<iosfwd>

 

The latest version of this topic can be found at <iosfwd>.

Declares forward references to several template classes used throughout iostreams. All such template classes are defined in other standard headers. You include this header explicitly only when you need one of its declarations, but not its definition.

Syntax

#include <iosfwd>
