Issue ID: 13755
Summary: std.file: fopencookie, fmemopen missing
Product: D
Version: D2
Hardware: All
OS: All
Status: NEW
Severity: enhancement
Priority: P1

fopencookie, fmemopen, open_memstream, open_wmemstream are missing in std.file
.
If std.file.File is actually supposed to be a wrapper for FILE* (is it?), it
would be nice to have these available.
fmemopen, open_memstream and open_wmemstream are Posix standard functions.
These deal with reading/writing from an array using File I/O (i.e. like C++
sstream, Python StringIO).

fopencookie is a GNU extension.
This would allow to register your own reading/writing implementation per
instance.
It would also be useful for interoperability with C libraries using FILE* in
this manner in their interface.
