(since C++17)

std::to_chars_result is the return type of std::to_chars. It has no base classes, and only has the following members.

Contents

[edit] Data members

Member name Definition
ptr
a pointer of type char*
(public member object)
ec
an error code of type std::errc
(public member object)

[edit] Member and friend functions

operator==(std::to_chars_result)

friend bool operator==( const to_chars_result&,
                        const to_chars_result& ) = default;
(since C++20)

Compares the two arguments using default comparisons (which uses operator== to compare ptr and ec respectively).

This function is not visible to ordinary unqualified or qualified lookup, and can only be found by argument-dependent lookup when std::to_chars_result is an associated class of the arguments.

The != operator is synthesized from operator==.

operator bool

constexpr explicit operator bool() const noexcept;
(since C++26)

Checks whether the conversion is successful. Returns ec == std::errc{}.

void show_to_chars(auto... format_args)
{
    std::array<char, 10> str;

    // and C++26 to_chars_result::operator bool() for error checking (P2497)
    if (auto [ptr, ec] =
            std::to_chars(str.data(), str.data() + str.size(), format_args...))
        std::cout << std::string_view(str.data(), ptr) << '\n';
    else
        std::cout << std::make_error_code(ec).message() << '\n';
#elif __cpp_lib_to_chars >= 202306L
    // use C++26 to_chars_result::operator bool() for error checking (P2497)
    if (auto result =

        std::cout << std::string_view(str.data(), result.ptr) << '\n';
    else
        std::cout << std::make_error_code(result.ec).message() << '\n';
#else
    // fallback to C++17 if-with-initializer and structured bindings
    if (auto [ptr, ec] =
            std::to_chars(str.data(), str.data() + str.size(), format_args...);
        ec == std::errc())
        std::cout << std::string_view(str.data(), ptr - str.data()) << '\n';
    else
        std::cout << std::make_error_code(ec).message() << '\n';
#endif
}
 
int main()
{
    show_to_chars(42);
    show_to_chars(+3.14159F);
    show_to_chars(-3.14159, std::chars_format::fixed);
    show_to_chars(-3.14159, std::chars_format::scientific, 3);
    show_to_chars(3.1415926535, std::chars_format::fixed, 10);
}

Possible output:

42
3.14159
-3.14159
-3.142e+00
Value too large for defined data type
