31.11.3.1 Overview [syncstream.osyncstream.overview]

namespace std { template<class charT, class traits = char_traits<charT>, class Allocator = allocator<charT>> class basic_osyncstream : public basic_ostream<charT, traits> { public: using char_type = charT; using int_type = typename traits::int_type; using pos_type = typename traits::pos_type; using off_type = typename traits::off_type; using traits_type = traits; using allocator_type = Allocator; using streambuf_type = basic_streambuf<charT, traits>; using syncbuf_type = basic_syncbuf<charT, traits, Allocator>; // [syncstream.osyncstream.cons], construction and destruction basic_osyncstream(streambuf_type*, const Allocator&); explicit basic_osyncstream(streambuf_type* obuf) : basic_osyncstream(obuf, Allocator()) {} basic_osyncstream(basic_ostream<charT, traits>& os, const Allocator& allocator) : basic_osyncstream(os.rdbuf(), allocator) {} explicit basic_osyncstream(basic_ostream<charT, traits>& os) : basic_osyncstream(os, Allocator()) {} basic_osyncstream(basic_osyncstream&&) noexcept; ~basic_osyncstream(); // assignment basic_osyncstream& operator=(basic_osyncstream&&); // [syncstream.osyncstream.members], member functions void emit(); streambuf_type* get_wrapped() const noexcept; syncbuf_type* rdbuf() const noexcept { return const_cast<syncbuf_type*>(addressof(sb)); } private: syncbuf_type sb; // exposition only }; }
Allocator shall meet the Cpp17Allocator requirements ([allocator.requirements.general]).
[Example 1: 
A named variable can be used within a block statement for streaming.
{ osyncstream bout(cout); bout << "Hello, "; bout << "World!"; bout << endl; // flush is noted bout << "and more!\n"; } // characters are transferred and cout is flushed — end example]
[Example 2: 
A temporary object can be used for streaming within a single statement.
osyncstream(cout) << "Hello, " << "World!" << '\n';
In this example, cout is not flushed.
