setiosflags
(C++14)
Defined in header 
 
 
<iomanip> 
 /*unspecified*/ setiosflags( std::ios_base::fmtflags mask );
 
 
When used in an expression out << setiosflags(mask) or in >> setiosflags(mask), sets all format flags of the stream out or in as specified by the mask.
[edit] Parameters
 mask
 -
 bitmask of the flags to set
[edit] Return value
An object of unspecified type such that
-  if out is an object of type std::basic_ostream <CharT, Traits>, the expression out << setiosflags(mask)
- has type std::basic_ostream <CharT, Traits>&
- has value out
- behaves as if it called f(out, mask)
 
-  if in is an object of type std::basic_istream <CharT, Traits>, the expression in >> setiosflags(mask)
- has type std::basic_istream <CharT, Traits>&
- has value in
- behaves as if it called f(in, mask)
 
where the function f is defined as:
void f(std::ios_base & str, std::ios_base::fmtflags mask) { // set specified flags str.setf(mask); }
[edit] Example
Run this code
#include <iomanip> #include <iostream> int main() { std::cout << std::resetiosflags (std::ios_base::dec ) << std::setiosflags( std::ios_base::hex | std::ios_base::uppercase | std::ios_base::showbase ) << 42 << '\n'; }
Output:
0X2A
