IMP::TextOutput Class Reference

---

Detailed Description

A TextOutput can be implicitly constructed from a C++ stream, a Python filelike object or a path to a file. As a result, those can be passed directly to functions which take a TextOutput as an argument.

Files are created lazily, so TextOutput can be passed as arguments to functions that might not produce output.

    IMP::atom::write_pdb(particles, "path/to/file.pdb");
    IMP::atom::write_pdb(particles, my_fstream);
