:mrdocs:

Set the position indicator to the relative specified `offset` from the base position indicated by the specified `way` and return the resulting absolute position on success or pos_type(‐1) on failure. Optionally specify `which` area of the stream buffer. The seek operation will fail if `which` does not include the flag `bsl::ios_base::in` or if the resulting absolute position is less than zero or greater than the value returned by `length`.
