22 Localization library [localization]

Effects: Writes characters to the sequence out, formatting val as desired. In the following description, a local variable initialized with

locale loc = str.getloc();

The details of this operation occur in several stages:

• (2.1)

  Stage 1: Determine a printf conversion specifier spec and determining the characters that would be printed by printf ([c.files]) given this conversion specifier for

  printf(spec, val )
  

  assuming that the current locale is the "C" locale.

• (2.2)

  Stage 2: Adjust the representation by converting each char determined by stage 1 to a charT using a conversion and values returned by members of use_facet< numpunct<charT> >(str.getloc())

• (2.3)

  Stage 3: Determine where padding is required.

• (2.4)

  Stage 4: Insert the sequence into the out.

Detailed descriptions of each stage follow.

Returns: out.

• (5.1)

  The first action of stage 1 is to determine a conversion specifier. The tables that describe this determination use the following local variables

  fmtflags flags = str.flags() ;
  fmtflags basefield =  (flags & (ios_base::basefield));
  fmtflags uppercase =  (flags & (ios_base::uppercase));
  fmtflags floatfield = (flags & (ios_base::floatfield));
  fmtflags showpos =    (flags & (ios_base::showpos));
  fmtflags showbase =   (flags & (ios_base::showbase));
  

  All tables used in describing stage 1 are ordered. That is, the first line whose condition is true applies. A line without a condition is the default behavior when none of the earlier lines apply.

  For conversion from an integral type other than a character type, the function determines the integral conversion specifier as indicated in Table [tab:localization.integer.conversions.out].

  Table 87 — Integer conversions
  

  State	stdio equivalent
  basefield == ios_base::oct	%o
  (basefield == ios_base::hex) && !uppercase	%x
  (basefield == ios_base::hex)	%X
  for a signed integral type	%d
  for an unsigned integral type	%u

  For conversion from a floating-point type, the function determines the floating-point conversion specifier as indicated in Table [tab:localization.fp.conversions.out].

  Table 88 — Floating-point conversions
  

  State	stdio equivalent
  floatfield == ios_base::fixed	%f
  floatfield == ios_base::scientific && !uppercase	%e
  floatfield == ios_base::scientific	%E
  floatfield == (ios_base::fixed | ios_base::scientific) && !uppercase	%a
  floatfield == (ios_base::fixed | ios_base::scientific)	%A
  !uppercase	%g
  otherwise	%G

  For conversions from an integral or floating-point type a length modifier is added to the conversion specifier as indicated in Table [tab:localization.length.modifier.out].

  Table 89 — Length modifier
  

  Type	Length modifier
  long	l
  long long	ll
  unsigned long	l
  unsigned long long	ll
  long double	L
  otherwise	none

  The conversion specifier has the following optional additional qualifiers prepended as indicated in Table [tab:localization.numeric.conversions].

  Table 90 — Numeric conversions
  

  Type(s)	State	stdio equivalent
  an integral type	flags & showpos	+
  	flags & showbase	#
  a floating-point type	flags & showpos	+
  	flags & showpoint	#

  For conversion from a floating-point type, if floatfield != (ios_base::fixed | ios_base::scientific), str.precision() is specified as precision in the conversion specification. Otherwise, no precision is specified. For conversion from void* the specifier is %p. The representations at the end of stage 1 consists of the char's that would be printed by a call of printf(s, val) where s is the conversion specifier determined above.

• (5.2)

  Any character c other than a decimal point(.) is converted to a charT via use_facet<ctype<charT> >(loc).widen( c )

  A local variable punct is initialized via

  const numpunct<charT>& punct = use_facet< numpunct<charT> >(str.getloc());
  

  For arithmetic types, punct.thousands_sep() characters are inserted into the sequence as determined by the value returned by punct.do_grouping() using the method described in [facet.numpunct.virtuals] Decimal point characters(.) are replaced by punct.decimal_point()

• (5.3)

  A local variable is initialized as

  fmtflags adjustfield=   (flags & (ios_base::adjustfield));
  

  The location of any padding247 is determined according to Table [tab:localization.fill.padding].

  Table 91 — Fill padding
  

  State	Location
  adjustfield == ios_base::left	pad after
  adjustfield == ios_base::right	pad before
  adjustfield == internal and a sign occurs in the representation	pad after the sign
  adjustfield == internal and representation after stage 1 began with 0x or 0X	pad after x or X
  otherwise	pad before

  If str.width() is nonzero and the number of charT's in the sequence after stage 2 is less than str.width(), then enough fill characters are added to the sequence at the position indicated for padding to bring the length of the sequence to str.width(). str.width(0) is called.

• (5.4)

  The sequence of charT's at the end of stage 3 are output via

  *out++ = c
  

Returns: If (str.flags() & ios_base::boolalpha) == 0 returns do_put(out, str, fill,
(int)val), otherwise obtains a string s as if by

string_type s =
  val ? use_facet<numpunct<charT>>(loc).truename()
    : use_facet<numpunct<charT>>(loc).falsename();

and then inserts each character c of s into out via *out++ = c and returns out.
