NAME

 
num_get
 
 - A numeric formatting facet for input.
 
 
 

SYNOPSIS

 
 

#include <locale>
template <class charT, class InputIterator > class num_get;
 
 
 

DESCRIPTION

 
 
The num_get facet allows for formatted input of numbers. basic_istream_and all other input-oriented streams use this facet to implement formatted numeric input.
 
 
 

INTERFACE

 
 
 
template <class charT, class InputIterator =

istreambuf_iterator<charT> >

class num_get : public locale::facet {
public:

typedef charT            char_type;
typedef InputIterator    iter_type;
explicit num_get(size_t refs = 0);
iter_type get(iter_type, iter_type, ios_base&,

ios_base::iostate&, bool&)          const;

TYPES

 
 
 
char_type

 
 
Type of character the facet is instantiated on.
 

 
 
iter_type

 
 
Type of iterator used to scan the character buffer.
 

 
 
 

CONSTRUCTORS

 
 
 
explicit num_get(size_t refs = 0)

 
 
Construct a num_get facet. If the refs argument is 0, then destruction of the object is delegated to the locale, or locales, containing it. This allows the user to ignore lifetime management issues. On the other hand, if refs is 1, then the object must be explicitly deleted; the locale does not do so. In this case, the object can be maintained across the lifetime of multiple locales. 
 

 
 
 

DESTRUCTORS

 
 
 
~num_get();  // virtual and protected

 
 
Destroys the facet.
 

 
 
 

FACET ID

 
 
 
static locale::id id;

 
 
Unique identifier for this type of facet.
 

 
 
 

PUBLIC MEMBER FUNCTIONS

 
 
The public members of the num_get facet include an interface to protected members. Each public member xxx has a corresponding virtual protected member do_xxx. All work is delegated to these protected members. For instance, the long version of the public get function simply calls its protected cousin do_get. 
 
 
iter_type
get(iter_type in, iter_type end, ios_base& io,

ios_base::iostate& err, bool& v)          const;

iter_type
get(iter_type in, iter_type end, ios_base& io,

ios_base::iostate& err, long& v)          const;

iter_type
get(iter_type in, iter_type end, ios_base& io,

ios_base::iostate& err, unsigned short& v) const;

iter_type
get(iter_type in, iter_type end, ios_base& io,

ios_base::iostate& err, unsigned int& v)  const;

iter_type
get(iter_type in, iter_type end, ios_base& io,

ios_base::iostate& err, unsigned long& v) const;

iter_type
get(iter_type in, iter_type end, ios_base& io,

ios_base::iostate& err, float& v) const;

iter_type
get(iter_type in, iter_type end, ios_base& io,

ios_base::iostate& err, double& v) const;

iter_type
get(iter_type in, iter_type end, ios_base& io,

ios_base::iostate& err, long double& v) const;

 
 
Each of the eight overloads of the get function simply call the corresponding do_get function. 
 

 
 
 

PROTECTED MEMBER FUNCTIONS

 
 
 

virtual iter_type
do_get(iter_type in, iter_type end, ios_base& io,

ios_base::iostate& err, bool& v) const;

virtual iter_type
do_get(iter_type in, iter_type end, ios_base& io,

ios_base::iostate& err, long& v) const;

virtual iter_type
do_get(iter_type in, iter_type end, ios_base& io,

ios_base::iostate& err,
unsigned short& v) const;

virtual iter_type
do_get(iter_type in, iter_type end, ios_base& io,

ios_base::iostate& err,
unsigned int& v) const;

virtual iter_type
do_get(iter_type in, iter_type end, ios_base& io,

ios_base::iostate& err,
unsigned long& v) const;

virtual iter_type
do_get(iter_type in, iter_type end, ios_base& io,

ios_base::iostate& err, float& v) const;

virtual iter_type
do_get(iter_type in, iter_type end, ios_base& io,

ios_base::iostate& err, double& v) const;

virtual iter_type
do_get(iter_type in, iter_type end, ios_base& io,

ios_base::iostate& long double& v) const;

 
 
The eight overloads of the do_get member function all take a sequence of characters [int,end), and extract a numeric value. The numeric value is returned in v.   The io argument is used to obtain formatting information and the err argument is used to set error conditions in a calling stream. 
 

 
 
 

EXAMPLE

 
 
 

//
// numget.cpp
//
 
#include <sstream>
 
int main ()
{

using namespace std;

 
typedef istreambuf_iterator<char,char_traits<char> >

iter_type;

 

locale loc;
ios_base::iostate state;
bool bval = false;
long lval = 0L;
long double ldval = 0.0;
iter_type end;

 

// Get a num_get facet

const num_get<char,iter_type>& tg =

#ifndef _RWSTD_NO_TEMPLATE_ON_RETURN_TYPE

use_facet<num_get<char,iter_type> >(loc);

#else

use_facet(loc,(num_get<char,iter_type>∗)0);

#endif
 

{

// Build an istringstream from the buffer and construct
// beginning and ending iterators on it.

istringstream ins("true");
iter_type begin(ins);

 

// Get a bool value

tg.get(begin,end,ins,state,bval);

}

cout << bval << endl;

{

// Get a long value

istringstream ins("2422235");
iter_type begin(ins);
tg.get(begin,end,ins,state,lval);

}

cout << lval << endl;

{

// Get a long double value

istringstream ins("32324342.98908");
iter_type begin(ins);
tg.get(begin,end,ins,state,ldval);

}

cout << ldval << endl;
return 0;

}
