Member Function Documentation

template<typename _CharT, typename _Traits>
bool std::basic_ios< _CharT, _Traits >::bad ( ) const
inline

Fast error checking.

Returns
True if the badbit is set.

Note that other iostate flags may also be set.

Definition at line 201 of file basic_ios.h.

template<typename _CharT , typename _Traits >
void std::basic_ios< _CharT, _Traits >::clear ( iostate  __state = goodbit)

[Re]sets the error state.

Parameters
stateThe new state flag(s) to set.

See std::ios_base::iostate for the possible bit values. Most users will not need to pass an argument.

Definition at line 40 of file basic_ios.tcc.

template<typename _CharT , typename _Traits >
basic_ios< _CharT, _Traits > & std::basic_ios< _CharT, _Traits >::copyfmt ( const basic_ios< _CharT, _Traits > &  __rhs)

Copies fields of __rhs into this.

Parameters
__rhsThe source values for the copies.
Returns
Reference to this object.

All fields of __rhs are copied into this object except that rdbuf() and rdstate() remain unchanged. All values in the pword and iword arrays are copied. Before copying, each callback is invoked with erase_event. After copying, each (new) callback is invoked with copyfmt_event. The final step is to copy exceptions().

template<typename _CharT, typename _Traits>
bool std::basic_ios< _CharT, _Traits >::eof ( ) const
inline

Fast error checking.

Definition at line 180 of file basic_ios.h.

template<typename _CharT, typename _Traits>
iostate std::basic_ios< _CharT, _Traits >::exceptions ( ) const
inline

Throwing exceptions on errors.

Returns
The current exceptions mask.

This changes nothing in the stream. See the one-argument version of exceptions(iostate) for the meaning of the return value.

Definition at line 212 of file basic_ios.h.

Referenced by std::basic_ios< _CharT, _Traits >::copyfmt().

template<typename _CharT, typename _Traits>
void std::basic_ios< _CharT, _Traits >::exceptions ( iostate  __except)
inline

Throwing exceptions on errors.

Parameters
exceptThe new exceptions mask.

By default, error flags are set silently. You can set an exceptions mask for each stream; if a bit in the mask becomes set in the error flags, then an exception of type std::ios_base::failure is thrown.

If the error flag is already set when the exceptions mask is added, the exception is immediately thrown. Try running the following under GCC 3.1 or later:

#include <iostream>
#include <fstream>
#include <exception>
int main()
{
std::ifstream f ("/etc/motd");
std::cerr << "Setting badbit\n";
std::cerr << "Setting exception mask\n";
}

Definition at line 247 of file basic_ios.h.

template<typename _CharT, typename _Traits>
bool std::basic_ios< _CharT, _Traits >::fail ( ) const
inline

Fast error checking.

Returns
True if either the badbit or the failbit is set.

Checking the badbit in fail() is historical practice. Note that other iostate flags may also be set.

Definition at line 191 of file basic_ios.h.

template<typename _CharT, typename _Traits>
char_type std::basic_ios< _CharT, _Traits >::fill ( ) const
inline

Retrieves the "empty" character.

Returns
The current fill character.

It defaults to a space (' ') in the current locale.

Definition at line 360 of file basic_ios.h.

Referenced by std::basic_ios< _CharT, _Traits >::copyfmt().

template<typename _CharT, typename _Traits>
char_type std::basic_ios< _CharT, _Traits >::fill ( char_type  __ch)
inline

Sets a new "empty" character.

Parameters
chThe new character.
Returns
The previous fill character.

The fill character is used to fill out space when P+ characters have been requested (e.g., via setw), Q characters are actually used, and Q<P. It defaults to a space (' ') in the current locale.

Definition at line 380 of file basic_ios.h.

fmtflags std::ios_base::flags ( ) const

Definition at line 566 of file ios_base.h.

locale std::ios_base::getloc ( ) const
inlineinherited

Locale access.

Returns
A copy of the current locale.

If imbue(loc) has previously been called, then this function returns loc. Otherwise, it returns a copy of std::locale(), the global C++ locale.

inline

Fast error checking.

Returns
True if no error flags are set.

A wrapper around rdstate.

Definition at line 170 of file basic_ios.h.

template<typename _CharT , typename _Traits >
locale std::basic_ios< _CharT, _Traits >::imbue ( const locale __loc)

Moves to a new locale.

Parameters
locThe new locale.
Returns
The previous locale.

Calls ios_base::imbue(loc), and if a stream buffer is associated with this stream, calls that buffer's pubimbue(loc).

Additional l10n notes are at http://gcc.gnu.org/onlinedocs/libstdc++/manual/localization.html

Reimplemented from std::ios_base.

long& std::ios_base::iword ( int  __ix)
inlineinherited

Access to integer array.

Parameters
__ixIndex into the array.
Returns
A reference to an integer associated with the index.

The iword function provides access to an array of integers that can be used for any purpose. The array grows as required to hold the supplied index. All integers in the array are initialized to 0.

The implementation reserves several indices. You should use xalloc to obtain an index that is safe to use. Also note that since the array can grow dynamically, it is not safe to hold onto the reference.

Definition at line 745 of file ios_base.h.

template<typename _CharT, typename _Traits>
char std::basic_ios< _CharT, _Traits >::narrow ( char_type  __c,
char  __dfault 
) const
inline

Squeezes characters.

Parameters
cThe character to narrow.
dfaultThe character to narrow.
Returns
The narrowed character.

Maps a character of char_type to a character of char, if possible.

Returns the result of

std::use_facet<ctype<char_type> >(getloc()).narrow(c,dfault)

Referenced by std::basic_ios< _CharT, _Traits >::copyfmt(), and std::operator<<().

streamsize std::ios_base::precision ( streamsize  __prec)

Changing flags.

Parameters
precThe new precision value.
Returns
The previous value of precision().

Definition at line 634 of file ios_base.h.

void*& std::ios_base::pword ( int  __ix)
inlineinherited

Access to void pointer array.

Parameters
__ixIndex into the array.
Returns
A reference to a void* associated with the index.

The pword function provides access to an array of pointers that can be used for any purpose. The array grows as required to hold the supplied index. All pointers in the array are initialized to 0.

The implementation reserves several indices. You should use xalloc to obtain an index that is safe to use. Also note that since the array can grow dynamically, it is not safe to hold onto the reference.

Definition at line 766 of file ios_base.h.

template<typename _CharT, typename _Traits>
basic_streambuf<_CharT, _Traits>* std::basic_ios< _CharT, _Traits >::rdbuf ( ) const
inline
template<typename _CharT, typename _Traits>
basic_streambuf< _CharT, _Traits > * std::basic_ios< _CharT, _Traits >::rdbuf ( basic_streambuf< _CharT, _Traits > *  __sb)

Changing the underlying buffer.

Parameters
sbThe new stream buffer.
Returns
The previous stream buffer.

Associates a new buffer with the current stream, and clears the error state.

Due to historical accidents which the LWG refuses to correct, the I/O library suffers from a design error: this function is hidden in derived classes by overrides of the zero-argument rdbuf(), which is non-virtual for hysterical raisins. As a result, you must use explicit qualifications to access this function via any derived class. For example:

std::fstream foo; // or some other derived type
std::streambuf* p = .....;
foo.ios::rdbuf(p); // ios == basic_ios<char>

Definition at line 52 of file basic_ios.tcc.

template<typename _CharT, typename _Traits>
iostate std::basic_ios< _CharT, _Traits >::rdstate ( ) const
inline

Returns the error state of the stream buffer.

Returns
A bit pattern (well, isn't everything?)

See std::ios_base::iostate for the possible bit values. Most users will call one of the interpreting wrappers, e.g., good().

Definition at line 127 of file basic_ios.h.

void std::ios_base::register_callback ( event_callback  __fn,
int  __index 
)
inherited

Add the callback __fn with parameter __index.

Parameters
__fnThe function to add.
__indexThe integer to pass to the function when invoked.

Registers a function as an event callback with an integer parameter to be passed to the function when invoked. Multiple copies of the function are allowed. If there are multiple callbacks, they are invoked in the order they were registered.

fmtflags std::ios_base::setf ( fmtflags  __fmtfl)
inlineinherited

Setting new format flags.

Parameters
fmtflAdditional flags to set.
Returns
The previous format control flags.

This function sets additional flags in format control. Flags that were previously set remain set.

fmtflags std::ios_base::setf ( fmtflags  __fmtfl,
fmtflags  __mask 
)
inlineinherited

Setting new format flags.

Parameters
fmtflAdditional flags to set.
maskThe flags mask for fmtfl.

static bool std::ios_base::sync_with_stdio ( bool  __sync = true)
staticinherited

Interaction with the standard C I/O objects.

Parameters
syncWhether to synchronize or not.
Returns
True if the standard streams were previously synchronized.

The synchronization referred to is only that between the standard C facilities (e.g., stdout) and the standard C++ objects (e.g., cout). User-declared streams are unaffected. See http://gcc.gnu.org/onlinedocs/libstdc++/manual/bk01pt11ch28s02.html

template<typename _CharT, typename _Traits>
basic_ostream<_CharT, _Traits>* std::basic_ios< _CharT, _Traits >::tie ( ) const
inline

Fetches the current tied stream.

Returns
A pointer to the tied stream, or NULL if the stream is not tied.

A stream may be tied (or synchronized) to a second output stream. When this stream performs any I/O, the tied stream is first flushed. For example, std::cin is tied to std::cout.

Parameters
tiestrThe output stream.
Returns
The previously tied output stream, or NULL if the stream was not tied.

This sets up a new tie; see tie() for more.

Parameters
wideThe new width value.
Returns
The previous value of width().

Definition at line 657 of file ios_base.h.

static int std::ios_base::xalloc ( ) throw ()
staticinherited

Access to unique indices.

Returns
An integer different from all previous calls.

This function returns a unique integer every time it is called. It can be used for any purpose, but is primarily intended to be a unique index for the iword and pword functions. The expectation is that an application calls xalloc in order to obtain an index in the iword and pword arrays that can be used without fear of conflict.

The implementation maintains a static variable that is incremented and returned on each invocation. xalloc is guaranteed to return an index that is safe to use in the iword and pword arrays.
