Well, as I mentioned before, you are welcome to look into the
surrounding useful examples for istringstream, etc. I can't think of a
single reason why similar reasons why istringstream, etc. is useful
would not apply to a php stream_wrapper for strings.
As for why things like istringstre

But WHY WHY WHY would one want to treat a string as a stream, when PHP has
such good string handling functions?
THATS not been explained.
(Unless, knowing C and its limited string handling capabilities, one is
looking for a familiar hammer.)

What I would like to be able to do is take a string and place it into a
'resource' so I can use functons like fscanf, fseek to process the string.
Is this possible? If so, how?

Looks like it wouldn't be terribly difficult to get something like this

I was just taking a look at:

I'm kinda surprised no one has written a wrapper for strings yet...

I know C++ and I know what you are talking about here. As I said before,
you would have pretty high overhead to do this in PHP. However, if I

I want to be able to treat a string as a stream.
For example, the C++ STL contains istringstream, which allows one to
treat strings as streams.
