std::basic_...ic_iostream(3)

💅 std::basic_...ic_iostream(3) 💅

okay so bestie, welcome to the std::basic_...ic_iostream(3) page from the C++ Standard Libary manual 💖 — yes, that’s the manual name right up top, and today’s main character is the destructor std::basic_iostream::~basic_iostream. slay.

💖 NAME 💖

• std::basic_iostream::~basic_iostream — the destructor’s name, iconic.
• std::basic_iostream::~basic_iostream — yep, it’s listed twice in the NAME section. no cap, that’s just how it is.

✨ Synopsis ✨

virtual ~basic_iostream();

Destructs the input/output stream. periodt 💅

🌸 Notes 🌸

ngl, this destructor does not perform any operation on the underlying stream buffer (rdbuf()) — like, zero ops, bestie.

The destructors of the derived streams such as std::basic_fstream and std::basic_stringstream are the ones responsible for calling the destructors of the stream buffers. so they’re carrying that task, not this destructor 🫶
