Ah, I just re-read what you said and I now see that I was talking out of my rear end, sorry. sam

I think you just want to do this:

static void pass_through(std::iostream & stream) { std::istream_iterator<char> in(stream), end; std::ostream_iterator<char> out(stream); std::copy(in, end, out); }

Which will just copy everything from the in steam to the out stream until it hits an eof.

Hi,

I found some old emails about a pass through stream buffer, but I can't find it in the boost library. Am I going blind?

Basically I'm in the middle of writing a gzstream class that compresses and decompresses data to and from a iostream and I thought this pass through buffer would be exactly what I need. Anyone know where it is or have any other pointers for me?

Thanks in advance.

Cheers,

Tom Howard

No. It is in the more_io.zip file in

Have a look at my zstream library in the files section. It uses

Thanks, I'll check it out. through the C zlib library to implement compressing stream classes

ifzstream and ofzstream.

I've already got something similar (gzfstream), but now I'm writing a gzstream for a customer socket stream I've written. I'll look at it anyway. Thanks heaps. Cheers, Tom
