std::istreambuf_iterator<CharT,Traits>::operator*,operator->: std::istreambuf_iterator<CharT,Traits>::operator*,operator->

NAME

std::istreambuf_iterator<CharT,Traits>::operator*,operator-> - std::istreambuf_iterator<CharT,Traits>::operator*,operator->

Synopsis

CharT operator*() const; (1)
pointer operator->() const; (2) (since C++11)
                                (until C++17)

Reads a single character by calling sbuf_->sgetc() where sbuf_ is the stored pointer to the stream buffer.
The behavior is undefined if the iterator is end-of-stream iterator.

Parameters

(none)

Return value

1) The value of the obtained character.
2) An object of unspecified type, such that given an istreambuf iterator i, the expressions (*i).m and i->m have the same effect.

Exceptions

(none)
