NAME¶
FBB::lm - Manipulator setting left margins of OFoldStream objects
SYNOPSIS¶
#include <bobcat/ofoldstream> or
#include <bobcat/ofoldstreambuf>
Linking option:
-lbobcat
DESCRIPTION¶
The
lm class implements a manipulator that can be inserted into
OFoldStream objects to set the stream’s left margin to a
requested value.
Depending on the tab-setting of the
OFoldStream the inserted value
represents the number of blank space characters or the number of
tab-characters that will be used for the left margin.
The request will be processed at the next newline character or
std::flush
or
std::endl manipulator that is inserted into the stream. If a line is
still once an
lm object and a
flush manipulator are inserted
into the stream then the new left margin will be effective at the next word
inserted into that line (cf., the example section below).
A
bad_cast exception is thrown when the manipulator is inserted into an
ostream that is not using a
OFoldStreambuf buffer.
