virtual protected member function
streampos seekpos ( streampos sp, ios_base::openmode which = ios_base::in | ios_base::out );
Set internal position pointer to absolute position
Sets the absolute new position sp for the position pointers specified by parameter which.
Parameters
- sp
- New absolute position for the position pointer.
This is an object of class streampos (or traits::pos_type for other traits). streampos objects may be constructed indirectly from integral values representing a relative position from the beginning of the stream.
- which
- Determines which of the internal position pointers shall be modified: the input pointer, the output pointer, or both. It is an object of type ios_base::openmode that for this function may take any combination of the following significant constant values:
| value | position pointer affected |
|---|
| ios_base::in | input position pointer |
| ios_base::out | output position pointer |
Return Value
The new position value of the modified position pointer.
In case of error, the value returned is -1.
