std::basic_osyncstream: std::basic_osyncstream

NAME

std::basic_osyncstream - std::basic_osyncstream

Synopsis


Defined in header <syncstream>
template<
class CharT,
class Traits = std::char_traits<CharT>, (since C++20)
class Allocator = std::allocator<CharT>
> class basic_osyncstream: public std::basic_ostream<CharT, Traits>


The class template std::basic_osyncstream is a convenience wrapper for std::basic_syncbuf. It provides a mechanism to synchronize threads writing to the same stream.
It can be used with a named variable:


  {
    std::osyncstream synced_out(std::cout); // synchronized wrapper for std::cout
    synced_out << "Hello, ";
    synced_out << "World!";
    synced_out << std::endl; // flush is noted, but not yet performed
    synced_out << "and more!\n";
  } // characters are transferred and std::cout is flushed


as well as with a temporary:


  std::osyncstream(std::cout) << "Hello, " << "World!" << '\n';


It provides the guarantee that all output made to the same final destination buffer (std::cout in the examples above) will be free of data races and will not be interleaved or garbled in any way, as long as every write to the that final destination buffer is made through (possibly different) instances of std::basic_osyncstream.
Typical implementation of std::basic_osyncstream holds only one member: the wrapped std::basic_syncbuf
Two specializations for common character types are also defined:
