NAME¶

std::basic_string_view::end,std::basic_string_view::cend - std::basic_string_view::end,std::basic_string_view::cend

Synopsis¶

constexpr const_iterator end() const noexcept; (since C++17)
constexpr const_iterator cend() const noexcept; (since C++17)

Returns an iterator to the character following the last character of the view. This
character acts as a placeholder, attempting to access it results in undefined

Example¶

// Run this code

#include <iostream>
#include <iterator>
#include <string_view>

int main()
{
std::string_view str_view("abcd");

auto end = str_view.end();
auto cend = str_view.cend();

std::cout << *std::prev(end) << '\n';
std::cout << *std::prev(cend) << '\n';

std::cout << std::boolalpha << (end == cend) << '\n';
}

Output:¶

d

true
