stringbuf::pbackfailvirtual protected member function
int pbackfail ( int c = EOF ); Put character back If the parameter c is EOF and the get pointer is not at the beginning of the character sequence, the get pointer is decreased by one.If the parameter c is value other than EOF and the get pointer is not at the beginning of the character sequence, the function compares c to the character right before the current position. If they match, the get pointer is decreased by one. If they do not match, the behavior depends on whether the stringbuf object was constructed with output access or not (with ios_base::out in its openmode parameter or not). If it was constructed with output access, c replaces the character right before the current position and the get pointer is decreased by one. In all other cases, the get pointer is not modified and the function returns EOF (or traits::eof() for other traits) to signal failure. This member function overrides the virtual member streambuf::pbackfail, which is called by other member functions of streambuf. Parameters
Return ValueThe function returns EOF (or traits::eof() for other traits) in none of the conditions above were met and therefore the get pointer was not modified.A value different from EOF (or traits::eof() for other traits) is returned if one the conditions above were met and therefor the function was successful in decreasing the get pointer. If c was specified, the value returned is c. Basic template member declaration( basic_stringbuf<charT,traits,Allocator> )
