std::basic_stringstream::basic_stringstream

(1) empty constructor (default constructor)

Constructs a basic_stringstream object with an empty sequence as content.
Internally, its basic_iostream base constructor is passed a pointer to a basic_stringbuf object constructed with which as argument.

(2) initialization constructor

Constructs a basic_stringstream object with a copy of str as content.
Internally, its basic_iostream base constructor is passed a pointer to a basic_stringbuf object constructed with str and which as arguments.

(3) copy constructor (deleted)

Deleted (no copy constructor).

(4) move constructor

Acquires the contents of x.
First, the function move-constructs both its base basic_iostream class from x and a basic_stringbuf object from x's internal basic_streambuf object, and then associates them by calling member set_rdbuf.
x is left in an unspecified but valid state.
It is unspecified whether the sequence controlled by the internal basic_stringbuf object is the one in x before the call, or a copy of it. In any case, both objects have internal string buffers that use independent sequences after the call.

Parameters

str

A basic_string object with the same template parameters (charT, traits and Alloc), whose content is copied.

x

A basic_stringstream object of the same type (with the same class template parameters charT, traits and Alloc), whose value is moved.

which

Open mode: Access given by the internal basic_stringbuf object to its internal sequence of characters. It is an object of member type openmode for which any combination of the following member values is significant:

member constant	stands for	access
ios_base::in	input	The sequence supports input operations.
ios_base::out	output	The sequence supports output operations.

Other values of type ios_base::openmode may also be specified, although whether they have an effect on basic_stringstream objects depends on the library implementation.

member constant	stands for	access
ios_base::in	input	The sequence supports input operations.
ios_base::out	output	The sequence supports output operations.
ios_base::ate	at end	The writing position is at the end after construction, and after every time the content is reset with member str.

Other values of type ios_base::openmode (such as ios_base::app) may also be specified, although whether they have an effect on basic_stringstream objects depends on the library implementation.
