NAME

 
basic_iostream
 
 - Assists in formatting and interpreting sequences of characters controlled by a stream buffer.
 
 
 

SYNOPSIS

 
 
#include <istream>
template<class charT, class traits = char_traits<charT> >
class basic_iostream
: public basic_istream<charT, traits>,
public basic_ostream<charT, traits>
 
 
 

DESCRIPTION

 
 
The class basic_iostream inherits a number of functions from classes basic_ostream<charT,_traits> and basic_istream<charT,_traits>. They assist in formatting and interpreting sequences of characters controlled by a stream buffer. Two groups of functions share common properties, the formatted functions and the unformatted functions.
 
 
 

INTERFACE

 
 
 
template<class charT, class traits>
class basic_iostream
: public basic_istream<charT, traits>,

public basic_ostream<charT, traits>

 
{
 
public:
 

explicit basic_iostream(basic_streambuf<charT, traits>

∗sb);

virtual ~basic_iostream();

};
 
 
 

PUBLIC CONSTRUCTORS

 
 
 
explicit basic_iostream(basic_streambuf<charT, traits>

∗sb);

 
 
Constructs an object of class basic_iostream, assigning initial values to the base class by calling basic_istream<charT, traits>(sb) and basic_ostream<charT, traits>(sb). 
 

DESTRUCTORS

virtual ~basic_iostream();

 
 
Destroys an object of class basic_iostream.
