std::basic_spanbuf<CharT,Traits>::seekpos - cppreference.com (original) (raw)

Repositions the next pointer to the get and/or put area, if possible, to the position indicated by sp.

Equivalent to return seekoff(off_type(sp), std::ios_base::beg, which);.

[edit] Parameters

sp - stream position, such as one obtained by seekoff() or seekpos()
which - defines whether the input sequences, the output sequence, or both are affected. It can be one or a combination of the following constants: Constant Explanation in affect the input sequence out affect the output sequence

[edit] Return value

sp on success or pos_type(off_type(-1)) on failure.

[edit] Notes

seekpos() is called by std::basic_streambuf::pubseekpos(), which is called by the single-argument versions of std::basic_istream::seekg() and std::basic_ostream::seekp().
