std::ctype_byname<char>: std::ctype_byname<char>

NAME

std::ctype_byname<char> - std::ctype_byname<char>

Synopsis

Defined in header <locale>
template<>
class ctype_byname : public std::ctype<char>;

This specialization of std::ctype_byname encapsulates character classification features for type char. Like its base class std::ctype<char> and unlike general-purpose std::ctype_byname, table lookup is used to classify characters

Example

// Run this code

  #include <iostream>
  #include <locale>

  int main()
  {
      char c = '\xde'; // capital letter thorn

      std::locale loc("C");

      std::cout << "isupper('Þ', C locale) returned "
                 << std::boolalpha << std::isupper(c, loc) << '\n';

      loc = std::locale(loc, new std::ctype_byname<char>("en_US.utf8"));

      std::cout << "isupper('Þ', C locale with Unicode ctype<char>) returned "
                << std::boolalpha << std::isupper(c, loc) << '\n';

      loc = std::locale(loc, new std::ctype_byname<char>("is_IS.iso88591"));

      std::cout << "isupper('Þ', C locale with Islandic ctype<char>) returned "
                << std::boolalpha << std::isupper(c, loc) << '\n';
  }

Output:

  isupper('Þ', C locale) returned false
  isupper('Þ', C locale with Unicode ctype<char>) returned false
  isupper('Þ', C locale with Islandic ctype<char>) returned true
