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

NAME
     std::strstream - std::strstream

Synopsis
	Defined in header <strstream>
	class strstream : public std::iostream	(deprecated in C++98)
						(removed in C++26)

	The  class  strstream  implements  input and output operations on array-
     backed streams.
	It  essentially  wraps	 a   raw   array   I/O	 device   implementation
     (std::strstreambuf) into
	the higher-level interface of std::basic_iostream.

	The  typical implementation of strstream holds only one non-derived data
     member: an
	object of type std::strstreambuf.

Notes
	After any call to str(), a call to freeze(false) is  required  to  allow
     the destructor
	to deallocate the buffer as necessary.

	Before	any call to str() that uses the result as a C-string, the buffer
     must be
	null-terminated, typically with std::ends.

	strstream has been deprecated  since  C++98  and  removed  since  C++26.
     std::stringstream
	, std::spanstream
	(since	C++23), and boost::iostreams::array are the recommended replace-
     ments.

Member functions
	constructor   constructs a strstream object, optionally  allocating  the
     buffer
		      (public member function)
	destructor     destructs a strstream object, optionally deallocating the
     buffer
	[virtual]     (virtual public member function)
	rdbuf	      obtains a pointer to the associated strstreambuf
		      (public member function)
