However, there are some libraries (eg. the current libg++) where you can use an arbitrary 'streambuf*' when a 'FILE*' is required (at least, libg++ had a feature like this). But, of course, this is not a portable feature. -----== Posted via Deja News, The Leader in Internet Discussion ==----- http://www.dejanews.com/ Now offering spam-free web-based newsreading --- [ comp.std.c++ is moderated.
