Member Function Documentation

bool ios::bad ( ) const

Parameters

[in]

state

The flags you want to set after clearing all flags.

bool ios::eof ( ) const

inlineinherited

Warning: An empty file returns false before the first read.

Moral: eof() is only useful in combination with fail(), to find out whether EOF was the cause for failure

bool ios::fail ( ) const

inlineinherited

Returns

true if any iostate bit other than eof are set else false.

char ios_base::fill ( )

inlineinherited

Returns

fill character

char ios_base::fill ( char  c )

inlineinherited

Returns

The number of characters extracted by the last unformatted input function.

int istream::get ( )

inherited

inherited

Extract a character if one is available.

Parameters

[out]

c

location to receive the extracted character.

Returns

always returns *this. A failure is indicated by the stream state.

inherited

Extract characters.

Parameters

[out]	str	Location to receive extracted characters.
[in]	n	Size of str.
[in]	delim	Delimiter

Characters are extracted until extraction fails, n is less than 1, n-1 characters are extracted, or the next character equals delim (delim is not extracted). If no characters are extracted failbit is set. If end-of-file occurs the eofbit is set.

Returns

always returns *this. A failure is indicated by the stream state.

inherited

Extract characters

Parameters

[out]	str	Location to receive extracted characters.
[in]	n	Size of str.
[in]	delim	Delimiter

Characters are extracted until extraction fails, the next character equals delim (delim is extracted), or n-1 characters are extracted.

The failbit is set if no characters are extracted or n-1 characters are extracted. If end-of-file occurs the eofbit is set.

Returns

always returns *this. A failure is indicated by the stream state.
