int_type underflow() override;

Returns: If the input sequence has a read position available, returnstraits​::​to_int_type(*gptr()).

Otherwise, returnstraits​::​eof().

Any character in the underlying buffer which has been initialized is considered to be part of the input sequence.

int_type pbackfail(int_type c = traits::eof()) override;

Effects: Puts back the character designated by c to the input sequence, if possible, in one of three ways:

Returns: As specified above, ortraits​::​eof()to indicate failure.

Remarks: If the function can succeed in more than one of these ways, it is unspecified which way is chosen.

int_type overflow(int_type c = traits::eof()) override;

Effects: Appends the character designated by c to the output sequence, if possible, in one of two ways:

Returns: As specified above, ortraits​::​eof()to indicate failure.

Remarks: The function can alter the number of write positions available as a result of any call.

The function can make a write position available only ifios_base​::​out is set in mode.

To make a write position available, the function reallocates (or initially allocates) an array object with a sufficient number of elements to hold the current array object (if any), plus at least one additional write position.

If ios_base​::​in is set in mode, the function alters the read end pointeregptr()to point just past the new write position.

pos_type seekoff(off_type off, ios_base::seekdir way, ios_base::openmode which= ios_base::in | ios_base::out) override;

Effects: Alters the stream position within one of the controlled sequences, if possible, as indicated in Table 142.

Table 142 — seekoff positioning [tab:stringbuf.seekoff.pos]

ios_base​::​in is set in which positions the input sequence
ios_base​::​out is set in which positions the output sequence
both ios_base​::​in and ios_base​::​out are set in which and eitherway == ios_base​::​beg orway == ios_base​::​end positions both the input and the output sequences
the positioning operation fails.

For a sequence to be positioned, the function determines newoff as indicated in Table 143.

If the sequence's next pointer (eithergptr()orpptr()) is a null pointer and newoff is nonzero, the positioning operation fails.

Table 143 — newoff values [tab:stringbuf.seekoff.newoff]

the next pointer minus the beginning pointer (xnext - xbeg).
the high mark pointer minus the beginning pointer (high_mark - xbeg).

If(newoff + off) < 0, or if newoff + off refers to an uninitialized character ([stringbuf.members]), the positioning operation fails.

Otherwise, the function assignsxbeg + newoff + offto the next pointer xnext.

Returns: pos_type(newoff), constructed from the resultant offset newoff(of typeoff_type), that stores the resultant stream position, if possible.

If the positioning operation fails, or if the constructed object cannot represent the resultant stream position, the return value ispos_type(off_type(-1)).

pos_type seekpos(pos_type sp, ios_base::openmode which= ios_base::in | ios_base::out) override;

Effects: Equivalent to seekoff(off_type(sp), ios_base​::​beg, which).

Returns: spto indicate success, orpos_type(off_type(-1))to indicate failure.

basic_streambuf<charT, traits>* setbuf(charT* s, streamsize n) override;

Effects: implementation-defined, except thatsetbuf(0, 0)has no effect.
