WebAssembly port of Boost.Iostreams - High-performance C++ streams and filters library with compression, encoding, and I/O abstraction support.
Iostreams, part of collection of the Boost C++ Libraries, provides:
- Tools to make it easy to create standard C++ streams and stream buffers for accessing new Sources and Sinks.
- A framework for defining filters and attaching them to standard streams and stream buffers.
- A collection of ready-to-use Filters, Sources and Sinks.
- Utilities to save and restore stream state.
