<!-- =========== START OF CLASS DESCRIPTION =========== -->
<h2 class="class">Type ChannelFile</h2>

<pre class="base-tree">
  <a href="__builtin__.object-class.html"><code>object</code></a> --+    
           |    
<a href="paramiko.BufferedFile-class.html"><code>BufferedFile</code></a> --+

<dl><dt><b>Known Subclasses:</b></dt>
<dd>
    <a href="../private/paramiko.channel.ChannelStderrFile-class.html"><code>ChannelStderrFile</code></a></dd></dl>

<hr/>

A file-like wrapper around <a href="paramiko.Channel-class.html" 
class="link"><code>Channel</code></a>. A ChannelFile is created by 
calling <a href="paramiko.Channel-class.html#makefile" 
class="link"><code>Channel.makefile</code></a>.
<hr/>

<p><b>Bug:</b> To correctly emulate the file object created from a socket's 
<code>makefile</code> method, a <a href="paramiko.Channel-class.html" 
class="link"><code>Channel</code></a> and its <code>ChannelFile</code> 
should be able to be closed or garbage-collected independently. 
Currently, closing the <code>ChannelFile</code> does nothing but flush 
the buffer.
