            const Byte *next1,
        Elem *first2, Elem *last2, Elem *next2);
    virtual result do_out(Statype& state,

    virtual int do_encoding() const throw();
    virtual int do_length(const Statype& state,
        const Byte *first1, const Byte *last1,
            size_t len2) const throw();
    };

The template class describes an object that can serve as a locale facet, to control conversions between a sequence of values of type Elem and a sequence of values of type Byte. The class Statype characterizes the transformation -- and an object of class Statype stores any necessary state information during a conversion.

As with any locale facet, the static object id has an initial stored value of zero. The first attempt to access its stored value stores a unique positive value in id.

The template versions of do_in and do_out always return codecvt_base::noconv. The Standard C++ library defines an explicit specialization, however, that is more useful:

template<>
    codecvt<wchar_t, char, mbstate_t>

which converts between wchar_t and char sequences.

codecvt::always_noconv

bool always_noconv() const throw();

The member function returns do_always_noconv().

codecvt::codecvt

explicit codecvt(size_t refs = 0);

The constructor initializes its locale::facet base object with locale::facet(refs).

codecvt::do_always_noconv

virtual bool do_always_noconv() const throw();

The protected virtual member function returns true only if every call to do_in or do_out returns noconv. The template version always returns true.

codecvt::do_encoding

virtual int do_encoding() const throw();

The protected virtual member function returns:

• -1, if the encoding of sequences of type extern_type is state dependent
• 0, if the encoding involves sequences of varying lengths
• N, if the encoding involves only sequences of length N

codecvt::do_in

virtual result do_in(Statype state&,
    const Byte *first1, const Byte *last1, const Byte *next1,
    Elem *first2, Elem *last2, Elem *next2);

The protected virtual member function endeavors to convert the source sequence at [first1, last1) to a destination sequence that it stores within [first2, last2). It always stores in next1 a pointer to the first unconverted element in the source sequence, and it always stores in next2 a pointer to the first unaltered element in the destination sequence.

state must represent the initial conversion state at the beginning of a new source sequence. The function alters its stored value, as needed, to reflect the current state of a successful conversion. Its stored value is otherwise unspecified.

The function returns:

• codecvt_base::error if the source sequence is ill formed
• codecvt_base::noconv if the function performs no conversion
• codecvt_base::ok if the conversion succeeds
• codecvt_base::partial if the source is insufficient, or if the destination is not large enough, for the conversion to succeed

The template version always returns noconv.

codecvt::do_length

virtual int do_length(const Statype state&,
    const Byte *first1, const Byte *last1,
        size_t len2) const throw();

The protected virtual member function effectively calls do_in(mystate, first1, last1, next1, buf, buf + len2, next2) for mystate a copy of state, some buffer buf, and pointers next1 and next2. It then returns next2 - buf. (Thus, it counts the maximum number of conversions, not greater than len2, defined by the source sequence at [first1, last1).)

The template version always returns the lesser of last1 - first1 and len2.

codecvt::do_max_length

virtual int do_max_length() const throw();

The protected virtual member function returns the largest permissible value that can be returned by do_length(first1, last1, 1), for arbitrary valid values of first1 and last1. (Thus, it is roughly analogous to the macro MB_CUR_MAX, at least when Byte is type char.)

The template version always returns 1.

codecvt::do_out

virtual result do_out(Statype state&,
    const Elem *first1, const Elem *last1,
        const Elem *next1,
    Byte *first2, Byte *last2, Byte *next2);

The protected virtual member function endeavors to convert the source sequence at [first1, last1) to a destination sequence that it stores within [first2, last2). It always stores in next1 a pointer to the first unconverted element in the source sequence, and it always stores in next2 a pointer to the first unaltered element in the destination sequence.

state must represent the initial conversion state at the beginning of a new source sequence. The function alters its stored value, as needed, to reflect the current state of a successful conversion. Its stored value is otherwise unspecified.

The function returns:

• codecvt_base::error if the source sequence is ill formed
• codecvt_base::noconv if the function performs no conversion
• codecvt_base::ok if the conversion succeeds
• codecvt_base::partial if the source is insufficient, or if the destination is not large enough, for the conversion to succeed

The template version always returns noconv.

codecvt::do_unshift

virtual result do_unshift(Statype state&,
    Byte *first2, Byte *last2, Byte *next2);

The protected virtual member function endeavors to convert the source element Elem(0) to a destination sequence that it stores within [first2, last2), except for the terminating element Byte(0). It always stores in next2 a pointer to the first unaltered element in the destination sequence.

state must represent the initial conversion state at the beginning of a new source sequence. The function alters its stored value, as needed, to reflect the current state of a successful conversion. Typically, converting the source element Elem(0) leaves the current state in the initial conversion state.

The function returns:

• codecvt_base::error if state represents an invalid state
• codecvt_base::noconv if the function performs no conversion
• codecvt_base::ok if the conversion succeeds
• codecvt_base::partial if the destination is not large enough for the conversion to succeed

The template version always returns noconv.

codecvt::extern_type

typedef Byte extern_type;

The type is a synonym for the template parameter Byte.

codecvt::in

result in(Statype state&,
    const Byte *first1, const Byte *last1, const Byte *next1,
    Elem *first2, Elem *last2, Elem *next2);

The member function returns do_in(state, first1, last1, next1, first2, last2, next2).

codecvt::intern_type

typedef Elem intern_type;

The type is a synonym for the template parameter Elem.

codecvt::length

int length(const Statype state&,
    const Byte *first1, const Byte *last1,
        size_t len2) const throw();

The member function returns do_length(first1, last1, len2).

codecvt::encoding

int encoding() const throw();

The member function returns do_encoding().

codecvt::max_length

int max_length() const throw();

The member function returns do_max_length().

codecvt::out

result out(Statype state&,
    const Elem *first1, const Elem *last1,
        const Elem *next1,
    Byte *first2, Byte *last2, Byte *next2);

The member function returns do_out(state, first1, last1, next1, first2, last2, next2).

codecvt::state_type

typedef Statype state_type;

The type is a synonym for the template parameter Statype.

codecvt::unshift

result unshift(Statype state&,
    Byte *first2, Byte *last2, Byte *next2);

The member function returns do_unshift(state, first2, last2, next2).

codecvt_base

class codecvt_base {
public:
    enum result {ok, partial, error, noconv};
    };

The class describes an enumeration common to all specializations of template class codecvt. The enumeration result describes the possible return values from do_in or do_out:

• error if the source sequence is ill formed
• noconv if the function performs no conversion
• ok if the conversion succeeds
• partial if the destination is not large enough for the conversion to succeed

codecvt_byname

template<class Elem, class Byte, class Statype>
    class codecvt_byname
        : public codecvt<Elem, Byte, Statype> {
public:
    explicit codecvt_byname(const char *locname,
        size_t refs = 0);
protected:
    ~codecvt_byname();
    };

The template class describes an object that can serve as a locale facet of type codecvt<Elem, Byte, Statype>. Its behavior is determined by the named locale locname. The constructor initializes its base object with codecvt<Elem, Byte, Statype>(refs).

collate

template<class Elem>
    class collate : public locale::facet {
public:
    typedef Elem char_type;
    typedef basic_string<Elem> string_type;
    explicit collate(size_t refs = 0);
    int compare(const Elem *first1, const Elem *last1,
        const Elem *first2, const Elem *last2) const;
    string_type transform(const Elem *first,
        const Elem *last) const;
    long hash(const Elem *first, const Elem *last) const;
    static locale::id id;
protected:
    ~collate();
    virtual int
        do_compare(const Elem *first1, const Elem *last1,
            const Elem *first2, const Elem *last2) const;
    virtual string_type do_transform(const Elem *first,
        const Elem *last) const;
    virtual long do_hash(const Elem *first,
        const Elem *last) const;
    };

The template class describes an object that can serve as a locale facet, to control comparisons of sequences of type Elem.

As with any locale facet, the static object id has an initial stored value of zero. The first attempt to access its stored value stores a unique positive value in id.

collate::char_type

typedef Elem char_type;

The type is a synonym for the template parameter Elem.

collate::collate

explicit collate(size_t refs = 0);

The constructor initializes its base object with locale::facet(refs).

collate::compare

int compare(const Elem *first1, const Elem *last1,
    const Elem *first2, const Elem *last2) const;

The member function returns do_compare(first1, last1, first2, last2).

collate::do_compare

virtual int do_compare(const Elem *first1, const Elem *last1,
    const Elem *first2, const Elem *last2) const;

The protected virtual member function compares the sequence at [first1, last1) with the sequence at [first2, last2). It compares values by applying operator< between pairs of corresponding elements of type Elem. The first sequence compares less if it has the smaller element in the earliest unequal pair in the sequences, or if no unequal pairs exist but the first sequence is shorter.

If the first sequence compares less than the second sequence, the function returns -1. If the second sequence compares less, the function returns +1. Otherwise, the function returns zero.

collate::do_hash

virtual long do_hash(const Elem *first,
    const Elem *last) const;

The protected virtual member function returns an integer derived from the values of the elements in the sequence [first, last). Such a hash value can be useful, for example, in distributing sequences pseudo randomly across an array of lists.

collate::do_transform

virtual string_type do_transform(const Elem *first,
    const Elem *last) const;

The protected virtual member function returns an object of class string_type whose controlled sequence is a copy of the sequence [first, last). If a class derived from collate<Elem> overrides do_compare, it should also override do_transform to match. Put simply, two transformed strings should yield the same result, when passed to collate::compare, that you would get from passing the untransformed strings to compare in the derived class.

collate::hash

long hash(const Elem *first, const Elem *last) const;

The member function returns do_hash(first, last).

collate::string_type

typedef basic_string<Elem> string_type;

The type describes a specialization of template class basic_string whose objects can store copies of the source sequence.

collate::transform

string_type transform(const Elem *first,
    const Elem *last) const;

The member function returns do_transform(first, last).

collate_byname

template<class Elem>
    class collate_byname : public collate<Elem> {
public:
    explicit collate_byname(const char *locname,
        size_t refs = 0);
protected:
    ~collate_byname();
    };

The template class describes an object that can serve as a locale facet of type collate<Elem>. Its behavior is determined by the named locale locname. The constructor initializes its base object with collate<Elem>(refs).

    virtual const Elem *do_narrow(const Elem *first,
        const Elem *last, char dflt, char *dest) const;
    };

The template class describes an object that can serve as a locale facet, to characterize various properties of a ``character'' (element) of type Elem. Such a facet also converts between sequences of Elem elements and sequences of char.

As with any locale facet, the static object id has an initial stored value of zero. The first attempt to access its stored value stores a unique positive value in id.

The Standard C++ library defines two explicit specializations of this template class:

• ctype<char>, an explicit specialization whose differences are described separately
• ctype<wchar_t>, which treats elements as wide characters

In this implementation, other specializations of template class ctype<Elem>:

• convert a value ch of type Elem to a value of type char with the expression (char)ch
• convert a value byte of type char to a value of type Elem with the expression Elem(byte)

All other operations are performed on char values the same as for the explicit specialization ctype<char>.

ctype::char_type

typedef Elem char_type;

The type is a synonym for the template parameter Elem.

ctype::ctype

explicit ctype(size_t refs = 0);

The constructor initializes its locale::facet base object with locale::facet(refs).

ctype::do_is

virtual bool do_is(mask maskval, Elem ch) const;
virtual const Elem *do_is(const Elem *first, const Elem *last,
    mask *dest) const;

The first protected member template function returns true if MASK(ch) & maskval is nonzero, where MASK(ch) designates the mapping between an element value ch and its classification mask, of type mask. The name MASK is purely symbolic here; it is not defined by the template class. For an object of class ctype<char>, the mapping is tab[(unsigned char)(char)ch], where tab is the stored pointer to the ctype mask table.

The second protected member template function stores in dest[I] the value MASK(first[I]) & maskval, where I ranges over the interval [0, last - first).

ctype::do_narrow

virtual char do_narrow(Elem ch, char dflt) const;
virtual const Elem *do_narrow(const Elem *first, const Elem *last,
    char dflt, char *dest) const;

The first protected member template function returns (char)ch, or dflt if that expression is undefined.

The second protected member template function stores in dest[I] the value do_narrow(first[I], dflt), for I in the interval [0, last - first).

ctype::do_scan_is

virtual const Elem *do_scan_is(mask maskval, const Elem *first,
    const Elem *last) const;

The protected member function returns the smallest pointer ptr in the range [first, last) for which do_is(maskval, *ptr) is true. If no such value exists, the function returns last.

ctype::do_scan_not

virtual const Elem *do_scan_not(mask maskval, const Elem *first,
    const Elem *last) const;

The protected member function returns the smallest pointer ptr in the range [first, last) for which do_is(maskval, *ptr) is false. If no such value exists, the function returns last.

ctype::do_tolower

virtual Elem do_tolower(Elem ch) const;
virtual const Elem *do_tolower(Elem *first, Elem *last) const;

The first protected member template function returns the lowercase character corresponding to ch, if such a character exists. Otherwise, it returns ch.

The second protected member template function replaces each element first[I], for I in the interval [0, last - first), with do_tolower(first[I]).

ctype::do_toupper

virtual Elem do_toupper(Elem ch) const;
virtual const Elem *do_toupper(Elem *first, Elem *last) const;

The first protected member template function returns the uppercase character corresponding to ch, if such a character exists. Otherwise, it returns ch.

The second protected member template function replaces each element first[I], for I in the interval [0, last - first), with do_toupper(first[I]).

ctype::do_widen

virtual Elem do_widen(char byte) const;
virtual const char *do_widen(char *first, char *last,
    Elem *dest) const;

The first protected member template function returns Elem(byte).

The second protected member template function stores in dest[I] the value do_widen(first[I]), for I in the interval [0, last - first).

ctype::is

bool is(mask maskval, Elem ch) const;
const Elem *is(const Elem *first, const Elem *last,
    mask *dest) const;

The first member function returns do_is(maskval, ch). The second member function returns do_is(first, last, dest).

ctype::narrow

char narrow(Elem ch, char dflt) const;
const Elem *narrow(const Elem *first, const Elem *last,
    char dflt, char *dest) const;

The first member function returns do_narrow(ch, dflt). The second member function returns do_narrow(first, last, dflt, dest).

ctype::scan_is

const Elem *scan_is(mask maskval, const Elem *first,
    const Elem *last) const;

The member function returns do_scan_is(maskval, first, last).

ctype::scan_not

const Elem *scan_not(mask maskval, const Elem *first,
    const Elem *last) const;

The member function returns do_scan_not(maskval, first, last).

ctype::tolower

Elem tolower(Elem ch) const;
const Elem *tolower(Elem *first, Elem *last) const;

The first member function returns do_tolower(ch). The second member function returns do_tolower(first, last).

ctype::toupper

Elem toupper(Elem ch) const;
const Elem *toupper(Elem *first, Elem *last) const;

The first member function returns do_toupper(ch). The second member function returns do_toupper(first, last).

ctype::widen

Elem widen(char byte) const;
const char *widen(char *first, char *last, Elem *dest) const;

The first member function returns do_widen(byte). The second member function returns do_widen(first, last, dest).

    static const size_t table_size;
    };

The class is an explicit specialization of template class ctype for type char. Hence, it describes an object that can serve as a locale facet, to characterize various properties of a ``character'' (element) of type char. The explicit specialization differs from the template class in several ways:

• An object of class ctype<char> stores a pointer to the first element of a ctype mask table, an array of UCHAR_MAX + 1 elements of type ctype_base::mask. It also stores a boolean object that indicates whether the array should be deleted (using operator delete[]) when the ctype<Elem> object is destroyed.
• Its sole public constructor lets you specify tab, the ctype mask table, and del, the boolean object that is true if the array should be deleted when the ctype<char> object is destroyed -- as well as the usual reference-count parameter refs.
• The protected member function table() returns the stored ctype mask table.
• The static member object table_size specifies the minimum number of elements in a ctype mask table.
• The protected static member function classic_table() returns the ctype mask table appropriate to the "C" locale.
• There are no protected virtual member functions do_is, do_scan_is, or do_scan_not. The corresponding public member functions perform the equivalent operations themselves.
• The member functions do_narrow and do_widen simply copy elements unaltered.

ctype_base

class ctype_base {
public:
    enum mask {
        space = 1 << 0,  // EXAMPLE VALUES ONLY
        print = 1 << 1,
        cntrl = 1 << 2,
        upper = 1 << 3,
        lower = 1 << 4,
        digit = 1 << 5,
        punct = 1 << 6,
        xdigit = 1 << 7,
        alpha = 1 << 8,
        alnum = 0x9 << 5,
        graph = 0xB << 5};

The class serves as a base class for facets of template class ctype. It defines just the enumeration mask. Each of the enumeration constants characterizes a different way to classify characters, as defined by the functions with similar names declared in the header <ctype.h>. The constants are:

• space (function isspace)
• print (function isprint)
• cntrl (function iscntrl)
• upper (function isupper)
• lower (function islower)
• digit (function isdigit)
• punct (function ispunct)
• xdigit (function isxdigit)
• alpha (function isalpha)
• alnum (function isalnum)
• graph (function isgraph)

You can charaterize a combination of classifications by ORing these constants. In particular, it is always true that alnum == (alpha | digit) and graph == (alnum | punct).

ctype_byname

template<class Elem>
    class ctype_byname : public ctype<Elem> {
public:
    explicit ctype_byname(const char *locname,
        size_t refs = 0);
protected:
    ~ctype_byname();
    };

The template class describes an object that can serve as a locale facet of type ctype<Elem>. Its behavior is determined by the named locale locname. The constructor initializes its base object with ctype<Elem>(refs) (or the equivalent for base class ctype<char>).

has_facet

template<class Facet>
    bool has_facet(const locale& loc);

The template function returns true if a locale facet of class Facet is listed within the locale object loc.

isalnum

template<class Elem>
    bool isalnum(Elem ch, const locale& loc) const;

The template function returns use_facet< ctype<Elem> >(loc). is(ctype<Elem>:: alnum, ch).

isalpha

template<class Elem>
    bool isalpha(Elem ch, const locale& loc) const;

The template function returns use_facet< ctype<Elem> >(loc). is(ctype<Elem>:: alpha, ch).

iscntrl

template<class Elem>
    bool iscntrl(Elem ch, const locale& loc) const;

The template function returns use_facet< ctype<Elem> >(loc). is(ctype<Elem>:: cntrl, ch).

isdigit

template<class Elem>
    bool isdigit(Elem ch, const locale& loc) const;

The template function returns use_facet< ctype<Elem> >(loc). is(ctype<Elem>:: digit, ch).

isgraph

template<class Elem>
    bool isgraph(Elem ch, const locale& loc) const;

The template function returns use_facet< ctype<Elem> >(loc). is(ctype<Elem>:: graph, ch).

islower

template<class Elem>
    bool islower(Elem ch, const locale& loc) const;

The template function returns use_facet< ctype<Elem> >(loc). is(ctype<Elem>:: lower, ch).

isprint

template<class Elem>
    bool isprint(Elem ch, const locale& loc) const;

The template function returns use_facet< ctype<Elem> >(loc). is(ctype<Elem>:: print, ch).

ispunct

template<class Elem>
    bool ispunct(Elem ch, const locale& loc) const;

The template function returns use_facet< ctype<Elem> >(loc). is(ctype<Elem>:: punct, ch).

isspace

template<class Elem>
    bool isspace(Elem ch, const locale& loc) const;

The template function returns use_facet< ctype<Elem> >(loc). is(ctype<Elem>:: space, ch).

isupper

template<class Elem>
    bool isupper(Elem ch, const locale& loc) const;

The template function returns use_facet< ctype<Elem> >(loc). is(ctype<Elem>:: upper, ch).

isxdigit

template<class Elem>
    bool isxdigit(Elem ch, const locale& loc) const;

The template function returns use_facet< ctype<Elem> >(loc). is(ctype<Elem>:: xdigit, ch).

class locale {
public:
    class facet;

    typedef int category;
    static const category none, collate, ctype, monetary,
        numeric, time, messages, all;
    locale();
    explicit locale(const char *locname);
    locale(const locale& loc, const locale& other,
        category cat);
    locale(const locale& loc, const char *locname, category cat);
    template<class Facet>

    template<class Elem, class Tr, class Alloc>
        bool operator()(const basic_string<Elem, Tr, Alloc>& left,
            const basic_string<Elem, Tr, Alloc>& right) const;
    string name() const;
    bool operator==(const locale& right) const;
    bool operator!=(const locale& right) const;
    static locale global(const locale& right);
    static const locale& classic();
    };

The class describes a locale object that encapsulates a locale. It represents culture-specific information as a list of facets. A facet is a pointer to an object of a class derived from class facet that has a public object of the form:

static locale::id id;

You can define an open-ended set of these facets. You can also construct a locale object that designates an arbitrary number of facets.

Predefined groups of these facets represent the locale categories traditionally managed in the Standard C library by the function setlocale.

Category collate (LC_COLLATE) includes the facets:

collate<char>
collate<wchar_t>

Category ctype (LC_CTYPE) includes the facets:

ctype<char>
ctype<wchar_t>
codecvt<char, char, mbstate_t>
codecvt<wchar_t, char, mbstate_t>

Category monetary (LC_MONETARY) includes the facets:

moneypunct<char, false>
moneypunct<wchar_t, false>
moneypunct<char, true>
moneypunct<wchar_t, true>
money_get<char, istreambuf_iterator<char> >
money_get<wchar_t, istreambuf_iterator<wchar_t> >
money_put<char, ostreambuf_iterator<char> >
money_put<wchar_t, ostreambuf_iterator<wchar_t> >

Category numeric (LC_NUMERIC) includes the facets:

num_get<char, istreambuf_iterator<char> >
num_get<wchar_t, istreambuf_iterator<wchar_t> >
num_put<char, ostreambuf_iterator<char> >
num_put<wchar_t, ostreambuf_iterator<wchar_t> >
numpunct<char>
numpunct<wchar_t>

Category time (LC_TIME) includes the facets:

time_get<char, istreambuf_iterator<char> >
time_get<wchar_t, istreambuf_iterator<wchar_t> >
time_put<char, ostreambuf_iterator<char> >
time_put<wchar_t, ostreambuf_iterator<wchar_t> >

Category messages (LC_MESSAGES) includes the facets:

messages<char>
messages<wchar_t>

(The last category is required by Posix, but not the C Standard.)

Some of these predefined facets are used by the iostreams classes, to control the conversion of numeric values to and from text sequences.

An object of class locale also stores a locale name as an object of class string. Using an invalid locale name to construct a locale facet or a locale object throws an object of class runtime_error. The stored locale name is "*" if the locale object cannot be certain that a C-style locale corresponds exactly to that represented by the object. Otherwise, you can establish a matching locale within the Standard C library, for the locale object loc, by calling setlocale( LC_ALL, loc.name. c_str()).

In this implementation, you can also call the static member function:

static locale empty();

to construct a locale object that has no facets. It is also a transparent locale -- if the template functions has_facet and use_facet cannot find the requested facet in a transparent locale, they consult first the global locale and then, if that is transparent, the classic locale. Thus, you can write:

cout.imbue(locale::empty());

Subsequent insertions to cout are mediated by the current state of the global locale. You can even write:

locale loc(locale::empty(), locale::classic(),
    locale::numeric);
cout.imbue(loc);

Numeric formatting rules for subsequent insertions to cout remain the same as in the C locale, even as the global locale supplies changing rules for inserting dates and monetary amounts.

locale::category

typedef int category;
static const category none, collate, ctype, monetary,
    numeric, time, messages, all;

The type is a synonym for int so that it can represent any of the C locale categories. It can represent a group of distinct elements of a bitmask type (which is anonymous) local to class locale. The elements are:

• collate, corresponding to the C category LC_COLLATE
• ctype, corresponding to the C category LC_CTYPE
• monetary, corresponding to the C category LC_MONETARY
• numeric, corresponding to the C category LC_NUMERIC
• time, corresponding to the C category LC_TIME
• messages, corresponding to the Posix category LC_MESSAGES

In addition, two useful values are:

• none, corresponding to none of the C categories
• all, corresponding to the C union of all categories LC_ALL

You can represent an arbitrary group of categories by ORing these constants, as in monetary | time.

locale::classic

static const locale& classic();

The static member function returns a locale object that represents the classic locale, which behaves the same as the C locale within the Standard C library.

locale::combine

template<class Facet>
    locale combine(const locale& loc) const;

The member function returns a locale object that replaces in (or adds to) *this the facet Facet listed in loc.

locale::facet

class facet {
protected:
    explicit facet(size_t refs = 0);
    virtual ~facet();
private:
    facet(const facet&)          // not defined
    void operator=(const facet&) // not defined
    };

The member class serves as the base class for all locale facets. Note that you can neither copy nor assign an object of class facet. You can construct and destroy objects derived from class locale::facet, but not objects of the base class proper. Typically, you construct an object myfac derived from facet when you construct a locale, as in:

locale loc(locale::classic(), new myfac);

In such cases, the constructor for the base class facet should have a zero refs argument. When the object is no longer needed, it is deleted. Thus, you supply a nonzero refs argument only in those rare cases where you take responsibility for the lifetime of the object.

locale::global

static locale global(const locale& loc);

The static member function stores a copy of loc as the global locale. It also calls setlocale( LC_ALL, loc.name. c_str()), to establishing a matching locale within the Standard C library. The function then returns the previous global locale. At program startup, the global locale is the same as the classic locale.

locale::id

class id {
protected:
    id();
private:
    id(const id&)             // not defined
    void operator=(const id&) // not defined
    };

The member class describes the static member object required by each unique locale facet. Note that you can neither copy nor assign an object of class id.

locale::locale

locale();
explicit locale(const char *locname);
locale(const locale& loc, const locale& other,
    category cat);
locale(const locale& loc, const char *locname, category cat);
template<class Facet>
    locale(const locale& loc, Facet *fac);

The first constructor initializes the object to match the global locale. The second constructor initializes all the locale categories to have behavior consistent with the locale name locname. The remaining constructors copy loc, with the exceptions noted:

locale(const locale& loc, const locale& other,
    category cat);

replaces from other those facets corresponding to a category C for which C & cat is nonzero.

locale(const locale& loc, const char *locname, category cat);

replaces from locale(locname, all) those facets corresponding to a category C for which C & cat is nonzero.

template<class Facet>
    locale(const locale& loc, Facet *fac);

replaces in (or adds to) loc the facet fac, if fac is not a null pointer.

If a locale name locname is a null pointer or otherwise invalid, the function throws runtime_error.

locale::name

string name() const;

The member function returns the stored locale name.

locale::operator!=

bool operator!=(const locale& right) const;

The member function returns !(*this == right).

locale::operator()

template<class Elem, class Tr, class Alloc>
    bool operator()(const basic_string<Elem, Tr, Alloc>& left,
        const basic_string<Elem, Tr, Alloc>& right);

The member function effectively executes:

const collate<Elem>& fac = use_fac<collate<Elem> >(*this);
return (fac.compare(left.begin(), left.end(),
    right.begin(), right.end()) < 0);

Thus, you can use a locale object as a function object.

locale::operator==

bool operator==(const locale& right) const;

The member function returns true only if *this and right are copies of the same locale or have the same name (other than "*").

messages

template<class Elem>
    class messages
        : public locale::facet, public messages_base {
public:
    typedef Elem char_type;
    typedef basic_string<Elem> string_type;
    explicit messages(size_t refs = 0);
    catalog open(const string& catname,
        const locale& loc) const;
    string_type get(catalog catval, int set, int message,
        const string_type& dflt) const;
    void close(catalog catval) const;
    static locale::id id;
protected:
    ~messages();
    virtual catalog do_open(const string& catname,
        const locale& loc) const;
    virtual string_type do_get(catalog catval, int set,
        int message, const string_type& dflt) const;
    virtual void do_close(catalog catval) const;
    };

The template class describes an object that can serve as a locale facet, to characterize various properties of a message catalog that can supply messages represented as sequences of elements of type Elem.

As with any locale facet, the static object id has an initial stored value of zero. The first attempt to access its stored value stores a unique positive value in id.

messages::char_type

typedef Elem char_type;

The type is a synonym for the template parameter Elem.

messages::close

void close(catalog catval) const;

The member function calls do_close(catval);.

messages::do_close

virtual void do_close(catalog catval) const;

The protected member function closes the message catalog catval, which must have been opened by an earlier call to do_open.

messages::do_get

virtual string_type do_get(catalog catval, int set, int message,
    const string_type& dflt) const;

The protected member function endeavors to obtain a message sequence from the message catalog catval. It may make use of set, message, and dflt in doing so. It returns a copy of dflt on failure. Otherwise, it returns a copy of the specified message sequence.

messages::do_open

virtual catalog do_open(const string& catname,
    const locale& loc) const;

The protected member function endeavors to open a message catalog whose name is catname. It may make use of the locale loc in doing so. It returns a value that compares less than zero on failure. Otherwise, the returned value can be used as the first argument on a later call to get. It should in any case be used as the argument on a later call to close.

messages::get

string_type get(catalog catval, int set, int message,
    const string_type& dflt) const;

The member function returns do_get(catval, set, message, dflt);.

messages::messages

explicit messages(size_t refs = 0);

The constructor initializes its base object with locale::facet(refs).

messages::open

catalog open(const string& catname,
    const locale& loc) const;

The member function returns do_open(catname, loc);.

messages::string_type

typedef basic_string<Elem> string_type;

The type describes a specialization of template class basic_string whose objects can store copies of the message sequences.

messages_base

class messages_base {
    typedef int catalog;
    };

The class describes a type common to all specializations of template class messages. The type catalog is a synonym for type int that describes the possible return values from messages::do_open.

messages_byname

template<class Elem>
    class messages_byname : public messages<Elem> {
public:
    explicit messages_byname(const char *locname,
        size_t refs = 0);
protected:
    ~messages_byname();
    };

The template class describes an object that can serve as a locale facet of type messages<Elem>. Its behavior is determined by the named locale locname. The constructor initializes its base object with messages<Elem>(refs).

money_base

class money_base {
    enum part {none, sign, space, symbol, value};
    struct pattern {
        char field[4];
        };
    };

The class describes an enumeration and a structure common to all specializations of template class moneypunct. The enumeration part describes the possible values in elements of the array field in the structure pattern. The values of part are:

• none to match zero or more spaces or generate nothing
• sign to match or generate a positive or negative sign
• space to match zero or more spaces or generate a space
• symbol to match or generate a currency symbol
• value to match or generate a monetary value

money_get

template<class Elem,
    class InIt = istreambuf_iterator<Elem> >
    class money_get : public locale::facet {
public:
    typedef Elem char_type;
    typedef InIt iter_type;
    typedef basic_string<Elem> string_type;
    explicit money_get(size_t refs = 0);
    iter_type get(iter_type first, iter_type last,
        bool intl, ios_base& iosbase, ios_base::iostate& state,
            long double& val) const;
    iter_type get(iter_type first, iter_type last,
        bool intl, ios_base& iosbase, ios_base::iostate& state,
            string_type& val) const;
    static locale::id id;
protected:
    ~money_get();
    virtual iter_type do_get(iter_type first,
        iter_type last, bool intl, ios_base& iosbase,
        ios_base::iostate& state, string_type& val) const;
    virtual iter_type do_get(iter_type first,
        iter_type last, bool intl, ios_base& iosbase,
        ios_base::iostate& state, long double& val) const;
    };

The template class describes an object that can serve as a locale facet, to control conversions of sequences of type Elem to monetary values.

As with any locale facet, the static object id has an initial stored value of zero. The first attempt to access its stored value stores a unique positive value in id.

money_get::char_type

typedef Elem char_type;

The type is a synonym for the template parameter Elem.

money_get::do_get

virtual iter_type do_get(iter_type first, iter_type last,
    bool intl, ios_base& iosbase, ios_base::iostate& state,
        string_type& val) const;
virtual iter_type do_get(iter_type first, iter_type last,
    bool intl, ios_base& iosbase, ios_base::iostate& state,
        long double& val) const;

The first virtual protected member function endeavors to match sequential elements beginning at first in the sequence [first, last) until it has recognized a complete, nonempty monetary input field. If successful, it converts this field to a sequence of one or more decimal digits, optionally preceded by a minus sign (-), to represent the amount and stores the result in the string_type object val. It returns an iterator designating the first element beyond the monetary input field. Otherwise, the function stores an empty sequence in val and sets ios_base::failbit in state. It returns an iterator designating the first element beyond any prefix of a valid monetary input field. In either case, if the return value equals last, the function sets ios_base::eofbit in state.

The second virtual protected member function behaves the same as the first, except that if successful it converts the optionally-signed digit sequence to a value of type long double and stores that value in val.

The format of a monetary input field is determined by the locale facet fac returned by the (effective) call use_facet <moneypunct<Elem, intl> >(iosbase. getloc()). Specifically:

• fac.neg_format() determines the order in which components of the field occur.
• fac.curr_symbol() determines the sequence of elements that constitutes a currency symbol.
• fac.positive_sign() determines the sequence of elements that constitutes a positive sign.
• fac.negative_sign() determines the sequence of elements that constitutes a negative sign.
• fac.grouping() determines how digits are grouped to the left of any decimal point.
• fac.thousands_sep() determines the element that separates groups of digits to the left of any decimal point.
• fac.decimal_point() determines the element that separates the integer digits from the fraction digits.
• fac.frac_digits() determines the number of significant fraction digits to the right of any decimal point.

If the sign string (fac.negative_sign or fac.positive_sign) has more than one element, only the first element is matched where the element equal to money_base::sign appears in the format pattern (fac.neg_format). Any remaining elements are matched at the end of the monetary input field. If neither string has a first element that matches the next element in the monetary input field, the sign string is taken as empty and the sign is positive.

If iosbase.flags() & showbase is nonzero, the string fac.curr_symbol must match where the element equal to money_base::symbol appears in the format pattern. Otherwise, if money_base::symbol occurs at the end of the format pattern, and if no elements of the sign string remain to be matched, the currency symbol is not matched. Otherwise, the currency symbol is optionally matched.

If no instances of fac.thousands_sep() occur in the value portion of the monetary input field (where the element equal to money_base::value appears in the format pattern), no grouping constraint is imposed. Otherwise, any grouping constraints imposed by fac.grouping() is enforced. Note that the resulting digit sequence represents an integer whose low-order fac.frac_digits() decimal digits are considered to the right of the decimal point.

Arbitrary white space is matched where the element equal to money_base::space appears in the format pattern, if it appears other than at the end of the format pattern. Otherwise, no internal white space is matched. An element ch is considered white space if use_facet <ctype<Elem> >(iosbase. getloc()). is(ctype_base:: space, ch) is true.

money_get::get

iter_type get(iter_type first, iter_type last,
    bool intl, ios_base& iosbase, ios_base::iostate& state,
        long double& val) const;
iter_type get(iter_type first, iter_type last,
    bool intl, ios_base& iosbase, ios_base::iostate& state,
        string_type& val) const;

Both member functions return do_get(first, last, intl, iosbase, state, val).

money_get::iter_type

typedef InIt iter_type;

The type is a synonym for the template parameter InIt.

money_get::money_get

explicit money_get(size_t refs = 0);

The constructor initializes its base object with locale::facet(refs).

money_get::string_type

typedef basic_string<Elem> string_type;

The type describes a specialization of template class basic_string whose objects can store sequences of elements from the source sequence.

money_put

template<class Elem,
    class OutIt = ostreambuf_iterator<Elem> >
    class money_put : public locale::facet {
public:
    typedef Elem char_type;
    typedef OutIt iter_type;
    typedef basic_string<Elem> string_type;
    explicit money_put(size_t refs = 0);
    iter_type put(iter_type next, bool intl, ios_base& iosbase,
        Elem fill, long double& val) const;
    iter_type put(iter_type next, bool intl, ios_base& iosbase,
        Elem fill, string_type& val) const;
    static locale::id id;
protected:
    ~money_put();
    virtual iter_type do_put(iter_type next, bool intl,
        ios_base& iosbase, Elem fill, string_type& val) const;
    virtual iter_type do_put(iter_type next, bool intl,
        ios_base& iosbase, Elem fill, long double& val) const;
    };

The template class describes an object that can serve as a locale facet, to control conversions of monetary values to sequences of type Elem.

As with any locale facet, the static object id has an initial stored value of zero. The first attempt to access its stored value stores a unique positive value in id.

money_put::char_type

typedef Elem char_type;

The type is a synonym for the template parameter Elem.

money_put::do_put

virtual iter_type do_put(iter_type next, bool intl,
    ios_base& iosbase, Elem fill, string_type& val) const;
virtual iter_type do_put(iter_type next, bool intl,
    ios_base& iosbase, Elem fill, long double& val) const;

The first virtual protected member function generates sequential elements beginning at next to produce a monetary output field from the string_type object val. The sequence controlled by val must begin with one or more decimal digits, optionally preceded by a minus sign (-), which represents the amount. The function returns an iterator designating the first element beyond the generated monetary output field.

The second virtual protected member function behaves the same as the first, except that it effectively first converts val to a sequence of decimal digits, optionally preceded by a minus sign, then converts that sequence as above.

The format of a monetary output field is determined by the locale facet fac returned by the (effective) call use_facet <moneypunct<Elem, intl> >(iosbase. getloc()). Specifically:

• fac.pos_format() determines the order in which components of the field are generated for a non-negative value.
• fac.neg_format() determines the order in which components of the field are generated for a negative value.
• fac.curr_symbol() determines the sequence of elements to generate for a currency symbol.
• fac.positive_sign() determines the sequence of elements to generate for a positive sign.
• fac.negative_sign() determines the sequence of elements to generate for a negative sign.
• fac.grouping() determines how digits are grouped to the left of any decimal point.
• fac.thousands_sep() determines the element that separates groups of digits to the left of any decimal point.
• fac.decimal_point() determines the element that separates the integer digits from any fraction digits.
• fac.frac_digits() determines the number of significant fraction digits to the right of any decimal point.

If the sign string (fac.negative_sign or fac.positive_sign) has more than one element, only the first element is generated where the element equal to money_base::sign appears in the format pattern (fac.neg_format or fac.pos_format). Any remaining elements are generated at the end of the monetary output field.

If iosbase.flags() & showbase is nonzero, the string fac.curr_symbol is generated where the element equal to money_base::symbol appears in the format pattern. Otherwise, no currency symbol is generated.

If no grouping constraints are imposed by fac.grouping() (its first element has the value CHAR_MAX) then no instances of fac.thousands_sep() are generated in the value portion of the monetary output field (where the element equal to money_base::value appears in the format pattern). If fac.frac_digits() is zero, then no instance of fac.decimal_point() is generated after the decimal digits. Otherwise, the resulting monetary output field places the low-order fac.frac_digits() decimal digits to the right of the decimal point.

Padding occurs as for any numeric output field, except that if iosbase.flags() & iosbase.internal is nonzero, any internal padding is generated where the element equal to money_base::space appears in the format pattern, if it does appear. Otherwise, internal padding occurs before the generated sequence. The padding character is fill.

The function calls iosbase.width(0) to reset the field width to zero.

    Elem fill, long double& val) const;
iter_type put(iter_type next, bool intl, ios_base& iosbase,

Both member functions return do_put(next, intl, iosbase, fill, val).

The template class describes an object that can serve as a locale facet, to desceibe the sequences of type Elem used to represent a monetary input field or a monetary output field. If the template parameter Intl is true, international conventions are observed.

As with any locale facet, the static object id has an initial stored value of zero. The first attempt to access its stored value stores a unique positive value in id.

The const static object intl stores the value of the template parameter Intl.

moneypunct::do_neg_format

pattern do_neg_format() const;

The protected virtual member function returns a locale-specific rule for determining how to generate a monetary output field for a neeative amount. Each of the four elements of pattern::field can have the values:

• none to match zero or more spaces or generate nothing
• sign to match or generate a positive or negative sign
• space to match zero or more spaces or generate a space
• symbol to match or generate a currency symbol
• value to match or generate a monetary value

Components of a monetary output field are generated (and components of a monetary input field are matched) in the order in which these elements appear in pattern::field. Each of the values sign, symbol, value, and either none or space must appear exactly once. The value none must not appear first. The value space must not appear first or last. If Intl is true, the order is symbol, sign, none, then value.

The template version of moneypunct<Elem, Intl> returns {money_base::symbol, money_base::sign, money_base::value, money_base::none}.

The template class describes an object that can serve as a locale facet, to control conversions of sequences of type Elem to numeric values.

As with any locale facet, the static object id has an initial stored value of zero. The first attempt to access its stored value stores a unique positive value in id.

num_get::char_type

typedef Elem char_type;

The type is a synonym for the template parameter Elem.

virtual iter_type do_get(iter_type first, iter_type last,
    ios_base& iosbase, ios_base::iostate& state,
        long& val) const;

        void *& val) const;
virtual iter_type do_get(iter_type first, iter_type last,
    ios_base& iosbase, ios_base::iostate& state,
        bool& val) const;

The first virtual protected member function endeavors to match sequential elements beginning at first in the sequence [first, last) until it has recognized a complete, nonempty integer input field. If successful, it converts this field to its equivalent value as type long, and stores the result in val. It returns an iterator designating the first element beyond the numeric input field. Otherwise, the function stores nothing in val and sets ios_base::failbit in state. It returns an iterator designating the first element beyond any prefix of a valid integer input field. In either case, if the return value equals last, the function sets ios_base::eofbit in state.

The integer input field is converted by the same rules used by the scan functions for matching and converting a series of char elements from a file. (Each such char element is assumed to map to an equivalent element of type Elem by a simple, one-to-one, mapping.) The equivalent scan conversion specification is determined as follows:

• If iosbase.flags() & ios_base::basefield == ios_base::oct, the conversion specification is lo.
• If iosbase.flags() & ios_base::basefield == ios_base::hex, the conversion specification is lx.
• If iosbase.flags() & ios_base::basefield == 0, the conversion specification is li.
• Otherwise, the conversion specification is ld.

The format of an integer input field is further determined by the locale facet fac returned by the call use_facet <numpunct<Elem>(iosbase. getloc()). Specifically:

• fac.grouping() determines how digits are grouped to the left of any decimal point
• fac.thousands_sep() determines the sequence that separates groups of digits to the left of any decimal point

If no instances of fac.thousands_sep() occur in the numeric input field, no grouping constraint is imposed. Otherwise, any grouping constraints imposed by fac.grouping() is enforced and separators are removed before the scan conversion occurs.

The second virtual protected member function:

virtual iter_type do_get(iter_type first, iter_type last,
    ios_base& iosbase, ios_base::iostate& state,
        unsigned long& val) const;

behaves the same as the first, except that it replaces a conversion specification of ld with lu. If successful it converts the numeric input field to a value of type unsigned long and stores that value in val.

The third virtual protected member function:

virtual iter_type do_get(iter_type first, iter_type last,
    ios_base& iosbase, ios_base::iostate& state,
        double& val) const;

behaves the same as the first, except that it endeavors to match a complete, nonempty floating-point input field. fac.decimal_point() determines the sequence that separates the integer digits from the fraction digits. The equivalent scan conversion specifier is lf.

The fourth virtual protected member function:

virtual iter_type do_get(iter_type first, iter_type last,
    ios_base& iosbase, ios_base::iostate& state,
        long double& val) const;

behaves the same the third, except that the equivalent scan conversion specifier is Lf.

The fifth virtual protected member function:

virtual iter_type do_get(iter_type first, iter_type last,
    ios_base& iosbase, ios_base::iostate& state,
        void *& val) const;

behaves the same the first, except that the equivalent scan conversion specifier is p.

The sixth virtual protected member function:

virtual iter_type do_get(iter_type first, iter_type last,
    ios_base& iosbase, ios_base::iostate& state,
        bool& val) const;

behaves the same as the first, except that it endeavors to match a complete, nonempty boolean input field. If successful it converts the boolean input field to a value of type bool and stores that value in val.

A boolean input field takes one of two forms. If iosbase.flags() & ios_base::boolalpha is false, it is the same as an integer input field, except that the converted value must be either 0 (for false) or 1 (for true). Otherwise, the sequence must match either fac.falsename() (for false), or fac.truename() (for true).

num_get::get

iter_type get(iter_type first, iter_type last,

iter_type get(iter_type first, iter_type last,
    ios_base& iosbase, ios_base::iostate& state,
        bool& val) const;

All member functions return do_get(first, last, iosbase, state, val).

    virtual iter_type do_put(iter_type next, ios_base& iosbase,

    virtual iter_type do_put(iter_type next, ios_base& iosbase,
        Elem fill, bool val) const;
    };

The template class describes an object that can serve as a locale facet, to control conversions of numeric values to sequences of type Elem.

As with any locale facet, the static object id has an initial stored value of zero. The first attempt to access its stored value stores a unique positive value in id.

num_put::char_type

typedef Elem char_type;

The type is a synonym for the template parameter Elem.

num_put::do_put

virtual iter_type do_put(iter_type next, ios_base& iosbase,
    Elem fill, long val) const;
virtual iter_type do_put(iter_type next, ios_base& iosbase,
    Elem fill, unsigned long val) const;
virtual iter_type do_put(iter_type next, ios_base& iosbase,
    Elem fill, double val) const;
virtual iter_type do_put(iter_type nextp ios_base& iosbase,
    Elem fill, long double val) const;
virtual iter_type do_put(iter_type nextp ios_base& iosbase,
    Elem fill, const void *val) const;
virtual iter_type do_put(iter_type next, ios_base& iosbase,
    Elem fill, bool val) const;

The first virtual protected member function generates sequential elements beginning at next to produce an integer output field from the value of val. The function returns an iterator designating the next place to insert an element beyond the generated integer output field.

The integer output field is generated by the same rules used by the print functions for generating a series of char elements to a file. (Each such char element is assumed to map to an equivalent element of type Elem by a simple, one-to-one, mapping.) Where a print function pads a field with either spaces or the digit 0, however, do_put instead uses fill. The equivalent print conversion specification is determined as follows:

• If iosbase.flags() & ios_base::basefield == ios_base::oct, the conversion specification is lo.
• If iosbase.flags() & ios_base::basefield == ios_base::hex, the conversion specification is lx.
• Otherwise, the conversion specification is ld.

If iosbase.width() is nonzero, a field width of this value is prepended. The function then calls iosbase.width(0) to reset the field width to zero.

Padding occurs only if the minimum number of elements N required to specify the output field is less than iosbase.width(). Such padding consists of a sequence of N - width() copies of fill. Padding then occurs as follows:

• If iosbase.flags() & ios_base::adjustfield == ios_base::left, the flag - is prepended. (Padding occurs after the generated text.)
• If iosbase.flags() & ios_base::adjustfield == ios_base::internal, the flag 0 is prepended. (For a numeric output field, padding occurs where the print functions pad with 0.)
• Otherwise, no additional flag is prepended. (Padding occurs before the generated sequence.)

Finally:

• If iosbase.flags() & ios_base::showpos is nonzero, the flag + is prepended to the conversion specification.
• If iosbase.flags() & ios_base::showbase is nonzero, the flag # is prepended to the conversion specification.

The format of an integer output field is further determined by the locale facet fac returned by the call use_facet <numpunct<Elem>(iosbase. getloc()). Specifically:

• fac.grouping() determines how digits are grouped to the left of any decimal point
• fac.thousands_sep() determines the sequence that separates groups of digits to the left of any decimal point

If no grouping constraints are imposed by fac.grouping() (its first element has the value CHAR_MAX) then no instances of fac.thousands_sep() are generated in the output field. Otherwise, separators are inserted after the print conversion occurs.

The second virtual protected member function:

virtual iter_type do_put(iter_type next, ios_base& iosbase,
    Elem fill, unsigned long val) const;

behaves the same as the first, except that it replaces a conversion specification of ld with lu.

The third virtual protected member function:

virtual iter_type do_put(iter_type next, ios_base& iosbase,
    Elem fill, double val) const;

behaves the same as the first, except that it produces a floating-point output field from the value of val. fac.decimal_point() determines the sequence that separates the integer digits from the fraction digits. The equivalent print conversion specification is determined as follows:

• If (iosbase.flags() & ios_base::floatfield) == ios_base::fixed, the conversion specification is lf.
• If (iosbase.flags() & ios_base::floatfield) == ios_base::scientific, the conversion specification is le. If iosbase.flags() & ios_base::uppercase is nonzero, e is replaced with E.
• Otherwise, the conversion specification is lg. If iosbase.flags() & ios_base::uppercase is nonzero, g is replaced with G.

If (iosbase.flags() & ios_base::floatfield) == ios_base::fixed, or if iosbase.precision() is greater than zero, a precision with the value iosbase.precision() is prepended to the conversion specification. Any padding behaves the same as for an integer output field. The padding character is fill. Finally:

• If iosbase.flags() & ios_base::showpos is nonzero, the flag + is prepended to the conversion specification.
• If iosbase.flags() & ios_base::showpoint is nonzero, the flag # is prepended to the conversion specification.

The fourth virtual protected member function:

virtual iter_type do_put(iter_type next, ios_base& iosbase,
    Elem fill, long double val) const;

behaves the same the third, except that the qualifier l in the conversion specification is replaced with L.

The fifth virtual protected member function:

virtual iter_type do_put(iter_type next, ios_base& iosbase,
    Elem fill, const void *val) const;

behaves the same the first, except that the conversion specification is p, plus any qualifier needed to specify padding.

The sixth virtual protected member function:

virtual iter_type do_put(iter_type next, ios_base& iosbase,
    Elem fill, bool val) const;

behaves the same as the first, except that it generates a boolean output field from val.

A boolean output field takes one of two forms. If iosbase.flags() & ios_base::boolalpha is false, the member function returns do_put(next, iosbase, fill, (long)val), which typically produces a generated sequence of either 0 (for false) or 1 (for true). Otherwise, the generated sequence is either fac.falsename() (for false), or fac.truename() (for true).

time_get

template<class Elem, class InIt = istreambuf_iterator<Elem> >
    class time_get : public locale::facet, time_base {
public:
    typedef Elem char_type;
    typedef InIt iter_type;
    explicit time_get(size_t refs = 0);

        do_get_year(iter_type first, iter_type last,
        ios_base& iosbase, ios_base::iostate& state, tm *pt) const;
    };

The template class describes an object that can serve as a locale facet, to control conversions of sequences of type Elem to time values.

As with any locale facet, the static object id has an initial stored value of zero. The first attempt to access its stored value stores a unique positive value in id.

time_get::char_type

typedef Elem char_type;

The type is a synonym for the template parameter Elem.

time_get::date_order

dateorder date_order() const;

The member function returns date_order().

time_get::do_date_order

virtual dateorder do_date_order() const;

The virtual protected member function returns a value of type time_base::dateorder, which describes the order in which date components are matched by do_get_date.

time_get::do_get_date

virtual iter_type
    do_get_date(iter_type first, iter_type last,
    ios_base& iosbase, ios_base::iostate& state, tm *pt) const;

The virtual protected member function endeavors to match sequential elements beginning at first in the sequence [first, last) until it has recognized a complete, nonempty date input field. If successful, it converts this field to its equivalent value as the components tm::tm_mon, tm::tm_day, and tm::tm_year, and stores the results in pt->tm_mon, pt->tm_day and pt->tm_year, respectively. It returns an iterator designating the first element beyond the date input field. Otherwise, the function sets ios_base::failbit in state. It returns an iterator designating the first element beyond any prefix of a valid date input field. In either case, if the return value equals last, the function sets ios_base::eofbit in state.

In this implementation, the date input field is assumed to have three fields:

• a month, which is either a sequence of decimal digits whose corresponding numeric value must be in the range [1, 12], giving the month plus one, or the sequence matched by get_month, giving the month
• a day, which is a sequence of decimal digits whose corresponding numeric value must be in the range [1, 31], giving the day of the month
• a year, which is the sequence matched by get_year, giving the year

The fields are separated by optional spaces, followed by an optional colon, comma, or slash, followed by optional spaces. The order of the fields is as specified by time_get::date_order(), except that the value no_order is taken as mdy and any sequence matched by get_month is always taken as a month.

time_get::do_get_month

virtual iter_type
    do_get_month(iter_type first, iter_type last,
    ios_base& iosbase, ios_base::iostate& state, tm *pt) const;

The virtual protected member function endeavors to match sequential elements beginning at first in the sequence [first, last) until it has recognized a complete, nonempty month input field. If successful, it converts this field to its equivalent value as the component tm::tm_mon, and stores the result in pt->tm_mon. It returns an iterator designating the first element beyond the month input field. Otherwise, the function sets ios_base::failbit in state. It returns an iterator designating the first element beyond any prefix of a valid month input field. In either case, if the return value equals last, the function sets ios_base::eofbit in state.

The month input field is a sequence that matches the longest of a set of locale-specific sequences, such as: Jan, January, Feb, February, etc. The converted value is the number of months since January.

time_get::do_get_time

virtual iter_type
    do_get_time(iter_type first, iter_type last,
    ios_base& iosbase, ios_base::iostate& state, tm *pt) const;

The virtual protected member function endeavors to match sequential elements beginning at first in the sequence [first, last) until it has recognized a complete, nonempty time input field. If successful, it converts this field to its equivalent value as the components tm::tm_hour, tm::tm_min, and tm::tm_sec, and stores the results in pt->tm_hour, pt->tm_min and pt->tm_sec, respectively. It returns an iterator designating the first element beyond the time input field. Otherwise, the function sets ios_base::failbit in state. It returns an iterator designating the first element beyond any prefix of a valid time input field. In either case, if the return value equals last, the function sets ios_base::eofbit in state.

In this implementation, the time input field has the form HH:MM:SS, where:

• HH is a sequence of decimal digits whose corresponding numeric value must be in the range [0, 24), giving the hour of the day.
• MM is a sequence of decimal digits whose corresponding numeric value must be in the range [0, 60), giving the minutes past the hour.
• SS is a sequence of decimal digits whose corresponding numeric value must be in the range [0, 60), giving the seconds past the minute.
• The literal colons must match corresponding elements in the input sequence.

time_get::do_get_weekday

virtual iter_type
    do_get_weekday(iter_type first, iter_type last,
    ios_base& iosbase, ios_base::iostate& state, tm *pt) const;

The virtual protected member function endeavors to match sequential elements beginning at first in the sequence [first, last) until it has recognized a complete, nonempty weekday input field. If successful, it converts this field to its equivalent value as the component tm::tm_wday, and stores the result in pt->tm_wday. It returns an iterator designating the first element beyond the weekday input field. Otherwise, the function sets ios_base::failbit in state. It returns an iterator designating the first element beyond any prefix of a valid weekday input field. In either case, if the return value equals last, the function sets ios_base::eofbit in state.

The weekday input field is a sequence that matches the longest of a set of locale-specific sequences, such as: Sun, Sunday, Mon, Monday, etc. The converted value is the number of days since Sunday.

time_get::do_get_year

virtual iter_type
    do_get_year(iter_type first, iter_type last,
    ios_base& iosbase, ios_base::iostate& state, tm *pt) const;

The virtual protected member function endeavors to match sequential elements beginning at first in the sequence [first, last) until it has recognized a complete, nonempty year input field. If successful, it converts this field to its equivalent value as the component tm::tm_year, and stores the result in pt->tm_year. It returns an iterator designating the first element beyond the year input field. Otherwise, the function sets ios_base::failbit in state. It returns an iterator designating the first element beyond any prefix of a valid year input field. In either case, if the return value equals last, the function sets ios_base::eofbit in state.

The year input field is a sequence of decimal digits whose corresponding numeric value must be in the range [1900, 2036). The stored value is this value minus 1900. In this implementation, values in the range [69, 136) represent the range of years [1969, 2036). Values in the range [0, 69) are also permissible, but may represent either the range of years [1900, 1969) or [2000, 2069), depending on the specific translation environment.

time_get::get_date

iter_type get_date(iter_type first, iter_type last,

typedef InIt iter_type;

The type is a synonym for the template parameter InIt.

time_get::time_get

explicit time_get(size_t refs = 0);

The constructor initializes its base object with locale::facet(refs).

time_get_byname

template<class Elem, class InIt>
    class time_get_byname : public time_get<Elem, InIt> {
public:
    explicit time_get_byname(const char *locname,
        size_t refs = 0);
protected:
    ~time_get_byname();
    };

The template class describes an object that can serve as a locale facet of type time_get<Elem, InIt>. Its behavior is determined by the named locale locname. The constructor initializes its base object with time_get<Elem, InIt>(refs).

time_put

template<class Elem, class OutIt = ostreambuf_iterator<Elem> >
    class time_put : public locale::facet {
public:
    typedef Elem char_type;
    typedef OutIt iter_type;
    explicit time_put(size_t refs = 0);
    iter_type put(iter_type next, ios_base& iosbase,
        char_type fill, const tm *pt, char fmt, char mod = 0) const;
    iter_type put(iter_type next, ios_base& iosbase,
        char_type fill, const tm *pt, const Elem *first, const Elem *last) const;
    static locale::id id;
protected:
    ~time_put();
    virtual iter_type do_put(iter_type next, ios_base& iosbase,
        char_type fill, const tm *pt, char fmt, char mod = 0) const;
    };

The template class describes an object that can serve as a locale facet, to control conversions of time values to sequences of type Elem.

As with any locale facet, the static object id has an initial stored value of zero. The first attempt to access its stored value stores a unique positive value in id.

time_put::char_type

typedef Elem char_type;

The type is a synonym for the template parameter Elem.

time_put::do_put

virtual iter_type do_put(iter_type next, ios_base& iosbase,
    char_type fill, const tm *pt, char fmt, char mod = 0) const;

The virtual protected member function generates sequential elements beginning at next from time values stored in the object *pt, of type tm. The function returns an iterator designating the next place to insert an element beyond the generated output.

The output is generated by the same rules used by strftime, with a last argument of pt, for generating a series of char elements into an array. (Each such char element is assumed to map to an equivalent element of type Elem by a simple, one-to-one, mapping.) If mod equals zero, the effective format is "%F", where F is replaced by fmt. Otherwise, the effective format is "%MF", where M is replaced by mod.

The parameter fill is not used.

time_put::put

iter_type put(iter_type next, ios_base& iosbase,
    char_type fill, const tm *pt, char fmt, char mod = 0) const;
iter_type put(iter_type next, ios_base& iosbase,
    char_type fill, const tm *pt, const Elem *first, const Elem *last) const;

The first member function returns do_put(next, iosbase, fill, pt, fmt, mod). The second member function copies to *next++ any element in the interval [first, last) other than a percent (%). For a percent followed by a character C in the interval [first, last), the function instead evaluates next = do_put(next, iosbase, fill, pt, C, 0) and skips past C. If, however, C is a qualifier character from the set EOQ#, followed by a character C2 in the interval [first, last), the function instead evaluates next = do_put(next, iosbase, fill, pt, C2, C) and skips past C2.

time_put::iter_type

typedef InIt iter_type;

The type is a synonym for the template parameter OutIt.

time_put::time_put

public:
    explicit time_put_byname(const char *locname,
        size_t refs = 0);
protected:
    ~time_put_byname();
    };

The template class describes an object that can serve as a locale facet of type time_put<Elem, OutIt>. Its behavior is determined by the named locale locname. The constructor initializes its base object with time_put<Elem, OutIt>(refs).

tolower

template<class Elem>
    Elem tolower(Elem ch, const locale& loc) const;

The template function returns use_facet< ctype<Elem> >(loc). tolower(ch).

toupper

template<class Elem>
    Elem toupper(Elem ch, const locale& loc) const;

use_facet

template<class Facet>
    const Facet& use_facet(const locale& loc);
