Detailed Description

  template<typename _CharT, typename _Traits> class std::basic_streambuf< _CharT, _Traits >
The actual work of input and output (interface). This is a base class. Derived stream buffers each control a pair of character sequences: one for input, and one for output.

Section [27.5.1] of the standard describes the requirements and behavior of stream buffer classes. That section (three paragraphs) is reproduced here, for simplicity and accuracy.

1.  Stream buffers can impose various constraints on the sequences they control. Some constraints are:

•   The controlled input sequence can be not readable.

•   The controlled output sequence can be not writable.

•   The controlled sequences can be associated with the contents of other representations for character sequences, such as external files.

•   The controlled sequences can support operations directly to or from associated sequences.

•   The controlled sequences can impose limitations on how the program can read characters from a sequence, write characters to a sequence, put characters back into an input sequence, or alter the stream position.

2.  Each sequence is characterized by three pointers which, if non-null, all point into the same charT array object. The array object represents, at any moment, a (sub)sequence of characters from the sequence. Operations performed on a sequence alter the values stored in these pointers, perform reads and writes directly to or from associated sequences, and alter 'the stream position' and conversion state as needed to maintain this subsequence relationship. The three pointers are:

•   the beginning pointer, or lowest element address in the array (called xbeg here);

•   the next pointer, or next element address that is a current candidate for reading or writing (called xnext here);

•   the end pointer, or first element address beyond the end of the array (called xend here).

3.  The following semantic constraints shall always apply for any set of three pointers for a sequence, using the pointer names given immediately above:

•   If xnext is not a null pointer, then xbeg and xend shall also be non-null pointers into the same charT array, as described above; otherwise, xbeg and xend shall also be null.

•   If xnext is not a null pointer and xnext < xend for an output sequence, then a write position is available. In this case, *xnext shall be assignable as the next element to write (to put, or to store a character value, into the sequence).

•   If xnext is not a null pointer and xbeg < xnext for an input sequence, then a putback position is available. In this case, xnext[-1] shall have a defined value and is the next (preceding) element to store a character that is put back into the input sequence.

•   If xnext is not a null pointer and xnext< xend for an input sequence, then a read position is available. In this case, *xnext shall have a defined value and is the next element to read (to get, or to obtain a character value, from the sequence).

  template<typename _CharT, typename _Traits> virtual int_type std::basic_streambuf< _CharT, _Traits >::overflow (int_type = traits_type::eof()) [inline, protected, virtual]

Consumes data from the buffer; writes to the controlled sequence.

Parameters:
    c An additional character to consume.

Returns:
    eof() to indicate failure, something else (usually c, or not_eof())

Informally, this function is called when the output buffer is full (or does not exist, as buffering need not actually be done). If a buffer exists, it is 'consumed', with 'some effect' on the controlled sequence. (Typically, the buffer is written out to the sequence verbatim.) In either case, the character c is also written out, if c is not eof().

For a formal definition of this function, see a good text such as Langer & Kreft, or [27.5.2.4.5]/3-7.

A functioning output streambuf can be created by overriding only this function (no buffer area will be used).

Note:
    Base class version does nothing, returns eof().

  template<typename _CharT, typename _Traits> virtual int_type std::basic_streambuf< _CharT, _Traits >::pbackfail (int_type = traits_type::eof()) [inline, protected, virtual]

Tries to back up the input sequence.

Parameters:
    c The character to be inserted back into the sequence.

Returns:
    eof() on failure, 'some other value' on success

Postcondition:
    The constraints of gptr(), eback(), and pptr() are the same as for underflow().

Note:
    Base class version does nothing, returns eof().

    The previous character, if possible.

Similar to sungetc(), but c is pushed onto the stream instead of 'the previous character'. If successful, the next character fetched from the input stream will be c.

  template<typename _CharT, typename _Traits> int_type std::basic_streambuf< _CharT, _Traits >::sputc (char_type __c) [inline]

Entry point for all single-character output functions.

Parameters:
    c A character to output.

Returns:
    c, if possible.

One of two public output functions.

If a write position is available for the output sequence (i.e., the buffer is not full), stores c in that position, increments the position, and returns traits::to_int_type(c). If a write position is not available, returns overflow(c).

  template<typename _CharT, typename _Traits> streamsize std::basic_streambuf< _CharT, _Traits >::sputn (const char_type * __s, streamsize __n) [inline]

Entry point for all single-character output functions.

Parameters:
    s A buffer read area.
    n A count.

One of two public output functions.

Returns xsputn(s,n). The effect is to write s[0] through s[n-1] to the output sequence, if possible.

  template<typename _CharT, typename _Traits> void std::basic_streambuf< _CharT, _Traits >::stossc () [inline]

Tosses a character.

Advances the read pointer, ignoring the character that would have been read.

  template<typename _CharT, typename _Traits> int_type std::basic_streambuf< _CharT, _Traits >::sungetc () [inline]

Moving backwards in the input stream.

Returns:
    The previous character, if possible.

If a putback position is available, this function decrements the input pointer and returns that character. Otherwise, calls and returns pbackfail(). The effect is to 'unget' the last character 'gotten'.

  template<typename _CharT, typename _Traits> virtual int std::basic_streambuf< _CharT, _Traits >::sync (void) [inline, protected, virtual]

Synchronizes the buffer arrays with the controlled sequences.

Returns:
    -1 on failure.

Each derived class provides its own appropriate behavior, including the definition of 'failure'.

Note:
    Base class version does nothing, returns zero.

  template<typename _CharT, typename _Traits> virtual int_type std::basic_streambuf< _CharT, _Traits >::uflow () [inline, protected, virtual]

Fetches more data from the controlled sequence.

Returns:
    The first character from the pending sequence.

Informally, this function does the same thing as underflow(), and in fact is required to call that function. It also returns the new character, like underflow() does. However, this function also moves the read position forward by one.

  template<typename _CharT, typename _Traits> virtual int_type std::basic_streambuf< _CharT, _Traits >::underflow () [inline, protected, virtual]

Fetches more data from the controlled sequence.

Returns:
    The first character from the pending sequence.

Informally, this function is called when the input buffer is exhausted (or does not exist, as buffering need not actually be done). If a buffer exists, it is 'refilled'. In either case, the next available character is returned, or traits::eof() to indicate a null pending sequence.

For a formal definition of the pending sequence, see a good text such as Langer & Kreft, or [27.5.2.4.3]/7-14.

A functioning input streambuf can be created by overriding only this function (no buffer area will be used). For an example, see http://gcc.gnu.org/onlinedocs/libstdc++/manual/bk01pt11ch25.html

Note:
    Base class version does nothing, returns eof().

  template<typename _CharT , typename _Traits > streamsize std::basic_streambuf< _CharT, _Traits >::xsgetn (char_type * __s, streamsize __n) [inline, protected, virtual]

Multiple character extraction.

Parameters:
    s A buffer area.
    n Maximum number of characters to assign.

Returns:
    The number of characters assigned.

Fills s[0] through s[n-1] with characters from the input sequence, as if by sbumpc(). Stops when either n characters have been copied, or when traits::eof() would be copied.

It is expected that derived classes provide a more efficient implementation by overriding this definition.
