template<> class ctype<char>; |
This specialization of std::ctype
encapsulates character classification features for type char
. Unlike general-purpose std::ctype
, which uses virtual functions, this specialization uses table lookup to classify characters (which is generally faster).
The base class std::ctype<char>
implements character classification equivalent to the minimal "C" locale. The classification rules can be extended or modified if constructed with a non-default classification table argument, if constructed as std::ctype_byname<char>
or as a user-defined derived facet. All std::istream
formatted input functions are required to use std::ctype<char>
for character classing during input parsing.

The following example demonstrates modification of ctype<char> to tokenize comma-separated values.
#include <iostream> #include <vector> #include <locale> #include <sstream> // This ctype facet classifies commas and endlines as whitespace struct csv_whitespace : std::ctype<char> { static const mask* make_table() { // make a copy of the "C" locale table static std::vector<mask> v(classic_table(), classic_table() + table_size); v[','] |= space; // comma will be classified as whitespace v[' '] &= ~space; // space will not be classified as whitespace return &v[0]; } csv_whitespace(std::size_t refs = 0) : ctype(make_table(), false, refs) {} }; int main() { std::string in = "Column 1,Column 2,Column 3\n123,456,789"; std::string token; std::cout << "default locale:\n"; std::istringstream s1(in); while(s1 >> token) std::cout << " " << token << '\n'; std::cout << "locale with modified ctype:\n"; std::istringstream s2(in); s2.imbue(std::locale(s2.getloc(), new csv_whitespace)); while(s2 >> token) std::cout << " " << token<< '\n'; }
Output:
default locale: Column 1,Column 2,Column 3 123,456,789 locale with modified ctype: Column 1 Column 2 Column 3 123 456 789
