  protected: void setb( char* pb, char* peb, int  nDelete = 0 );
 
  Parameter   Description
 
  <pb>        The new value for the base pointer.
 
  <peb>       The new value for the ebuf pointer.
 
  <nDelete>   Flag that controls automatic deletion. If <nDelete> is not
              0, then the reserve area will be deleted (1) when the base
              pointer is changed by another setb call or (2) when the
              streambuf destructor is called.
 
  Remarks
 
  Sets the values of the reserve area pointers. If both <pb> and <peb> are
  NULL, then there is no reserve area. If <pb> is not NULL and <peb> is
  NULL, then the reserve area has a length of 0.
