std::experimental::filesystem::path::operator=: std::experimental::filesystem::path::operator=

NAME

std::experimental::filesystem::path::operator= - std::experimental::filesystem::path::operator=

Synopsis

path& operator=( const path& p ); (1) (filesystem TS)
path& operator=( path&& p ); (2) (filesystem TS)
template< class Source > (2) (filesystem TS)
path& operator=( const Source& source );

1) Replaces the contents of *this with a copy of the contents of p.
2) Replaces the contents of *this with p, possibly using move semantics: p is left in valid, but unspecified state.
3) Replaces the contents of *this with a new path value constructed from source as if by overload (4) of the path_constructor. Equivalent to assign(source).

Parameters

p - a path to assign
source - a std::basic_string, pointer to a null-terminated character/wide character string, or an input iterator that points to a null-terminated character/wide character sequence. The character type must be one of char, char16_t, char32_t, wchar_t

Return value

*this

Exceptions

1) (none)
2)
noexcept specification:
noexcept
3) (none)

Example

// Run this code

  #include <experimental/filesystem>
  namespace fs = std::experimental::filesystem;
  int main()
  {
      fs::path p = "C:/users/abcdef/AppData/Local";
      p = p / "Temp"; // move assignment
      const wchar_t* wstr = L"D:/猫.txt";
      p = wstr; // assignment from a source
  }
