A C++ header file ???

Hello !





Does anyone know where I can find the definition, I mean, the code, of %26lt;strstream%26gt;, or if at all it can be found ? It's an old C++ header file, with four deprecated classes, but I need it because this thing I am trying to build uses it and it is also old :)





I am not very experienced with this :)





Thanks !

A C++ header file ???
If you have a C++ compiler installed on your machine (like Visual Studio), then the "include" path usually has all the header files. I have Visual Studio myself, so I searched under Program Files\Microsoft Visual Studio 8\VC\Include and found the file there. Y! Answers does not let me attach a file, otherwise I could have given you the file itself.
Reply:It would be part of an older version compiler distribution. I've updated all %26lt;strstream%26gt; code to use %26lt;sstream%26gt; with very little effort. Depending how much its used in your project, maybe that would be easier than finding a now discontinued header.





The difference is that %26lt;strstream%26gt; uses a character array for storage and %26lt;sstream%26gt; uses a std:string for storage. I've always used them for output formatting so all I had to do was change the type and use c_str() to get a usable character array result.

Did you check this website out below?

It has extensive information concerning the class strstream, what it is used for (writing to an array located in memory), and other information.
Reply:Use google code search, the best way to find out about google code search is to google it :)
Reply:strstream is still available in Visual Studio 2005. The class stringstream is part of the STL and should be available to most compilers on most platforms.
Reply:Do you have Microsoft Visual Studio 2005? The latest version (2008 isnt out yet) has access to the MS library which has a lot of the most-used files for programming.





%26lt;strstream%26gt; doesn't sound familiar, if it is old, it might be built into %26lt;string%26gt;
Reply:%26lt;strstream%26gt; translates to strstrea.h


Do a search in your compiler directory for this file.
