# 1.0.0[−][src]Struct std::process::ChildStdout

    pub struct ChildStdout { /* fields omitted */ }

A handle to a child process's standard output (stdout).

This struct is used in the `stdout` field on `Child`.

When an instance of `ChildStdout` is dropped, the `ChildStdout`'s underlying file handle will be closed.

`ChildStdout` will be converted to `Stdio` using `Stdio::from` under the hood.

    use std::process::{Command, Stdio};

    let hello = Command::new("echo")
        .arg("Hello, world!")
        .stdout(Stdio::piped())
        .spawn()
        .expect("failed echo command");

    let reverse = Command::new("rev")
        .stdin(hello.stdout.unwrap())  // Converted into a Stdio here
        .output()
        .expect("failed reverse command");

## Search Tricks

Prefix searches with a type followed by a colon (e.g. `fn:`) to restrict the search to a given type.

Accepted types are: `fn`, `mod`, `struct`, `enum`, `trait`, `type`, `macro`, and `const`.

Search functions by type signature (e.g. `vec -> usize` or `* -> vec`)

Search multiple things at once by splitting your query with comma (e.g. `str,u8` or `String,struct:Vec,test`)
