std::ostrstream::str
From cppreference.com
< cpp | io | ostrstream
| char* str();
|
||
Returns the pointer to the beginning of the buffer, after freezing it. Effectively calls rdbuf()->str()
Contents |
Notes
After a call to str(), dynamic streams become frozen. A call to freeze(false) is required before exiting the scope in which this ostrstream object was created. otherwise the destructor will leak memory. Also, additional output to a frozen stream may be truncated once it reaches the end of the allocated buffer.
[edit] Parameters
(none)
[edit] Return value
Pointer to the beginning of the buffer in the associated std::strsteambuf or NULL if no buffer is available.
[edit] Example
Run this code
#include <strstream> #include <iostream> int main() { std::ostrstream dyn; // dynamically-allocated output buffer dyn << "Test: " << 1.23; std::cout << "The output stream holds \"" << dyn.str() << "\"\n"; dyn << "Test: " << 1.23; std::cout << "The output stream holds \"" << dyn.str() << "\"\n"; // the stream is now frozen due to str() dyn << " More text"; std::cout << "The output stream holds \"" << dyn.str() << "\"\n"; dyn.freeze(false); }
Possible output:
The stream holds "Test: 1.23" The stream holds "Test: 1.23 More "
