Description

A streambuf class that controls the transmission of elements to and from a basic_xbufferstream. The elements are transmitted from a to a fixed size buffer

basic_bufferbuf public construct/copy/destruct

  1. explicit basic_bufferbuf(std::ios_base::openmode mode = std::ios_base::in|std::ios_base::out);

    Constructor. Does not throw.

  2. explicit basic_bufferbuf(CharT * buffer, std::size_t length, 
                             std::ios_base::openmode mode = std::ios_base::in|std::ios_base::out);

    Constructor. Assigns formatting buffer. Does not throw.

  3. ~basic_bufferbuf();

basic_bufferbuf public member functions

  1. std::pair< CharT *, std::size_t > buffer() const;

    Returns the pointer and size of the internal buffer. Does not throw.

  2. void buffer(CharT * buffer, std::size_t length);

    Sets the underlying buffer to a new value Does not throw.
