I've always done:
s.clear();//clear any bits set
s.str(std::string());
@litb gets into more detail about how to seekp to the start of the stream combined with std::ends you can keep your allocated size.

One of the possibilities is:
somestringstream.str("");
But is it most optimal? Is there any way to preserve stringstream internal buffer, so that following operator<<() calls would not require to reserve memory again?

Drew Dormann almost 15 years@milan1612: You would still need to clear the bits, and sending a C-style char* will be slower.

Andreas Spindler over 12 years..and this explains why the
s.str(std::string())
variant could be more efficient.
