std::basic_fstream::basic_fstream

basic_fstream();
(1)
explicit basic_fstream( const char* filename,
               ios_base::openmode mode = ios_base::in|ios_base::out );
(2)
explicit basic_fstream( const string& filename,                                  
               ios_base::openmode mode = ios_base::in|ios_base::out );
(3) (since C++11)
basic_fstream( basic_fstream&& other );
(4) (since C++11)
basic_fstream( const basic_fstream& rhs) = delete;
(5) (since C++11)

Constructs new file stream.

1) Default constructor: constructs a stream that is not associated with a file: default-constructs the std::basic_filebuf and constructs the base with the pointer to this default-constructed std::basic_filebuf member.
2) First, performs the same steps as the default constructor, then associates the stream with a file by calling rdbuf()->open(filename, mode) (see std::basic_filebuf::open for the details on the effects of that call). If the open() call returns a null pointer, sets setstate(failbit).
3) Same as basic_fstream(filename.c_str(), mode).
4) Move constructor. First, move-constructs the base class from other (which does not affect the rdbuf() pointer), then move-constructs the std::basic_filebuf member, then calls this->set_rdbuf() to install the new basic_filebuf as the rdbuf() pointer in the base class.
5) The copy-constructor is deleted: this class is not copyable.

Parameters

filename - the name of the file to be opened
mode - specifies stream open mode. It is bitmask type, the following constants are defined:
Constant Explanation
app seek to the end of stream before each write
binary open in binary mode
in open for reading
out open for writing
trunc discard the contents of the stream when opening
ate seek to the end of stream immediately after open
other - another file stream to use as source

Example

#include <fstream>
#include <utility>
#include <string>
int main()
{
    std::fstream f0;
    std::fstream f1("test.bin", std::ios::binary);
    std::string name = "example.txt";
    std::fstream f2(name);
    std::fstream f3(std::move(f1));
}
