std::basic_stringstream(3)    C++ Standard Libary   std::basic_stringstream(3)

NAME
       std::basic_stringstream - std::basic_stringstream

Synopsis
	  Defined in header <sstream>
	  template<

	      class CharT,
	      class Traits = std::char_traits<CharT>,
	      class Allocator =	std::allocator<CharT>
	  > class basic_stringstream

	      :	public basic_iostream<CharT, Traits>;

	  The class template std::basic_stringstream implements	input and out-
       put operations on
	  string  based	streams. It effectively	stores an instance of std::ba-
       sic_string and
	  performs the input and output	operations on it.

	  At the low level, the	class essentially wraps	a  raw	string	device
       implementation of
	  std::basic_stringbuf	into  a	 higher-level  interface  of  std::ba-
       sic_iostream. The
	  complete interface to	unique std::basic_stringbuf  members  is  pro-
       vided.
