std::ostream_iterator
C++98 · The Foundation · Compiler flag: -std=c++98
Explanation
Writes elements to an output stream as an iterator.
Real-World Scenario
Write results to a file in a logging system.
Quick Snippet
snippet.cpp
std::ostream_iterator<int> it(std::cout, " ");Full Example
ostream_iterator.cpp
// CodeNebula - C++98 Example: ostream_iterator
// Compile: g++ -std=c++98 -Wall -Wextra -o example ostream_iterator.cpp
#include <iostream>
#include <vector>
#include <algorithm>
#include <iterator>
int main() {
int arr[] = {1, 2, 3, 4, 5};
// ostream_iterator writes to an output stream
std::cout << "With comma delimiter: ";
std::copy(arr, arr + 5, std::ostream_iterator<int>(std::cout, ", "));
std::cout << std::endl;
std::cout << "With space delimiter: ";
std::copy(arr, arr + 5, std::ostream_iterator<int>(std::cout, " "));
std::cout << std::endl;
// Use with transform to output doubled values
std::vector<int> v;
for (int i = 0; i < 5; ++i) v.push_back(arr[i]);
std::cout << "Doubled values: ";
std::transform(v.begin(), v.end(),
std::ostream_iterator<int>(std::cout, " "),
std::bind1st(std::multiplies<int>(), 2));
std::cout << std::endl;
return 0;
}
// Expected output:
// With comma delimiter: 1, 2, 3, 4, 5,
// With space delimiter: 1 2 3 4 5
// Doubled values: 2 4 6 8 10
