27.4.3 Class template basic_string [basic.string]

27.4.3.1 General [basic.string.general]

1
#
The class template basic_string describes objects that can store a sequence consisting of a varying number of arbitrary char-like objects with the first element of the sequence at position zero.
Such a sequence is also called a “string” if the type of the char-like objects that it holds is clear from context.
In the rest of [basic.string], the type of the char-like objects held in a basic_string object is designated by charT.
2
#
A specialization of basic_string is a contiguous container ([container.reqmts]).
3
#
In all cases, [data(), data() + size()] is a valid range, data() + size() points at an object with value charT() (a “null terminator”), and size() <= capacity() is true.

A size_type parameter type in a basic_string deduction guide refers to the size_type member type of the type deduced by the deduction guide.
5
#
The types iterator and const_iterator meet the constexpr iterator requirements ([iterator.requirements.general]).

27.4.3.2 General requirements [string.require]

1
#
If any operation would cause size() to exceed max_size(), that operation throws an exception object of type length_error.
2
#
If any member function or operator of basic_string throws an exception, that function or operator has no other effect on the basic_string object.
3
#
Every object of type basic_string<charT, traits, Allocator> uses an object of type Allocator to allocate and free storage for the contained charT objects as needed.
The Allocator object used is obtained as described in [container.reqmts].
In every specialization basic_string<charT, traits, Allocator>, the type traits shall meet the character traits requirements ([char.traits]).
[Note 1: 
Every specialization basic_string<charT, traits, Allocator> is an allocator-aware container ([container.alloc.reqmts]), but does not use the allocator's construct and destroy member functions ([container.requirements.pre]).
The program is ill-formed if Allocator​::​value_type is not the same type as charT.
— end note]
[Note 2: 
The program is ill-formed if traits​::​char_type is not the same type as charT.
— end note]

#
References, pointers, and iterators referring to the elements of a basic_string sequence may be invalidated by the following uses of that basic_string object:
  • (4.1)
    Passing as an argument to any standard library function taking a reference to non-const basic_string as an argument.212
  • (4.2)
    Calling non-const member functions, except operator[], at, data, front, back, begin, rbegin, end, and rend.
212)212)
For example, as an argument to non-member functions swap() ([string.special]), operator>>() ([string.io]), and getline() ([string.io]), or as an argument to basic_string​::​swap().

14
#
Effects: A directive that informs a basic_string of a planned change in size, so that the storage allocation can be managed accordingly.
Following a call to reserve, capacity() is greater or equal to the argument of reserve if reallocation happens; and equal to the previous value of capacity() otherwise.
Reallocation happens at this point if and only if the current capacity is less than the argument of reserve.
15
#
Throws: length_error if res_arg > max_size() or any exceptions thrown by allocator_traits <Allocator>​::​allocate.
🔗
constexpr void shrink_to_fit();
16
#
Effects: shrink_to_fit is a non-binding request to reduce capacity() to size().

— end note]
It does not increase capacity(), but may reduce capacity() by causing reallocation.
17
#
Complexity: If the size is not equal to the old capacity, linear in the size of the sequence; otherwise constant.
18
#
Remarks: Reallocation invalidates all the references, pointers, and iterators referring to the elements in the sequence, as well as the past-the-end iterator.
[Note 2: 
If no reallocation happens, they remain valid.

1
#
Effects: Behaves as a formatted input function ([istream.formatted.reqmts]).
After constructing a sentry object, if the sentry object returns true when converted to a value of type bool, calls str.erase() and then extracts characters from is and appends them to str as if by calling str.append(1, c).
If is.width() is greater than zero, the maximum number n of characters appended is is.width(); otherwise n is str.max_size().
Characters are extracted and appended until any of the following occurs:
  • (1.1)
    n characters are stored;
  • (1.2)
    end-of-file occurs on the input sequence;
  • (1.3)
    isspace(c, is.getloc()) is true for the next available input character c.

#
After the last character (if any) is extracted, is.width(0) is called and the sentry object is destroyed.

Effects: Behaves as an unformatted input function ([istream.unformatted]), except that it does not affect the value returned by subsequent calls to basic_istream<>​::​gcount().
After constructing a sentry object, if the sentry object returns true when converted to a value of type bool, calls str.erase() and then extracts characters from is and appends them to str as if by calling str.append(1, c) until any of the following occurs:
  • (6.1)
    end-of-file occurs on the input sequence;
  • (6.2)
    traits​::​eq(c, delim) for the next available input character c (in which case, c is extracted but not appended);

27.4.4.5 Erasure [string.erasure]

🔗
template<class charT, class traits, class Allocator, class U = charT> constexpr typename basic_string<charT, traits, Allocator>::size_type erase(basic_string<charT, traits, Allocator>& c, const U& value);
1
#
Effects: Equivalent to: auto it = remove(c.begin(), c.end(), value); auto r = distance(it, c.end()); c.erase(it, c.end()); return r;
🔗
template<class charT, class traits, class Allocator, class Predicate> constexpr typename basic_string<charT, traits, Allocator>::size_type erase_if(basic_string<charT, traits, Allocator>& c, Predicate pred);

27.4.5 Numeric conversions [string.conversions]

🔗
int stoi(const string& str, size_t* idx = nullptr, int base = 10); long stol(const string& str, size_t* idx = nullptr, int base = 10); unsigned long stoul(const string& str, size_t* idx = nullptr, int base = 10); long long stoll(const string& str, size_t* idx = nullptr, int base = 10); unsigned long long stoull(const string& str, size_t* idx = nullptr, int base = 10);
1
#
Effects: The first two functions call strtol(str.c_str(), ptr, base), and the last three functions call strtoul(str.c_str(), ptr, base), strtoll(str.c_str(), ptr, base), and strtoull(​str.c_str(), ptr, base), respectively.
Each function returns the converted result, if any.
The argument ptr designates a pointer to an object internal to the function that is used to determine what to store at *idx.
If the function does not throw an exception and idx != nullptr, the function stores in *idx the index of the first unconverted element of str.
2
#
Returns: The converted result.
3
#
Throws: invalid_argument if strtol, strtoul, strtoll, or strtoull reports that no conversion can be performed.
Throws out_of_range if strtol, strtoul, strtoll or strtoull sets errno to ERANGE, or if the converted value is outside the range of representable values for the return type.

8
#
Effects: The first two functions call wcstol(str.c_str(), ptr, base), and the last three functions call wcstoul(str.c_str(), ptr, base), wcstoll(str.c_str(), ptr, base), and wcstoull(​str.c_str(), ptr, base), respectively.
Each function returns the converted result, if any.
The argument ptr designates a pointer to an object internal to the function that is used to determine what to store at *idx.
If the function does not throw an exception and idx != nullptr, the function stores in *idx the index of the first unconverted element of str.

If S is one of these string types, SV is the corresponding string view type, and s is an object of type S, then hash<S>()(s) == hash<SV>()(SV(s)).

27.4.7 Suffix for basic_string literals [basic.string.literals]

🔗
constexpr string operator""s(const char* str, size_t len);
1
#
Returns: string{str, len}.
🔗
constexpr u8string operator""s(const char8_t* str, size_t len);
2
#
Returns: u8string{str, len}.
🔗
constexpr u16string operator""s(const char16_t* str, size_t len);

#
Returns: u16string{str, len}.
🔗
constexpr u32string operator""s(const char32_t* str, size_t len);

#
Returns: u32string{str, len}.
🔗
constexpr wstring operator""s(const wchar_t* str, size_t len);
5
#
Returns: wstring{str, len}.
