 *
 * @param buf The data that will be used to back the FILE* methods. Must be at least

 * @param size The size of the @c buf data.
 * @param mode The permitted stream operation modes.
 * @return A pointer that can be used in the fread/fwrite/fseek/fclose family of methods.
 *         If a failure occurred NULL will be returned.
