C++ includes two input/output libraries: a modern, stream-based I/O library and the standard set of C-style I/O functions.
Contents |
Stream-based I/O
The stream-based input/output library is organized around abstract input/output devices. These abstract devices allow the same code to handle input/output to files, memory streams, or custom adaptor devices that perform arbitrary operations (e.g. compression) on the fly.
Most of the classes are templated, so they can be adapted to any basic character type. Separate typedefs are provided for the most common basic character types (char and wchar_t). The classes are organized into the following hierarchy:

Typedefs
The following typedefs for common character types are provided:
typedef basic_ios<char> ios; typedef basic_ios<wchar_t> wios; typedef basic_streambuf<char> streambuf; typedef basic_streambuf<wchar_t> wstreambuf; typedef basic_filebuf<char> filebuf; typedef basic_filebuf<wchar_t> wfilebuf; typedef basic_stringbuf<char> stringbuf; typedef basic_stringbuf<wchar_t> wstringbuf; typedef basic_istream<char> istream; typedef basic_istream<wchar_t> wistream; typedef basic_ostream<char> ostream; typedef basic_ostream<wchar_t> wostream; typedef basic_iostream<char> iostream; typedef basic_iostream<wchar_t> wiostream; typedef basic_ifstream<char> ifstream; typedef basic_ifstream<wchar_t> wifstream; typedef basic_ofstream<char> ofstream; typedef basic_ofstream<wchar_t> wofstream; typedef basic_fstream<char> fstream; typedef basic_fstream<wchar_t> wfstream; typedef basic_istringstream<char> istringstream; typedef basic_istringstream<wchar_t> wistringstream; typedef basic_ostringstream<char> ostringstream; typedef basic_ostringstream<wchar_t> wostringstream; typedef basic_stringstream<char> stringstream; typedef basic_stringstream<wchar_t> wstringstream;
Predefined standard stream objects:
extern istream cin; //standard input (stdin) extern wistream wcin; extern ostream cout; //standard output (stdout) extern wostream wcout; extern ostream cerr; //standard error (stderr) extern wostream wcerr; extern ostream clog; //standard log (stdlog) extern wostream wclog;
I/O Manipulators
The stream-based I/O library uses I/O manipulators (e.g. std::boolalpha, std::hex, etc.) to control how streams behave.
Types
The following auxiliary types are defined:
Defined in header
<ios> | |
represents relative file/stream position (offset from fpos), sufficient to represent any file size (typedef) | |
represents the number of characters transferred in an I/O operation or the size of an I/O buffer (typedef) | |
represents absolute position in a stream or a file (class template) |
Four specializations of std::fpos are provided:
Defined in header
<ios> | |
Type | Definition |
streampos
|
std::fpos<std::char_traits<char>::state_type> |
u16streampos
|
std::fpos<std::char_traits<char16_t>::state_type> |
u32streampos
|
std::fpos<std::char_traits<char32_t>::state_type> |
wstreampos
|
std::fpos<std::char_traits<wchar_t>::state_type> |
Error category interface
Defined in header
<ios> |
C-style IO
C++ also includes the input/output functions defined by C, such as std::fopen, std::getc, etc.
