## Detailed Description

### template<typename _Ch_type>
class std::regex_traits< _Ch_type >

Describes aspects of a regular expression.

A regular expression traits class that satisfies the requirements of section [28.7].

The class regex is parameterized around a set of related types and functions used to complete the definition of its semantics. This class satisfies the requirements of such a traits class.

## Constructor & Destructor Documentation

## regex_traits()

template<typename _Ch_type>

std::regex_traits< _Ch_type >::regex_traits | ( |  | ) |

inline

Constructs a default traits object.

Definition at line 158 of file regex.h.

## Member Function Documentation

## getloc()

template<typename _Ch_type>

locale_type std::regex_traits< _Ch_type >::getloc | ( |  | ) | const

inline

Gets a copy of the current locale in use by the regex_traits object.

Definition at line 371 of file regex.h.

## imbue()

template<typename _Ch_type>

locale_type std::regex_traits< _Ch_type >::imbue | ( | locale_type | __loc | ) |

inline

Imbues the regex_traits object with a copy of a new locale.

Parameters

  __loc | A locale.

Returns
  a copy of the previous locale in use by the regex_traits object.

Note
  Calling imbue with a different locale than the one currently in use invalidates all cached data held by *this.

Definition at line 360 of file regex.h.

## isctype()

template<typename _Ch_type>

bool std::regex_traits< _Ch_type >::isctype | ( | _Ch_type | __c,
|  | char_class_type | __f
| ) |  | const

Determines if `c` is a member of an identified class.

Parameters

  __c | a character.
  __f | a class type (as returned from lookup_classname).

Returns
  true if the character `__c` is a member of the classification represented by `__f`, false otherwise.

Exceptions

  std::bad_cast | if the current locale does not have a ctype facet.

## length()

template<typename _Ch_type>

static std::size_t std::regex_traits< _Ch_type >::length | ( | const char_type * | __p | ) |

inline static

Gives the length of a C-style string starting at `__p`.

Parameters

  __p | a pointer to the start of a character sequence.

Returns
  the number of characters between `*__p` and the first default-initialized value of type `char_type`. In other words, uses the C-string algorithm for determining the length of a sequence of characters.

Definition at line 171 of file regex.h.

## lookup_classname()

template<typename _Ch_type >
template<typename _Fwd_iter >

regex_traits< _Ch_type >::char_class_type std::regex_traits< _Ch_type >::lookup_classname | ( | _Fwd_iter | __first,
|  | _Fwd_iter | __last,
|  | bool | __icase = `false`
| ) |  | const

Maps one or more characters to a named character classification.

Parameters

  __first | beginning of the character sequence.
  __last | one-past-the-end of the character sequence.
  __icase | ignores the case of the classification name.

Returns
  an unspecified value that represents the character classification named by the character sequence designated by the iterator range [__first, __last). If `icase` is true, the returned mask identifies the classification regardless of the case of the characters to be matched (for example, [[:lower:]] is the same as [[:alpha:]]), otherwise a case-dependent classification is returned. The value returned shall be independent of the case of the characters in the character sequence. If the name is not recognized then returns a value that compares equal to 0.

At least the following names (or their wide-character equivalent) are supported.

- d
- w
- s
- alnum
- alpha
- blank
- cntrl
- digit
- graph
- lower
- print
- punct
- space
- upper
- xdigit

## lookup_collatename()

template<typename _Ch_type >
template<typename _Fwd_iter >

regex_traits< _Ch_type >::string_type std::regex_traits< _Ch_type >::lookup_collatename | ( | _Fwd_iter | __first,
|  | _Fwd_iter | __last
| ) |  | const

Gets a collation element by name.

Parameters

  __first | beginning of the collation element name.
  __last | one-past-the-end of the collation element name.

Returns
  a sequence of one or more characters that represents the collating element consisting of the character sequence designated by the iterator range [__first, __last). Returns an empty string if the character sequence is not a valid collating element.

Definition at line 127 of file regex.tcc.

## transform()

template<typename _Ch_type>
template<typename _Fwd_iter >

string_type std::regex_traits< _Ch_type >::transform | ( | _Fwd_iter | __first,
|  | _Fwd_iter | __last
| ) |  | const

inline

Gets a sort key for a character sequence.

Parameters

  __first | beginning of the character sequence.
  __last | one-past-the-end of the character sequence.

Returns a sort key for the character sequence designated by the iterator range [F1, F2) such that if the character sequence [G1, G2) sorts before the character sequence [H1, H2) then v.transform(G1, G2) < v.transform(H1, H2).

What this really does is provide a more efficient way to compare a string to multiple other strings in locales with fancy collation rules and equivalence classes.

Returns
  a locale-specific sort key equivalent to the input range.

Exceptions

  std::bad_cast | if the current locale does not have a collate facet.

Definition at line 224 of file regex.h.

## transform_primary()

template<typename _Ch_type>
template<typename _Fwd_iter >

string_type std::regex_traits< _Ch_type >::transform_primary | ( | _Fwd_iter | __first,
|  | _Fwd_iter | __last
| ) |  | const

inline

Gets a sort key for a character sequence, independent of case.

Parameters

  __first | beginning of the character sequence.
  __last | one-past-the-end of the character sequence.

Effects: if typeid(use_facet<collate<_Ch_type> >) == typeid(collate_byname<_Ch_type>) and the form of the sort key returned by collate_byname<_Ch_type>::transform(__first, __last) is known and can be converted into a primary sort key then returns that key, otherwise returns an empty string.

Todo:
  Implement this function correctly.

Definition at line 248 of file regex.h.

## translate()

template<typename _Ch_type>

char_type std::regex_traits< _Ch_type >::translate | ( | char_type | __c | ) | const

inline

Performs the identity translation.

Parameters

  __c | A character to the locale-specific character set.

Returns
  __c.

Definition at line 182 of file regex.h.

## translate_nocase()

template<typename _Ch_type>

char_type std::regex_traits< _Ch_type >::translate_nocase | ( | char_type | __c | ) | const

inline

Translates a character into a case-insensitive equivalent.

Parameters

  __c | A character to the locale-specific character set.

Returns
  the locale-specific lower-case equivalent of __c.

Exceptions

  std::bad_cast | if the imbued locale does not support the ctype facet.

Definition at line 195 of file regex.h.

## value()

template<typename _Ch_type>

int std::regex_traits< _Ch_type >::value | ( | _Ch_type | __ch,
|  | int | __radix
| ) |  | const

Converts a digit to an int.

Parameters

  __ch | a character representing a digit.
  __radix | the radix if the numeric conversion (limited to 8, 10, or 16).

Returns
  the value represented by the digit __ch in base radix if the character __ch is a valid digit in base radix; otherwise returns -1.
