[Boost-users] file descriptor imitation - boost iostreams

Hi Boosters,

I have a function with following interface:

int gvRender (GVC_t *gvc, graph_t *g, char *format, FILE *out)

but I don't want to store the output in temporary file but to compute
everything in memory... (but to store the output to same malloced
string and pass it to a display function). Boost is so powerful - so
can I solve this problem somehow using boost (C++ doesn't doesn't
provide tools to simulate file descriptors )? I know very little about
boost iostream would it be helpful?
