Using bytes array as it was a file
Author
Assume that I have an array of bytes(100500), how can I use it as it was a file( i.e. Loading model with fbxsdk) ? Or do I have to create a temp file? Any help is welcome.
In C# you could create a memory stream from the bytes which can be use like a file stream (like any other stream really). Does anyone know if there's something similar in the C++ stream library? I'd like to know the answer to this myself actually.

What about Boost library?

If you write your code against the base interface std::iostream, you can interchange file streams, memory-backed streams, network-backed streams, or anything else that conforms to the interface. Pretty handy and basically the exact corresponding concept to doing that in C#.

Um... std::stringstream? Guys? Yeah? It lives in <sstream>.
I interpreted the question as being able to have a function like LoadFBX( "c:\model.fbx" ); but instead parse an array from RAM
