Input-Output base classes
Header providing base classes and types for the IOStream hierarchy of classes:
Types
Class templates
- basic_ios
- Base class for streams (type-dependent components) (class template)
- fpos
- Stream position class template (class template)
Classes
- ios
- Base class for streams (type-dependent components) (class)
- ios_base
- Base class for streams (class)
- wios
- Base class for wide character streams (class)
Other types
- io_errc
- Input/output error conditions (enum class)
- streamoff
- Stream offset type (type)
- streampos
- Stream position type (type)
- streamsize
- Stream size type (type)
- wstreampos
- Wide stream position type (type)
Format flag manipulators (functions)
Independent flags (switch on):
- boolalpha
- Alphanumerical bool values (function)
- showbase
- Show numerical base prefixes (function)
- showpoint
- Show decimal point (function)
- showpos
- Show positive signs (function)
- skipws
- Skip whitespaces (function)
- unitbuf
- Flush buffer after insertions (function)
- uppercase
- Generate upper-case letters (function)
Independent flags (switch off):
- noboolalpha
- No alphanumerical bool values (function)
- noshowbase
- Do not show numerical base prefixes (function)
- noshowpoint
- Do not show decimal point (function)
- noshowpos
- Do not show positive signs (function)
- noskipws
- Do not skip whitespaces (function)
- nounitbuf
- Do not force flushes after insertions (function)
- nouppercase
- Do not generate upper case letters (function)
Numerical base format flags ("basefield" flags):
- dec
- Use decimal base (function)
- hex
- Use hexadecimal base (function)
- oct
- Use octal base (function)
Floating-point format flags ("floatfield" flags):
- fixed
- Use fixed floating-point notation (function)
- scientific
- Use scientific floating-point notation (function)
Adustment format flags ("adjustfield" flags):
- internal
- Adjust field by inserting characters at an internal position (function)
- left
- Adjust output to the left (function)
- right
- Adjust output to the right (function)
Other functions
- iostream_category
- Return iostream category (function)
Notice that not all standard manipulators are defined in this header. Input streams also support ws, and output streams endl, ends and flush. Streams also support an additional set of manipulators, which are parametric and defined apart in header <iomanip>. These are: setiosflags, resetiosflags, setbase, setfill, setprecision, setw
