STD::FILESYSTEM::PATH_ITERATOR(3)

🦋 std::filesystem::path::iterator — libstdc++ Library Functions Manual, section 3 🦋

okay bestie, this is the page for the path-component iterator, and it is lowkey iconic. C++17 energy, no cap. 💅

🌸 NAME 🌸

std::filesystem::path::iterator — an iterator for the components of a path. periodt. ✨

✨ SYNOPSIS ✨

💖 Public Types 💖

using difference_type = std::ptrdiff_t
using iterator_category = std::bidirectional_iterator_tag
using pointer = const path *
using reference = const path &
using value_type = path

that’s the whole type lineup, bestie — difference_type, iterator_category, pointer, reference, and value_type, all sitting pretty. 🎀

💅 Public Member Functions 💅

iterator (const iterator &)=default
reference operator* () const noexcept
iterator & operator++ () noexcept
iterator operator++ (int) noexcept
iterator & operator-- () noexcept
iterator operator-- (int) noexcept
pointer operator-> () const noexcept
iterator & operator= (const iterator &)=default

copy construction and assignment are both =default, and the dereference, arrow, pre/post increment, and pre/post decrement operators are all noexcept where shown. slay. 🔥

void __path_iter_advance (iterator &__i, difference_type __n) noexcept
difference_type __path_iter_distance (const iterator &__first, const iterator &__last) noexcept
bool operator!= (const iterator &__lhs, const iterator &__rhs) noexcept
bool operator== (const iterator &__lhs, const iterator &__rhs) noexcept
class path

friendship goals, fr fr — __path_iter_advance, __path_iter_distance, operator!=, operator==, and the friend class path. 💜

🦋 Detailed Description 🦋

An iterator for the components of a path.

that’s the main character summary, bestie. it’s an iterator for the components of a path — and that’s the whole vibe. no extra lore, no side quests. 🌈

⭐ Since ⭐

C++17. it’s been serving since C++17, and it ate. 👑
