how to reuse stringstream

问题

These threads do NOT answer me:

resetting a stringstream

How do you clear a stringstream variable?

        std::ifstream file( szFIleName_p );
        if( !file ) return false;

        // create a string stream for parsing

        std::stringstream szBuffer;

        std::string szLine;     // current line
        std::string szKeyWord;  // first word on the line identifying what data it contains

while( !file.eof()){

            // read line by line

            std::getline(file, szLine);

            // ignore empty lines

            if(szLine == "") continue;

            szBuffer.str("");
            szBuffer.str(szLine);
            szBuffer>>szKeyWord;

szKeyword will always contain the first word, szBuffer is not being reset, can't find a clear example anywhere on how to use stringstream.

New code after answer:

...
            szBuffer.str(szLine);
            szBuffer.clear();
            szBuffer>>szKeyWord;
...

Ok, thats my final version:

        std::string szLine;     // current line
        std::string szKeyWord;  // first word on the line identifying what data it contains

        // read line by line

        while( std::getline(file, szLine) ){

            // ignore empty lines

            if(szLine == "") continue;

            // create a string stream for parsing

            std::istringstream szBuffer(szLine);
            szBuffer>>szKeyWord;

回答1:

You didn't clear() the stream after calling str(""). Take another look at this answer, it also explains why you should reset using str(std::string()). And in your case, you could also reset the contents using only str(szLine).

If you don't call clear(), the flags of the stream (like eof) wont be reset, resulting in surprising behaviour ;)

回答2:

It depends what you're doing with it. It's generally easier to just create a new istringstream or ostringstream. To "reset" a stream, you have to clear its buffer, clear any error flags, reset any formatting flags, plus the precision and fill, reimbue it with the original locale, and not forget any extended formatting information generated with a value returned from xalloc. In sum, impossible to get correct.

And while I'm at it, your loop is wrong, and will probably result in the last line being processed twice. file.eof() only has a usable meaning after the input has failed (and even then, it's not 100% reliable). What you want is:

std::string line;
while ( std::getline( file, line ) ) {
    if ( !line.empty() ) {
        std::istringstream buffer( line );
        //  ...
    }
}

(Actually, you probably want to trim trailing white space from the line before the test for empty.)

回答3:

In most cases, it is easier to create a new istringstream or ostringstream instead of resetting the same ones.

However, if you do want to resent them:

Resent flags of the stream (to avoid unexpected behavior) using clear ().
While you can correct the contents of your stringstream using str (""), for efficiency purposes we might prefer str(std::string()).

回答4:

ss is stringstream. Use

first step: ss.clear();
second step: ss.str("");

to reuse the stringstream -- completely clear the string stream.

回答5:

If you have the stream in a class member, use unique_ptr<stringstream>, then just reset(new stringstream(...)) to reuse it.

回答6:

Imagine a config file.

par1=11
par2=22

codes:

std::string line, strpar1, strpar2;
int par1, par2;
std::ifstream configfile("config.cfg");

std::getline(configfile, line);    // first line to variable "line"
std::istringstream sline(line);
while (std::getline(sline, strpar1, '='));
par1 = std::stoi(strpar1);  // par1 get 11

bool b = sline.eof(); // true

std::getline(configfile, line);    // second line to variable "line"
sline.clear();    //
sline.str(line);    // reuse "sline"

b = sline.good();  // true  // goodbit is zero, indicating that none of the other bits is set.
b = sine.fail();  // false
b = sline.bad();  // false
b = sline.eof(); // false

while (std::getline(sline, strpar2, '='));
par2 = std::stoi(strpar2);  // par2 get 22

goodbit is zero, indicating that none of the other bits is set
