t</CODE>, for converting between <CODE>stream_offset</CODE> and <CODE>std::streampos</CODE>.

<P>
    The type <CODE>std::streampos</CODE> is required to be able to hold an arbitrary stream position, but it is not an intergral type. Although <CODE>std::streampos</CODE> is interconvertible with the integral type <CODE>std::streamoff</CODE>, the conversion from <CODE>std::streampos</CODE> to <CODE>std::streamoff</CODE> may not be faithful for large (64-bit) values. The integral type <CODE>boost::iostream
