Function winconsole::console::get_state

pub fn get_state(copy_output: bool, copy_all: bool) -> WinResult<ConsoleState>

Returns a ConsoleState object containing information about the current state of the console.

Arguments

• copy_output - Should the state contain information about the output buffer?
• copy_all - Should the state copy all of the output buffer (as opposed to reading the buffer from the start to the current cursor position)?

Examples

Retrieves the state of the console, copying the output up to the location of the console cursor.

let state = console::get_state(true, false).unwrap();
println!("{}", state.output.len());

Errors

• FromUtf8Error: Returned if an error occurs while converting to a string.
• InvalidHandleError: Returned if an invalid handle to the console output is retrieved or used.
• IoError: Returned if an OS error occurs.
