| <P>The class <B><I>basic_istream</I></B> assists in reading and interpreting sequences of characters controlled by a stream buffer. Two groups of functions share common properties, the formatted functions and the unformatted functions. </P> |
| <P>Both groups of functions obtain (or extract) input characters from <B><I><A HREF="basic-streambuf.html">basic_streambuf</A></I></B>. They both begin by constructing an object of class <A HREF="basic-istream.html#sentry">basic_istream::sentry</A> and, if this object returns <SAMP>true</SAMP> when converted to <SAMP>bool</SAMP> after construction, the function obtains the requested input. The <SAMP>sentry</SAMP> object performs exception-safe initialization, such as controlling the status of the stream or locking it in a multithread environment. </P> |
| <P>Some formatted input functions parse characters extracted from the input sequence, converting the result to a value of some scalar data type, and storing the converted value in an object of that scalar type. The conversion behavior depends directly on the locale object being imbued in the stream.</P> |
