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
.
