## Constructors

### CountingStreamBuf

CountingStreamBuf();

Creates an unconnected CountingStreamBuf.

### CountingStreamBuf

CountingStreamBuf(
std::istream & istr
);

Creates the CountingStreamBuf and connects it to the given input stream.

### addPos

void addPos(
int pos
);

Add to the number of characters on the current line.

### chars

int chars() const;

### getCurrentLineNumber

int getCurrentLineNumber() const;

Returns the current line number (same as lines()).

### lines

int lines() const;

Returns the total number of lines.

### pos

int pos() const;

Returns the number of characters on the current line.

### reset

void reset();

Resets all counters.

### setCurrentLineNumber

void setCurrentLineNumber(
int line
);

This is mainly useful when parsing C/C++ preprocessed source code containing #line directives.

### readFromDevice

int readFromDevice();

### writeToDevice

int writeToDevice(
char c
