Many people simply include + <iostream> when they don't need to -- and that can <em>penalize + your runtime as well.</em> Here are some tips on which header to use + for which situations, starting with the simplest. + </p> + <p><strong><iosfwd></strong> should be included whenever you simply + need the <em>name</em> of an I/O-related class, such as + "ofstream" or "basic_streambuf". Like the name + implies, these are forward declarations. (A word to all you fellow + old school programmers: trying to forward declare classes like + "class istream;" won't work. Look in the iosfwd header if + you'd like to know why.) For example, + </p> + <pre> + #include <iosfwd> + + class MyClass + { + .... + std::ifstream input_file; + }; + + extern std::ostream& operator<< (std::ostream&, MyClass&); + </pre> + <p><strong><ios></strong> declares the base classes for the entire + I/O stream hierarchy, std::ios_base and std::basic_ios<charT>, the + counting types std::streamoff and std::streamsize, the file + positioning type std::fpos, and the various manipulators like + std::hex, std::fixed, std::noshowbase, and so forth. + </p> + <p>The ios_base class is what holds the format flags, the state flags, + and the functions which change them (setf(), width(), precision(), + etc). You can also store extra data and register callback functions + through ios_base, but that has been historically underused. Anything + which doesn't depend on the type of characters stored is consolidated + here. + </p> + <p>The template class basic_ios is the highest template class in the + hierarchy; it is the first one depending on the character type, and + holds all general state associated with that type: the pointer to the + polymorphic stream buffer, the facet information, etc. + </p> + <p><strong><streambuf></strong> declares the template class + basic_streambuf, and two standard instantiations, streambuf and + wstreambuf. If you need to work with the vastly useful and capable + stream buffer classes, e.g., to create a new form of storage + transport, this header is the one to include. + </p> + <p><strong><istream></strong>/<strong><ostream></strong> are + the headers to include when you are using the >>/<< + interface, or any of the other abstract stream formatting functions. + For example, + </p> + <pre> + #include <istream> + + std::ostream& operator<< (std::ostream& os, MyClass& c) + { + return os << c.data1() << c.data2(); + } + </pre> + <p>The std::istream and std::ostream classes are the abstract parents of + the various concrete implementations. If you are only using the + interfaces, then you only need to use the appropriate interface header. + </p> + <p><strong><iomanip></strong> provides "extractors and inserters + that alter information maintained by class ios_base and its dervied + classes," such as std::setprecision and std::setw. If you need + to write expressions like <code>os << setw(3);</code> or + <code>is >> setbase(8);</code>, you must include <iomanip>. + </p> + <p><strong><sstream></strong>/<strong><fstream></strong> + declare the six stringstream and fstream classes. As they are the + standard concrete descendants of istream and ostream, you will already + know about them. + </p> + <p>Finally, <strong><iostream></strong> provides the eight standard + global objects (cin, cout, etc). To do this correctly, this header + also provides the contents of the <istream> and <ostream> + headers, but nothing else. The contents of this header look like + </p> + <pre> + #include <ostream> + #include <istream> + + namespace std + { + extern istream cin; + extern ostream cout; + .... + + // this is explained below + <strong>static ios_base::Init __foo;</strong> // not its real name + } + </pre> + <p>Now, the runtime penalty mentioned previously: the global objects + must be initialized before any of your own code uses them; this is + guaranteed by the standard. Like any other global object, they must + be initialized once and only once. This is typically done with a + construct like the one above, and the nested class ios_base::Init is + specified in the standard for just this reason. + </p> + <p>How does it work? Because the header is included before any of your + code, the <strong>__foo</strong> object is constructed before any of + your objects. (Global objects are built in the order in which they + are declared, and destroyed in reverse order.) The first time the + constructor runs, the eight stream objects are set up. + </p> + <p>The <code>static</code> keyword means that each object file compiled + from a source file containing <iostream> will have its own + private copy of <strong>__foo</strong>. There is no specified order + of construction across object files (it's one of those pesky NP + problems that make life so interesting), so one copy in each object + file means that the stream objects are guaranteed to be set up before + any of your code which uses them could run, thereby meeting the + requirements of the standard. + </p> + <p>The penalty, of course, is that after the first copy of + <strong>__foo</strong> is constructed, all the others are just wasted + processor time. The time spent is merely for an increment-and-test + inside a function call, but over several dozen or hundreds of object + files, that time can add up. (It's not in a tight loop, either.) + </p> + <p>The lesson? Only include <iostream> when you need to use one of + the standard objects in that source file; you'll pay less startup + time. Only include the header files you need to in general; your + compile times will go down when there's less parsing work to do. + </p> + <!-- ####################################################### --> diff --git a/libstdc++-v3/docs/html/documentation.html b/libstdc++-v3/docs/html/documentation.html index a4a79e3..8c40fb0 100644 --- a/libstdc++-v3/docs/html/documentation.html +++ b/libstdc++-v3/docs/html/documentation.html @@ -66,7 +66,7 @@ <ul> <li><a href="libstdc++-html-USERS-3.1/index.html">for the 3.1 release</a> </li> - <li><a href="libstdc++-html-USERS-3.2/index.html">for the 3.2 release</a> + <li><a href="libstdc++-html-USERS-3.2/index.html">for the 3.2.x release</a> </li> <li><a href="latest-doxygen/index.html">"the latest collection"</a> (for the snapshot or later; see the date on the first page) @@ -208,6 +208,7 @@ <li><a href="27_io/howto.html#7">More on binary I/O</a></li> <li><a href="27_io/howto.html#8">Pathetic performance?
