regex_traits Class

    int value(Elem ch, int base) const;
    locale_type imbue(locale_type loc);
    locale_type getloc() const;

    typedef Elem char_type;
    typedef T6 size_type;
    typedef basic_string<Elem> string_type;
    typedef T7 locale_type;
    typedef T8 char_class_type;
    };

Parameters

  • Elem
    The element type to describe.

Remarks

The template class describes various regular expression traits for type Elem. The template class basic_regex Class uses this information to manipulate elements of type Elem.

Each regex_traits object holds an object of type regex_traits::locale which is used by some of its member functions. The default locale is a copy of regex_traits::locale(). The member function imbue replaces the locale object, and the member function getloc returns a copy of the locale object.
