std::basic_...nd_overwrite(3) C++ Standard Libarystd::basic_...nd_overwrite(3) NAME std::basic_string::resize_and_overwrite - std::basic_string::re- size_and_overwrite Synopsis template< class Operation > (since C++23) constexpr void resize_and_overwrite( size_type count, Operation op ); Resizes the string to contain at most count characters, using the user-provided operation op to modify the possibly indeterminate contents and set the length. This avoids the cost of initializing a suitably-sized std::string when it is intended to be used as a char array to be populated by, e.g., a C API call. This function performs following steps: 1. Obtains contiguous storage that contains count + 1 characters, and makes its first k characters equal to the first k characters of *this, where k is the smaller of count and the result of this->size() before the call to resize_and_overwrite. Let p denote the pointer to the first character in the storage. * The equality is determined as if by checking this->com- pare(0, k, p, k) == 0. * The characters in [p + k, p + count] may have indeterminate values. 2. Evaluates std::move(op)(p, count). Let r be the return value of std::move(op)(p, count). 3. Replaces the contents of *this with [p, p + r) (which sets the length of *this to r). Invalidates all pointers and references to the range [p, p + count]. The program is ill-formed if r does not have an integer-like type. The behavior is undefined if std::move(op)(p, count) throws an exception or modifies p or count, r is not in the range [0, count], or any character in range [p, p + r) has an indeterminate value. Implementations are recommended to avoid unnecessary copies and al- locations by, e.g., making p equal to the pointer to beginning of storage of char- acters allocated for *this after the call, which can be identical to the existing storage of *this if count is less than or equal to this->capacity(). Parameters count - the maximal possible new size of the string op - the function object used for setting the new contents of the string Return value (none) Exceptions std::length_error if count > this->max_size(). Any exceptions thrown by corresponding Allocator. If an exception is thrown from std::move(op)(p, count), the behavior is undefined. Otherwise, if an exception is thrown, this function has no effect. Notes resize_and_overwrite invalidates all iterators, pointers, and refer- ences into *this, regardless whether reallocation occurs. Implementations may assume that the contents of the string are not aliased after the call to resize_and_over- write.
