pos_type pubseekpos( pos_type pos,                      std::ios_base::openmode which = std::ios_base::in | std::ios_base::out );	(1)
protected: virtual pos_type seekpos( pos_type pos,                           std::ios_base::openmode which = std::ios_base::in | std::ios_base::out );	(2)

Sets the position indicator of the input and/or output sequence to an absolute position.

1) Calls seekpos(pos, which) of the most derived class.

2) The base class version of this function has no effect. The derived classes may override this function to allow absolute positioning of the position indicator.

Parameters

pos	-	absolute position to set the position indicator to
which	-	defines which of the input and/or output sequences to affect. It can be one or a combination of the following constants: Constant Explanation in affect the input sequence out affect the output sequence

Return value

1) The return value of seekpos(pos, which).

2) The resulting absolute position as defined by the position indicator. The base class version returns pos_type(off_type(-1)).

Defect reports

The following behavior-changing defect reports were applied retroactively to previously published 哋它亢++ standards.

DR	Applied to	Behavior as published	Correct behavior
LWG 55	哋它亢++98	the base class version of seekpos returned an undefined invalid stream position	returns pos_type(off_type(-1))
