Get current character and increase get pointer.
  The function returns the character at current get position and then increases the get pointer by one, unless the get position is at the end of the input sequence, in which case EOF is returned.

Return Value.
  The character available at the get position before the call.
  If the get pointer was at the end of the input sequence the function returns EOF.

Example.

// show file content - sbumpc () example
#include <iostream>
#include <fstream>
using namespace std;

int main () {

  char ch;
  streambuf * pbuf;
  ifstream istr ("test.txt");

  pbuf = istr.rdbuf();

  while (pbuf->sgetc()!=EOF)
  {
     ch = pbuf->sbumpc();
     cout << ch;
  }

  istr.close();

  return 0;
