std::experimental::basic_string_view::operator[](3) C++ Standard Libary std::experimental::basic_string_view::operator[](3)

NAME

std::experimental::basic_string_view::operator[] - std::experimental::basic_string_view::operator[]

Synopsis


constexpr const_reference operator[](size_type pos) (library fundamentals TS)
const;


Returns a const reference to the character at specified location pos.


No bounds checking is performed: the behavior is undefined if pos >= size().

Parameters


pos - position of the character to return

Return value


Const reference to the requested character

Exceptions


Does not throw

Complexity


Constant.

Notes


Unlike std::basic_string::operator[], basic_string_view::operator[](size()) has
undefined behavior instead of returning CharT().

Example

// Run this code


#include <iostream>
#include <experimental/string_view>
int main()
{
std::string str = "Exemplar";
std::experimental::string_view v = str;
std::cout << v[2] << '\n';
// v[2] = 'y'; // Error: cannot modify through a string view
str[2] = 'y';
std::cout << v[2] << '\n';
}

Output:


e
y
