# Trait io_lifetimes::FromFilelike

    pub trait FromFilelike: From<OwnedFd> {
        fn from_filelike(owned: OwnedFilelike) -> Self;
        fn from_into_filelike<Owned: IntoFilelike>(owned: Owned) -> Self;
    }

Expand description

A portable trait to express the ability to construct an object from a filelike object.

This is a portability abstraction over Unix-like `From<OwnedFd>` and Windows’ `From<OwnedHandle>`. It also provides the `from_into_filelike` convenience function providing simplified from+into conversions.

## Required Methods

source

#### fn from_filelike(owned: OwnedFilelike) -> Self

Constructs a new instance of `Self` from the given filelike object.

##### Example

    use std::fs::File;
    use io_lifetimes::{FromFilelike, IntoFilelike, OwnedFilelike};

    let f = File::open("foo.txt")?;
    let owned_filelike: OwnedFilelike = f.into_filelike();
    let f = File::from_filelike(owned_filelike);

source

#### fn from_into_filelike<Owned: IntoFilelike>(owned: Owned) -> Self

Constructs a new instance of `Self` from the given filelike object converted from `into_owned`.

##### Example

    use std::fs::File;
    use io_lifetimes::{FromFilelike, IntoFilelike};

    let f = File::open("foo.txt")?;
    let f = File::from_into_filelike(f);
