class
<istream> <iostream>
std::wiostream
typedef basic_iostream<wchar_t> wiostream;
Input/output stream (wide)
This is an instantiation of basic_iostream with the following template parameters:
template parameter | definition | comments |
charT | wchar_t | Aliased as member char_type |
traits | char_traits<wchar_t> | Aliased as member traits_type |
This class inherits all members from its two parent classes wistream and wostream, thus being able to perform both input and output operations.
The class relies on a single wstreambuf object for both the input and output operations.
Objects of these classes keep a set of internal fields inherited from ios_base and wios:
| field | member functions | description |
Formatting | format flags | flags setf unsetf | A set of internal flags that affect how certain input/output operations are interpreted or generated.
See member type fmtflags. |
field width | width | Width of the next formatted element to insert. |
display precision | precision | Decimal precision for the next floating-point value inserted. |
locale | getloc imbue | The locale object used by the function for formatted input/output operations affected by localization properties. |
fill character | fill | Character to pad a formatted field up to the field width (width). |
State | error state | rdstate setstate clear | The current error state of the stream.
Individual values may be obtained by calling good, eof, fail and bad.
See member type iostate. |
exception mask | exceptions | The state flags for which a failure exception is thrown.
See member type iostate. |
Other | callback stack | register_callback | Stack of pointers to functions that are called when certain events occur. |
extensible arrays | iword pword xalloc | Internal arrays to store objects of type long and void* . |
tied stream | tie | Pointer to output stream that is flushed before each i/o operation on this stream. |
stream buffer | rdbuf | Pointer to the associated wstreambuf object, which is charge of all input/output operations. |
Member types
Member types char_type, traits_type, int_type, pos_type and off_type are ambiguous (multiple inheritance).
The class declares the following member types:
