std::basic_stringbuf is a std::basic_streambuf whose associated character sequence is a memory-resident sequence of arbitrary characters, which can be initialized from or made available as an instance of std::basic_string.

Typical implementations of std::basic_stringbuf hold an object of type std::basic_string directly as a data member and use it as both the controlled character sequence (the array where the six pointers of std::basic_streambuf are pointing to) and as the associated character sequence (the source of characters for all input operations and the target for the output). In addition, a typical implementation holds a data member of type std::ios_base::openmode to indicate the status of the stream (input-only, output-only, or input/output).

Two specializations for common character types are also defined:

stringbuf	basic_stringbuf<char>
wstringbuf	basic_stringbuf<wchar_t>

operator= (C++11)	assigns a basic_stringbuf object (public member function)
swap (C++11)	swaps two basic_stringbuf objects (public member function)
(destructor) [virtual] (implicitly declared)	destructs a basic_stringbuf object and the string it holds (virtual public member function)
str	replaces or obtains a copy of the associated character string (public member function)
Protected member functions
underflow [virtual]	returns the next character available in the input sequence (virtual protected member function)
