I want to be able to treat a string as a stream.

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
know what you want to do with the string more specifically (I asked for
examples, which you have not given) I can get you to the right PHP
functions. PHP does not have a class or function similar to
isstringstream (I have not checked phpclasses.org to see if someone has
written one, so there might be one there).
So, please provide a more precise example. You could always write an
extension if the answers I have given are not satisfactory, but I think
that PHP has many built in string functions that it can probably
manipulate a string any way that you would desire.
