streamsize width() const; | (1) | |
streamsize width( streamsize new_width ); | (2) |
Manages the minimum number of characters to generate on certain output operations and the maximum number of characters to generate on certain input operations.
new_width | - | new field width setting |
The field width before the call to the function.
Some I/O functions call width(0)
before returning, see std::setw
(this results in this field having effect on the next I/O function only, and not on any subsequent I/O).
The exact effects this modifier has on the input and output vary between the individual I/O functions and are described at each operator<<
and operator>>
overload page individually.
