.SH "NAME"
FBB::StringLine \- extracting lines using operator>>
.PP 
.SH "SYNOPSIS"
\fB#include <bobcat/stringline>\fP
.br 

.PP 
.SH "DESCRIPTION"
The standard \fIoperator>>(std::istream &, std::string &)\fP string
extracion operator extracts the first `word\(cq\& from a stream\&. In cases where the
intent it to extract lines from the stream this operator cannot be used, but
\fIgetline(std::istream &, std::string &)\fP is usually called\&.
.PP 
However, \fIgetline\fP is not called by many tools of generic algorithms,
like the \fIistream_iterator\fP\&.
.PP 
The class (actually: struct) \fIStringLine\fP was simply derived from
\fIstd::string\fP, and defines its own \fIoperator>>\fP, reading the next line
from the specified \fIstd::istream\fP\&.
.PP 
.SH "NAMESPACE"
\fBFBB\fP
.br 
All constructors, members, operators and manipulators, mentioned in this
man\-page, are defined in the namespace \fBFBB\fP\&.
.PP 
.SH "INHERITS FROM"
\fIstd::string\fP
.PP 
.SH "CONSTRUCTORS"
\fIStringLine\fP is an empty shell around \fIstd::string\fP\&. It does not
explicitly define constructors\&.
.PP 
Copy and move constructors (and assignment operators) are available\&.
.PP 
.SH "OVERLOADED OPERATOR"
.IP o 
\fBstd::istream &operator>>(std::istream &in, StringLine &str)\fP:
.br 
The extraction operator returns the next line on \fIin\fP in \fIstr\fP,
calling \fIgetline(std::istream &, std::string &)\fP\&.

.PP 
.SH "MEMBER FUNCTIONS"
All members of \fBstd::string\fP are
available, as \fBFBB::StringLine\fP inherits from these classes\&.
.PP 
.SH "EXAMPLE"
The following example extracts all lines from \fIstd::cin\fP and adds them
to the \fIstd::vector<std::string> lines\fP:
.nf 

#include <iostream>
#include <algorithm>
#include <iterator>
#include <vector>
#include <bobcat/stringline>

using namespace std;
using namespace FBB;

int main()
{
    vector<string> lines;

    copy(
        istream_iterator<StringLine>(cin), istream_iterator<StringLine>(),
        back_inserter(lines)
    );
}
        
.fi 

.PP 
.SH "FILES"
\fIbobcat/stringline\fP \- defines the class interface and
\fIoperator>>\fP\&.
.PP 
There are \fIStringLine\fP object files in the Bobcat library,
so linking to Bobcat when using \fIStringLine\fP is not necessary\&.
