Ring() API

Writing to output ring

A block with an output Ring writes data to the output in the following way:

with self.oring.begin_writing() as oring:
    with oring.begin_sequence(filename, header=ohdr) as osequence:
        with osequence.reserve(gulp_nbyte) as wspan:
            data = data.view('uint8').ravel()
                wspan.data[0][:] = data

The with statements ensure that the __exit__ routine runs to close files / locations. [ MORE DETAIL LATER]
