NAME¶

std::time_put_byname - std::time_put_byname

Synopsis¶

Defined in header <locale>
template< class CharT, class OutputIterator = std::ostreambuf_iterator<CharT> >
class time_put_byname : public std::time_put<CharT, OutputIterator>;

std::time_put_byname is a std::time_put facet which encapsulates time and date
formatting rules of the locale specified at its construction.

Two specializations are provided by the standard library

Defined in header <locale>
std::time_put_byname<char, OutputIterator> narrow/multibyte time formatting
std::time_put_byname<wchar_t, OutputIterator> wide string time formatting

Member types¶

char_type CharT
iter_type OutputIterator

Member functions¶

constructor constructs a new time_put_byname facet
(public member function)
destructor destroys a time_put_byname facet
(protected member function)

std::time_put_byname::time_put_byname

explicit time_put_byname( const char* name, std::size_t refs = 0 );
explicit time_put_byname( const std::string& name, std::size_t refs = (since C++11)
0 );

Constructs a new std::time_put_byname facet for a locale with name.

refs is used for resource management: if refs == 0, the implementation destroys the
facet, when the last std::locale object holding it is destroyed. Otherwise, the
object is not destroyed.

Parameters¶

name - the name of the locale
refs - the number of references that link to the facet

std::time_put_byname::~time_put_byname

protected:
~time_put_byname();

Destroys the facet.

Inherited from std::time_put

Member objects¶

Member name Type
id (static) std::locale::id

Member functions¶

put invokes do_put
(public member function of std::time_put<CharT,OutputIt>)

Protected member functions¶

do_put formats date/time and writes to output stream
[virtual] (virtual protected member function of std::time_put<CharT,OutputIt>)

Example¶

This example prints current time using the "C" locale with the time_put facet
replaced by various std::time_put_byname facets

// Run this code

#include <iostream>
#include <ctime>
#include <iomanip>
#include <codecvt>

int main()
{
std::time_t t = std::time(nullptr);
std::wbuffer_convert<std::codecvt_utf8<wchar_t>> conv(std::cout.rdbuf());
std::wostream out(&conv);

out.imbue(std::locale(out.getloc(),
new std::time_put_byname<wchar_t>("ja_JP")));
out << std::put_time(std::localtime(&t), L"%A %c") << '\n';

out.imbue(std::locale(out.getloc(),
new std::time_put_byname<wchar_t>("ru_RU.utf8")));
out << std::put_time(std::localtime(&t), L"%A %c") << '\n';

out.imbue(std::locale(out.getloc(),
new std::time_put_byname<wchar_t>("sv_SE.utf8")));
out << std::put_time(std::localtime(&t), L"%A %c") << '\n';
}
