std::basic_filebuf::operator=(3) C++ Standard Libary std::basic_filebuf::operator=(3)

NAME

std::basic_filebuf::operator= - std::basic_filebuf::operator=

Synopsis


std::basic_filebuf& operator=( std::basic_filebuf&& rhs ); (1) (since C++11)
std::basic_filebuf& operator=( const std::basic_filebuf& rhs ) = (2)
delete;


Assigns another basic_filebuf object.


1) First calls close() to close the associated file, then moves the contents of rhs
into *this: the put and get buffers, the associated file, the locale, the openmode,
the is_open flag, and any other state. After the move, rhs is not associated with a
file and rhs.is_open() == false.
2) The copy assignment operator is deleted; basic_filebuf is not CopyAssignable.

Parameters


rhs - another basic_filebuf that will be moved from

Return value


*this

Example

// Run this code


#include <cassert>
#include <fstream>
#include <iostream>
#include <string>


int main()
{
std::ofstream{"test.in"} << "test\n"; // writes via a temporary object
std::ifstream fin("test.in"); // read-only stream
std::ofstream fout("test.out"); // write-only stream


std::string s;
std::getline(fin, s);
std::cout << "s = [" << s << "]\n"; // s contains "test"


assert(fout.is_open());
*fin.rdbuf() = std::move(*fout.rdbuf());
assert(!fout.is_open());


std::getline(fin, s);
std::cout << "s = [" << s << "]\n"; // s is empty input
}

Output:


s = [test]
s = []
