At least some older implementations don't have
<b>std::ios_base</b>, so you should use
<b>std::ios::badbit</b>, <b>std::ios::failbit</b>
and <b>std::ios::eofbit</b> and

<h2 class="title" style="clear: all">
<a name="sec-string-clear"><b>10. Using string::clear()/string::erase()</b></a>
</h2>
<p>
There are two functions for deleting the contents of a string:
<b>clear</b> and <b>erase</b> (the latter
returns the string).
<pre class="programlisting">
void
clear() { _M_mutate(0, this-&gt;size(), 0); }
</pre>
<pre class="programlisting">
basic_string&amp;
erase(size_type __pos = 0, size_type __n = npos)
{
return this-&gt;replace(_M_check(__pos), _M_fold(__pos, __n),
_M_data(), _M_data());
}
</pre>
The implementation of <b>erase</b> seems to be more
complicated (from libstdc++-v3), but <b>clear</b> is not
implemented in gcc 2.95.2's libstdc++, so you should use
<b>erase</b> (which is probably faster than
<b>operator=(charT*)</b>).
</p>
</div>
<div class="section" id="sec-stringstream">
<h2 class="title" style="clear: all">
<a name="sec-stringstream"><b>11. Using stringstream's</b></a>
</h2>
<p>
Libstdc++-v3 includes the new
<b>i/ostringstream</b>-classes, (<tt>&lt;sstream&gt;</tt>), but with older
implementations you still have to use <b>i/ostrstream</b>
(<tt>&lt;strstream&gt;</tt>):
<pre class="programlisting">
#ifdef HAVE_SSTREAM
#include &lt;sstream&gt;
#else
#include &lt;strstream&gt;
#endif
</pre>
<div class="itemizedlist">
<ul>
<li>
<a name="N3595"></a>
<p> <b>strstream</b> is considered to be
deprecated
</p>
</li>
<li>
<a name="N3603"></a>
<p> <b>strstream</b> is limited to
<b>char</b>
</p>
</li>
<li>
<a name="N3614"></a>
<p> with <b>ostringstream</b> you don't
have to take care of terminating the string or freeing its
memory
</p>
</li>
<li>
<a name="N3622"></a>
<p> <b>istringstream</b> can be re-filled
(clear(); str(input);)
</p>
</li>
</ul>
</div>
</p>
<p>
You can then use output-stringstreams like this:
<pre class="programlisting">
#ifdef HAVE_SSTREAM
std::ostringstream oss;
#else
std::ostrstream oss;
#endif
oss &lt;&lt; "Name=" &lt;&lt; m_name &lt;&lt; ", number=" &lt;&lt; m_number &lt;&lt; std::endl;
...
#ifndef HAVE_SSTREAM
oss &lt;&lt; std::ends; // terminate the char*-string
#endif
// str() returns char* for ostrstream and a string for ostringstream
// this also causes ostrstream to think that the buffer's memory
// is yours
m_label.set_text(oss.str());
#ifndef HAVE_SSTREAM
// let the ostrstream take care of freeing the memory
oss.freeze(false);
#endif
</pre>
</p>
<p>
Input-stringstreams can be used similarly:
<pre class="programlisting">
std::string input;
...
#ifdef HAVE_SSTREAM
std::istringstream iss(input);
#else
std::istrstream iss(input.c_str());
#endif
int i;
iss &gt;&gt; i;
</pre>
One (the only?) restriction is that an istrstream cannot be re-filled:
<pre class="programlisting">
std::istringstream iss(numerator);
iss &gt;&gt; m_num;
// this is not possible with istrstream
iss.clear();
iss.str(denominator);
iss &gt;&gt; m_den;
</pre>
If you don't care about speed, you can put these conversions in
a template-function:
<pre class="programlisting">
template &lt;class X&gt;
void fromString(const string&amp; input, X&amp; any)
{
#ifdef HAVE_SSTREAM
std::istringstream iss(input);
#else
std::istrstream iss(input.c_str());
#endif
X temp;
iss &gt;&gt; temp;
if (iss.fail())
throw runtime_error(..)
any = temp;
}
</pre>
</p>
<p>
I have read the Josuttis book on Standard C++, so some information
comes from there. Additionally, there is information in
"info iostream", which covers the old implementation that gcc 2.95.2
uses.
