Detailed Description

template<typename _CharT, typename _Traits>

class std::basic_streambuf< _CharT, _Traits >"The actual work of input and output (interface).

Template Parameters

_CharT Type of character stream.
_Traits Traits for character type, defaults to char_traits<_CharT>.

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).

Locale access.

Returns

The current locale in effect.

If pubimbue(loc) has been called, then the most recent loc is returned. Otherwise the global locale in effect at the time of construction is returned.

Changes translations.

Parameters

__loc A new locale.

Translations done during I/O which depend on the current locale are changed by this call. The standard adds, Between invocations of this function a class derived from streambuf can safely cache results of calls to locale functions and to members of facets so obtained.

Note

Base class version does nothing.

Reimplemented in std::basic_filebuf< _CharT, _Traits >, std::basic_filebuf< _CharT, encoding_char_traits< _CharT > >, std::basic_filebuf< _CharT, std::char_traits< _CharT > >, and std::basic_filebuf< char_type, traits_type >.

template<typename _CharT , typename _Traits > streamsize std::basic_streambuf< _CharT, _Traits >::in_avail () [inline]

Looking ahead into the stream.

Returns

The number of characters available.

If a read position is available, returns the number of characters available for reading before the buffer must be refilled. Otherwise returns the derived showmanyc().

template<typename _CharT , typename _Traits > virtual int_type std::basic_streambuf< _CharT, _Traits >::overflow (int_type __c = 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 __c = 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

template<typename _CharT , typename _Traits > void std::basic_streambuf< _CharT, _Traits >::setg (char_type * __gbeg, char_type * __gnext, char_type * __gend) [inline], [protected]

Setting the three read area pointers.

Parameters

__gbeg A pointer.
__gnext A pointer.
__gend A pointer.

Postcondition

__gbeg == eback(), __gnext == gptr(), and __gend == egptr()

Referenced by std::wbuffer_convert< _Codecvt, _Elem, _Tr >::wbuffer_convert().

template<typename _CharT , typename _Traits > void std::basic_streambuf< _CharT, _Traits >::setp (char_type * __pbeg, char_type * __pend) [inline], [protected]

Setting the three write area pointers.

Parameters

__pbeg A pointer.
__pend A pointer.

Postcondition

__pbeg == pbase(), __pbeg == pptr(), and __pend == epptr()

Referenced by std::wbuffer_convert< _Codecvt, _Elem, _Tr >::wbuffer_convert().

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

Getting the next character.

Returns

The next character, or eof.

If the input read position is available, returns that character, otherwise calls and returns underflow(). Does not move the read position after fetching the character.

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

Entry point for xsgetn.

Parameters

__s A buffer area.
__n A count.

Returns xsgetn(__s,__n). The effect is to fill __s[0] through __s[__n-1] with characters from the input sequence, if possible.

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

Investigating the data available.

Returns

An estimate of the number of characters available in the input sequence, or -1.

If it returns a positive value, then successive calls to underflow() will not return traits::eof() until at least that number of characters have been supplied. If showmanyc() returns -1, then calls to underflow() or uflow() will fail. [27.5.2.4.3]/1

Note

Base class version does nothing, returns zero.

The standard adds that the intention is not only that the calls [to underflow or uflow] will not return eof() but that they will return immediately.

The standard adds that the morphemes of showmanyc are es-how-many-see, not show-manic.

Reimplemented in std::basic_filebuf< _CharT, _Traits >, std::basic_filebuf< _CharT, encoding_char_traits< _CharT > >, std::basic_filebuf< _CharT, std::char_traits< _CharT > >, std::basic_filebuf< char_type, traits_type >, and std::basic_stringbuf< _CharT, _Traits, _Alloc >.

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

Getting the next character.

Returns

The next character, or eof.

Calls sbumpc(), and if that function returns traits::eof(), so does this function. Otherwise, sgetc().

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

Pushing characters back into the input stream.

Parameters

__c The character to push back.

Returns

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).

Referenced by std::wbuffer_convert< _Codecvt, _Elem, _Tr >::overflow().

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 > 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 () [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.

Reimplemented in std::wbuffer_convert< _Codecvt, _Elem, _Tr >, __gnu_cxx::stdio_sync_filebuf< _CharT, _Traits >, std::basic_filebuf< _CharT, _Traits >, std::basic_filebuf< _CharT, encoding_char_traits< _CharT > >, std::basic_filebuf< _CharT, std::char_traits< _CharT > >, and std::basic_filebuf< char_type, traits_type >.

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.

Reimplemented in __gnu_cxx::stdio_sync_filebuf< _CharT, _Traits >.

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 https://gcc.gnu.org/onlinedocs/libstdc++/manual/streambufs.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) [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.

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

Multiple character insertion.

Parameters

__s A buffer area.
__n Maximum number of characters to write.

Returns

The number of characters written.

Writes __s[0] through __s[__n-1] to the output sequence, as if by sputc(). Stops when either n characters have been copied, or when sputc() would return traits::eof().

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