__istream_type &	operator>> (__istream_type &(*__pf)(__istream_type &))

Arithmetic Extractors
All the operator>> functions (aka formatted input functions) have some common behavior. Each starts by constructing a temporary object of type std::basic_istream::sentry with the second argument (noskipws) set to false. This has several effects, concluding with the setting of a status flag; see the sentry documentation for more. If the sentry status is good, the function tries to extract whatever data is appropriate for the type of the argument. If an exception is thrown during extraction, ios_base::badbit will be turned on in the stream's error state without causing an ios_base::failure to be thrown. The original exception will then be rethrown.

Unformatted Input Functions
All the unformatted input functions have some common behavior. Each starts by constructing a temporary object of type std::basic_istream::sentry with the second argument (noskipws) set to true. This has several effects, concluding with the setting of a status flag; see the sentry documentation for more. If the sentry status is good, the function tries to extract whatever data is appropriate for the type of the argument. The number of characters extracted is stored for later retrieval by gcount(). If an exception is thrown during extraction, ios_base::badbit will be turned on in the stream's error state without causing an ios_base::failure to be thrown. The original exception will then be rethrown.

Detailed Description

template<typename _CharT, typename _Traits>
class std::basic_istream< _CharT, _Traits >

Controlling input.

This is the base class for all input streams. It provides text formatting of all builtin types, and communicates with any class derived from basic_streambuf to do the actual input.

Constructor & Destructor Documentation

template<typename _CharT, typename _Traits> std::basic_istream< _CharT, _Traits >::basic_istream (  __streambuf_type *    __sb )  [inline, explicit]

Base constructor. This ctor is almost never called by the user directly, rather from derived classes' initialization lists, which pass a pointer to their own stream buffer. Definition at line 96 of file istream.

template<typename _CharT, typename _Traits> virtual std::basic_istream< _CharT, _Traits >::~basic_istream (    )  [inline, virtual]

Base destructor. This does very little apart from providing a virtual base dtor. Definition at line 108 of file istream.

template<typename _CharT, typename _Traits> basic_istream< _CharT, _Traits > & std::basic_istream< _CharT, _Traits >::operator>> (  __streambuf_type *    __sb )

Extracting into another streambuf. Parameters: sb  A pointer to a streambuf This function behaves like one of the basic arithmetic extractors, in that it also constructs a sentry onject and has the same error handling behavior.

template<typename _CharT, typename _Traits> streamsize std::basic_istream< _CharT, _Traits >::readsome (  char_type *    __s, streamsize    __n )

Extraction until the buffer is exhausted, but no more. Parameters: s  A character array. n  Maximum number of characters to store. Returns: The number of characters extracted. Extracts characters and stores them into s depending on the number of characters remaining in the streambuf's buffer, rdbuf()->in_avail(), called A here: if A == -1, sets eofbit and extracts no characters if A == 0, extracts no characters if A > 0, extracts min(A,n) The goal is to empty the current buffer, and to not request any more from the external input sequence controlled by the streambuf.

template<typename _CharT, typename _Traits> basic_istream< _CharT, _Traits > & std::basic_istream< _CharT, _Traits >::seekg (  off_type   , ios_base::seekdir    )

Changing the current read position. Parameters: off  A file offset object. dir  The direction in which to seek. Returns: *this If fail() is not true, calls rdbuf()->pubseekoff(off,dir). If that function fails, sets failbit. Note: This function does not count the number of characters extracted, if any, and therefore does not affect the next call to gcount().

template<typename _CharT, typename _Traits> basic_istream< _CharT, _Traits > & std::basic_istream< _CharT, _Traits >::seekg (  pos_type    )

Changing the current read position. Parameters: pos  A file position object. Returns: *this If fail() is not true, calls rdbuf()->pubseekpos(pos). If that function fails, sets failbit. Note: This function does not count the number of characters extracted, if any, and therefore does not affect the next call to gcount(). Definition at line 948 of file istream.tcc.

template<typename _CharT, typename _Traits> int std::basic_istream< _CharT, _Traits >::sync (    )

Synchronizing the stream buffer. Returns: 0 on success, -1 on failure If rdbuf() is a null pointer, returns -1. Otherwise, calls rdbuf()->pubsync(), and if that returns -1, sets badbit and returns -1. Otherwise, returns 0. Note: This function does not count the number of characters extracted, if any, and therefore does not affect the next call to gcount(). Definition at line 904 of file istream.tcc.

template<typename _CharT, typename _Traits> basic_istream< _CharT, _Traits >::pos_type std::basic_istream< _CharT, _Traits >::tellg (    )

Getting the current read position. Returns: A file position object. If fail() is not false, returns pos_type(-1) to indicate failure. Otherwise returns rdbuf()->pubseekoff(0,cur,in). Note: This function does not count the number of characters extracted, if any, and therefore does not affect the next call to gcount(). Definition at line 936 of file istream.tcc.

template<typename _CharT, typename _Traits> basic_istream< _CharT, _Traits > & std::basic_istream< _CharT, _Traits >::unget (    )

Unextracting the previous character. Returns: *this If rdbuf() is not null, calls rdbuf()->sungetc(c). If rdbuf() is null or if sungetc() fails, sets badbit in the error state. Note: Since no characters are extracted, the next call to gcount() will return 0, as required by DR 60. Definition at line 873 of file istream.tcc.
