Name
streamsize type — Stream size type
Synopsis
typedef . . . streamsize
The streamsize type is an
implementation-defined type that is used to represent the size of
various stream entities, such as number of characters to read or
write. It is a synonym for one of the signed integral types. You can
convert a streamsize to a
streamoff without loss of
information. You can also convert a streamoff back to a streamsize. If the streamoff is the result of converting a
streamsize, converting the
streamoff back to streamsize yields the original streamsize.
