(since C++23)

The class template std::basic_spanstream implements input and output operations on streams based on fixed buffers.

At the low level, the class essentially wraps a raw device implementation of std::basic_spanbuf into a higher-level interface of std::basic_iostream. The complete interface to unique std::basic_spanbuf members is provided.
