protected: std::streamsize showmanyc();

Estimates the number of characters available for input in the associated character sequence. underflow() is guaranteed not to return traits::eof() until at least that many characters are extracted.

Parameters

(none)

Return value

The number of characters available in the sequence, or -1 if no characters are available. In that case, underflow() and uflow() will fail.

The base class version returns ​0​.

in_avail	obtains the number of characters immediately available in the get area (public member function)
showmanyc [virtual]	optionally provides the number of characters available for input from the file (virtual protected member function of std::basic_filebuf)
