NAME¶

std::basic_streambuf::uflow - std::basic_streambuf::uflow

Synopsis¶

protected:
virtual int_type uflow();

Ensures that at least one character is available in the input area by updating the
pointers to the input area (if needed). On success returns the value of that
character and advances the value of the get pointer by one character. On failure
returns traits::eof().

The function may update gptr, egptr and eback pointers to define the location of
newly loaded data (if any). On failure, the function ensures that either gptr() ==
nullptr or gptr() == egptr.

The base class version of the function calls underflow() and increments gptr().

Parameters¶

(none)

Return value¶

The value of the character that was pointed to by the get pointer before it was
advanced by one, or traits::eof() otherwise.

The base class version of the function returns the value returned by underflow().

Note¶

The public functions of std::streambuf call this function only if gptr() == nullptr
or gptr() >= egptr().

The custom streambuf classes that do not use the get area and do not set the get
area pointers in basic_streambuf are required to override this function.
