Constructs new string stream.


Given


* base_type as std::basic_ostream<CharT, Traits>, and
* buf_type as std::basic_stringbuf<CharT, Traits, Allocator>,


the std::basic_ostream base and the exposition-only data member sb are initialized
as follows.


Over std::basic_ostream base sb

(1) buf_type(mode | std::ios_base::out)
(2) buf_type(std::ios_base::out)
(3) buf_type(str, mode |

std::basic_ostream base


1. ↑ The std::basic_iostream base was intialized with base_type(&sb) (for overloads
(1,3)) until C++11.
8) This overload participates in overload resolution only if std::is_same_v<SAlloc,
Allocator> is false.
9-11) These overloads participate in overload resolution only if
std::is_convertible_v<const StringViewLike&, std::basic_string_view<CharT, Traits>>
is true.

Parameters


str - string to use as initial contents of the string stream
t - an object (convertible to std::basic_string_view) to use as initial contents
of the string stream
a - allocator used for allocating the contents of the string stream
specifies stream open mode. It is a BitmaskType, the following constants are
defined:


Constant Explanation
app seek to the end of stream before each write
mode - binary open in binary mode
in open for reading
out open for writing
trunc discard the contents of the stream when opening
ate seek to the end of stream immediately after open
noreplace (C++23) open in exclusive mode
other - another string stream to use as source

Notes


Construction of one-off basic_ostringstream objects in a tight loop, such as when
used for string conversion, may be significantly more costly than calling str() to
reuse the same object.

Example

// Run this code


#include <iostream>
#include <sstream>


int main()
{
// default constructor (input/output stream)
std::stringstream buf1;
buf1 << 7;
int n = 0;
buf1 >> n;
std::cout << "buf1 = " << buf1.str() << " n = " << n << '\n';


// input stream
std::istringstream inbuf("-10");
inbuf >> n;
std::cout << "n = " << n << '\n';


// output stream in append mode (C++11)
std::ostringstream buf2("test", std::ios_base::ate);
buf2 << '1';
std::cout << buf2.str() << '\n';
}

Output:


buf1 = 7 n = 7
n = -10
test1
