std::basic_spanbuf::seekoff(3)

NAME
std::basic_spanbuf::seekoff - std::basic_spanbuf::seekoff

Synopsis
   protected:
   pos_type seekoff( off_type off, std::ios_base::seekdir dir,
                     std::ios_base::openmode which = (since C++23)
                        std::ios_base::in | std::ios_base::out )
   override;
   Repositions the next pointer to get and/or put area, if possible, to the position
   that corresponds to exactly off characters from beginning, end, or current position
   of the get and/or put area of the buffer.
   Let n be the number of CharT elements in underlying buffer, or 0 when there is no
   underlying buffer, this function fails if
     * the next pointer to the get and/or put area to reposition is null and the
       computed newoff (see below) is not zero, which may occur if there is no
       underlying buffer, or the *this is not opened in the mode required by which, or
     * dir is std::ios_base::cur and both std::ios_base::in and std::ios_base::out are
       set in which, or
     * the computed newoff is not representable in off_type, less than zero, or greater
       than n.
   newoff is computed as below:
     * If dir is std::ios_base::beg, newoff is off.
     * If dir is std::ios_base::cur, newoff is
          * pptr() - pbase() + off if std::ios_base::out is set in which, or
          * gptr() - eback() + off if std::ios_base::in is set in which.
     * If dir is std::ios_base::end, newoff is
          * pptr() - pbase() + off if std::ios_base::out but not std::ios_base::in is
            set in the open mode of *this,
          * otherwise, off + n.
   This function repositions the next pointer to get and/or put area to pbuf + newoff
   on success if std::ios_base::in and/or std::ios_base::out is correspondingly set in
   which, where pbuf is the pointer to the beginning of the underlying buffer, or the
   null pointer value if there is no underlying buffer.

Parameters
   off - relative position to set the next pointer(s) to
           defines base position to apply the relative offset to. It can be one of the
           following constants:
   dir - Constant Explanation
           beg the beginning of a stream
           end the ending of a stream
           cur the current position of stream position indicator
           defines whether the input sequences, the output sequence, or both are
           affected. It can be one or a combination of the following constants:
   which -
           Constant Explanation
           in affect the input sequence
           out affect the output sequence

Return value
   pos_type(newoff) on success, pos_type(off_type(-1)) on failure.
