20.20.5.3 Class template basic_­format_­parse_­context [format.parse.ctx]

namespace std { template<class charT> class basic_format_parse_context { public: using char_type = charT; using const_iterator = typename basic_string_view<charT>::const_iterator; using iterator = const_iterator; private: iterator begin_; // exposition only iterator end_; // exposition only enum indexing { unknown, manual, automatic }; // exposition only indexing indexing_; // exposition only size_t next_arg_id_; // exposition only size_t num_args_; // exposition only public: constexpr explicit basic_format_parse_context(basic_string_view<charT> fmt, size_t num_args = 0) noexcept; basic_format_parse_context(const basic_format_parse_context&) = delete; basic_format_parse_context& operator=(const basic_format_parse_context&) = delete; constexpr const_iterator begin() const noexcept; constexpr const_iterator end() const noexcept; constexpr void advance_to(const_iterator it); constexpr size_t next_arg_id(); constexpr void check_arg_id(size_t id); }; }
An instance of basic_­format_­parse_­context holds the format string parsing state consisting of the format string range being parsed and the argument counter for automatic indexing.
constexpr explicit basic_format_parse_context(basic_string_view<charT> fmt, size_t num_args = 0) noexcept;
Effects: Initializes begin_­ with fmt.begin(), end_­ with fmt.end(), indexing_­ with unknown, next_­arg_­id_­ with 0, and num_­args_­ with num_­args.
constexpr const_iterator begin() const noexcept;
Returns: begin_­.
constexpr const_iterator end() const noexcept;
Returns: end_­.
constexpr void advance_to(const_iterator it);
Preconditions: end() is reachable from it.
Effects: Equivalent to: begin_­ = it;
constexpr size_t next_arg_id();
Effects: If indexing_­ != manual, equivalent to: if (indexing_ == unknown) indexing_ = automatic; return next_arg_id_++;
Throws: format_­error if indexing_­ == manual which indicates mixing of automatic and manual argument indexing.
constexpr void check_arg_id(size_t id);
Effects: If indexing_­ != automatic, equivalent to: if (indexing_ == unknown) indexing_ = manual;
Throws: format_­error if indexing_­ == automatic which indicates mixing of automatic and manual argument indexing.
Remarks: Call expressions where id >= num_­args_­ are not core constant expressions ([expr.const]).
