NAME

std::time_put::put,std::time_put::do_put - std::time_put::put,std::time_put::do_put

Synopsis


Defined in header <locale>
public:


iter_type put( iter_type out, std::ios_base& str, (1)
char_type fill, const std::tm* t,


const CharT* fmtbeg, const CharT* fmtend ) const;
public:


iter_type put( iter_type out, std::ios_base& str, (2)
char_type fill, const std::tm* t,


char format, char modifier = 0 ) const;
protected:


virtual iter_type do_put( iter_type out, std::ios_base& str, (3)
char_type fill, const std::tm* t,


char format, char modifier ) const;


Converts the calendar date and time stored in the std::tm object pointed to by t
into a character string, according to the format string [fmtbeg, fmtend). The format
string is the same as used by std::strftime, but each format specifier is processed
by an individual call to do_put(), which can be customized by extending this facet.


1) Steps through the character sequence [fmtbeg, fmtend), examining the characters.
Every character that is not a part of a format sequence is written to the output
iterator out immediately. To identify format sequences, this function narrows the
next character c in [fmtbeg, fmtend) as if by
std::ctype<char_type>(str.getloc()).narrow(c, 0) and if it equals '%', the next one
or two characters are compared to the list of format sequences recognized by
std::strftime plus any additional implementation-defined formats supported by this
locale. For each valid format sequence, a call to do_put(out, str, fill, t, format,
modifier) is made, where format is the format sequence character, and modifier is
the optional format sequence modifier ('E' or 'O'). A value of '\0' is used if the
modifier is absent.
2) Calls the do_put member function of the most derived class.
3) Converts the calendar date and time stored in the std::tm object pointed to by t
into a character string, according to the format conversion sequence formed by
concatenating '%', the value of modifier if not '\0', and the value of format. The
format is interpreted the same way as the function std::strftime, except that the
formats that are described as locale-dependent are defined by this locale, and
additional format specifiers may be supported (the fill argument is provided for
these implementation-defined format specifiers to use). The string is written to the
output iterator out.

Parameters


out - output iterator where the result of the conversion is written
str - a stream object that this function uses to obtain locale facets when
needed, e.g. std::ctype to narrow characters
t - pointer to the std::tm object from which the date/time values are
obtained
fmtbeg - pointer to the first character of a sequence of char_type characters
specifying the conversion format
fmtend - pointer one past the last character of a sequence of char_type characters
specifying the conversion format
fill - fill character (usually space)
format - the character that names a conversion specifier
modifier - the optional modifier that may appear between % and the conversion
specifier


Format string


The format string consists of zero or more conversion specifiers and ordinary
characters (except %). All ordinary characters, including the terminating null
character, are copied to the output string without modification. Each conversion
specification begins with % character, optionally followed by E or O modifier
(ignored if unsupported by the locale), followed by the character that determines
the behavior of the specifier. The following format specifiers are available:

Notes


No error handling is provided.


The fill character is provided for those implementation-defined format specifiers
and for the user-defined overrides of do_put() that use padding and filling logic.
Such implementations typically make use of the formatting flags from str.

Example

// Run this code


#include <iostream>
#include <sstream>
#include <iomanip>
#include <ctime>


void try_time_put(const std::tm* t, const std::string& fmt)
{
std::cout.imbue(std::locale());
std::cout << "In the locale '" << std::cout.getloc().name() << "' : '";


std::use_facet<std::time_put<char>>(std::cout.getloc()).put(
{std::cout}, std::cout, ' ', t, &fmt[0], &fmt[0] + fmt.size());


std::cout << "'\n";
}


int main()
{
std::time_t t = std::time(NULL);
std::tm tm = *std::localtime(&t);


std::string fmt = "%c";
std::cout << "Using the format string '" << fmt
<< "' to format the time: " << std::ctime(&t) << '\n';


std::locale::global(std::locale("de_DE.utf8"));
try_time_put(&tm, fmt);


std::locale::global(std::locale("el_GR.utf8"));
try_time_put(&tm, fmt);


std::locale::global(std::locale("ja_JP.utf8"));
try_time_put(&tm, fmt);
}

Possible output:


Using the format string '%c' to format the time: Mon Feb 11 22:58:50 2013


In the locale 'de_DE.utf8' : 'Mo 11 Feb 2013 23:02:38 EST'
In the locale 'el_GR.utf8' : 'Δευ 11 Φεβ 2013 11:02:38 μμ EST'
In the locale 'ja_JP.utf8' : '2013年02月11日 23時02分38秒'
