> class basic_ios : public std::ios_base

The class std::basic_ios provides facilities for interfacing with objects that have std::basic_streambuf interface. Several std::basic_ios objects can refer to one actual std::basic_streambuf object.

Member types and constants

Type Explanation
stream open mode type

The following constants are also defined:

Constant Explanation[edit]
app seek to the end of stream before each write[edit]
binary open in binary mode[edit]
in open for reading[edit]
out open for writing[edit]
trunc discard the contents of the stream when opening[edit]
ate seek to the end of stream immediately after open[edit]
noreplace (C++23) open in exclusive mode[edit]

(typedef) [edit]
formatting flags type

The following constants are also defined:

Constant Explanation[edit]
dec use decimal base for integer I/O: see std::dec[edit]
oct use octal base for integer I/O: see std::oct[edit]
hex use hexadecimal base for integer I/O: see std::hex[edit]
basefield dec | oct | hex. Useful for masking operations[edit]
left left adjustment (adds fill characters to the right): see std::left[edit]
right right adjustment (adds fill characters to the left): see std::right[edit]
internal internal adjustment (adds fill characters to the internal designated point): see std::internal[edit]
adjustfield left | right | internal. Useful for masking operations[edit]
scientific generate floating point types using scientific notation, or hex notation if combined with fixed: see std::scientific[edit]
fixed generate floating point types using fixed notation, or hex notation if combined with scientific: see std::fixed[edit]
floatfield scientific | fixed. Useful for masking operations[edit]
boolalpha insert and extract bool type in alphanumeric format: see std::boolalpha[edit]
showbase generate a prefix indicating the numeric base for integer output, require the currency indicator in monetary I/O: see std::showbase[edit]
showpoint generate a decimal-point character unconditionally for floating-point number output: see std::showpoint[edit]
showpos generate a + character for non-negative numeric output: see std::showpos[edit]
skipws skip leading whitespace before certain input operations: see std::skipws[edit]
unitbuf flush the output after each output operation: see std::unitbuf[edit]
uppercase replace certain lowercase letters with their uppercase
equivalents in certain output operations: see std::uppercase[edit]

(typedef) [edit]
state of the stream type

The following constants are also defined:

Constant Explanation[edit]
goodbit no error[edit]
badbit irrecoverable stream error[edit]
failbit input/output operation failed (formatting or extraction error)[edit]
eofbit associated input sequence has reached end-of-file[edit]

(typedef) [edit]
seeking direction type

The following constants are also defined:

Constant Explanation[edit]
beg the beginning of a stream[edit]
end the ending of a stream[edit]
cur the current position of stream position indicator[edit]

(typedef) [edit]
specifies event type
(enum) [edit]
callback function type
(typedef) [edit]

Notes

Straightforward implementation of std::basic_ios stores only the following members (which all depend on the template parameters and thus cannot be part of std::ios_base):

  • the fill character (see fill())
  • the tied stream pointer (see tie())
  • the associated stream buffer pointer (see rdbuf())

Actual implementations vary:

Microsoft Visual Studio stores just those three members.

LLVM libc++ stores 1 less member: it maintains the rdbuf pointer as a void* member of ios_base.

GNU libstdc++ stores 4 additional members: three cached facets and a flag to indicate that fill was initialized
