Starting a new outermost transaction recovers from this
    state. This behavior makes it unnecessary to error-check every read
    operation separately.
