std::basic_string::copy(3) C++ Standard Libary std::basic_string::copy(3) NAME std::basic_string::copy - std::basic_string::copy Synopsis size_type copy( CharT* dest, size_type count, size_type pos (const- expr since C++20) = 0 ) const; Copies a substring [pos, pos + count) to character string pointed to by dest. If the requested substring lasts past the end of the string, or if count == npos, the copied substring is [pos, size()). The resulting character string is not null-terminated. Parameters dest - pointer to the destination character string count - length of the substring pos - position of the first character to include Return value Number of characters copied. Exceptions std::out_of_range if pos > size(). If an exception is thrown for any reason, this function has no ef- fect (strong exception safety guarantee). Complexity Linear in count. Example // Run this code #include <iostream> #include <string> int main() { std::string foo("WINE"); // brace-initialization initializes all characters to 0, // providing a null-terminator char bar[4]{}; // do not copy the last char, to guarantee null-termination foo.copy(bar, sizeof bar - 1); std::cout << bar << '\n'; // requires bar to be null-terminated } Output: WIN Defect reports The following behavior-changing defect reports were applied retroac- tively to previously published C++ standards. DR Applied to Behavior as published Correct behavior LWG 847 C++98 there was no exception safety added strong exception safety guarantee guarantee See also substr returns a substring (public member function) copy copies characters (public member function of std::ba- sic_string_view<CharT,Traits>) copy copies a range of elements to a new location copy_if (function template) (C++11) memcpy copies one buffer to another (function) http://cppreference.com 2024.06.10 std::basic_string::copy(3)
