Feature request: open multiple streams at once #14

Closed surban closed 2 years ago

surban commented 2 years ago

Currently it is not possible to have multiple streams open at once, since Stream owns the mutable reference to CompoundFile. This is a bit sad, since it limits the ability of rust-cfb to be used as a virtual filesystem with multiple open files. I understand that implementing this might be a significant challenge, but maybe it would be possible to have multiple read-only streams open at once as a first step?
