Since this probably calls the streambuf destructor, and if the streambuf is actually a fwd_streambuf, and the ~fwd_streambuf resets the ostream.rdbuf, this just may be a problem :(.

A more complete marg_ostream example is in files/col_io/test_marg_ostreambuf.zip. It shows how an ostream indentation can be changed without resorting to a wrapper class like marg_ostream in col_io/col_io.zip. It also shows how to change the indentation with use of dynamic_cast and call to marg_ostreambuf member function. It also shows how the original status of the ostream can be restored by simply deleting the result of ostream::rdbuf. Any comments?

The main idea is simple: to present any linear sequence as std::basic_streambuf<>. It sounds like what people, in particular Robert Ramey , wants. Here are the file. I had a brief look and it looks promising. However, I'm wondering if some of the complexity can be avoided. I had a hard time figuring out just how to get marg_ostreambuf in files/col_io/col_io.zip to work with buffered input. After thinking some more, I thought about just using overflow and sputc to "pipe" the output to the next streambuf. This greatly simplified the code. Would something similar work with your code. In particular, can you create an equivalent to marg_ostream from files/col_io/col_io.zip by using your, I guess, stream buffer redirectors? I'd like to see that. Maybe Reece Dunn would also since he's "interested in indentation facilities." ___ Unsubscribe & other changes: http://lists.boost.org/mailman/listinfo.cgi/boost

The marg_ostreambuf::CTOR takes a streambuf and its member functions forward to that after doing some processing via the marg_buffer_put superclass. Maybe marg_buffer_put is a "sort-of" "adaptable sequence". Anyway, it might give you some ideas. Maybe a modification to double_streambuf or bi_directional_streambuf could be used simlar to pipes in unix. Another template parameter, e.g. one named "Xform", would contain the code to do any transformations on the characters. For example, if Xform=marg_buffer_put, then this would create marg_ostreambuf. This could be the input stream to another such buffer, thus forming the next link in the pipe of streambufs.
