C++
 
Input/output library
 

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:

cpp/io/ios basecpp/io/basic ioscpp/io/basic istreamcpp/io/basic ifstreamcpp/io/basic istringstreamcpp/io/basic ostreamcpp/io/basic ofstreamcpp/io/basic ostringstreamcpp/io/basic fstreamcpp/io/basic stringstreamcpp/io/basic iostreamstd-io-complete-inheritance.svg

Typedefs

The following typedefs for common character types are provided: 

typedef basic_ios<char>                ios;
typedef basic_ios<wchar_t>            wios;

typedef basic_stringstream<wchar_t>   wstringstream;
 
typedef basic_osyncstream<char>    osyncstream;
typedef basic_osyncstream<wchar_t> wosyncstream ;

Predefined standard stream objects

Defined in header <iostream>
reads from the standard C input stream stdin
(global object)[edit]
writes to the standard C output stream stdout
(global object)[edit]
writes to the standard C error stream stderr, unbuffered
(global object)[edit]
writes to the standard C error stream stderr
(global object)[edit]

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)

The following specializations of std::fpos are provided:

Defined in header <ios>
Type Definition
streampos std::fpos<std::char_traits<char>::state_type>
wstreampos std::fpos<std::char_traits<wchar_t>::state_type>

Error category interface

Defined in header <ios>
(C++11)
 the IO stream error codes
(enum) [edit]
(C++11)
 identifies the iostream error category
(function) [edit]

C-style IO

C++ also includes the input/output functions defined by C, such as std::fopen, std::getc, etc.
