basic_filebuf<charT, traits>* rdbuf() const;

Returns: const_cast<basic_filebuf<charT, traits>*>(addressof(sb)).

🔗

bool is_open() const;

Returns: rdbuf()->is_open().

🔗

void open(const char* s, ios_base::openmode mode = ios_base::in);
void open(const filesystem::path::value_type* s,
          ios_base::openmode mode = ios_base::in);  // wide systems only; see [fstream.syn]

Effects: Calls rdbuf()->open(s, mode | ios_base::in).

If that function does not return a null pointer calls clear(), otherwise calls setstate(failbit) (which may throw ios_base::failure) ([iostate.flags]).

🔗

void open(const string& s, ios_base::openmode mode = ios_base::in);
void open(const filesystem::path& s, ios_base::openmode mode = ios_base::in);

Effects: Calls open(s.c_str(), mode).

🔗

void close();

Effects: Calls rdbuf()->close() and, if that function returns a null pointer, calls setstate(failbit) (which may throw ios_base::failure) ([iostate.flags]).
