📦 version 2024.07.05, in nixpkgs unstable, opensuse-leap 16.0

💖 std::basic_regex::imbue 💖

okay bestie, this is the std::basic_regex::imbue(3) page from the C++ Standard Libary manual, and we’re gonna get you comfy with it. no cap, it’s a tiny one. 🫶

✨ NAME ✨

std::basic_regex::imbue — literally std::basic_regex::imbue. that’s the whole name vibe. 💅

🌀 Synopsis 🌀

locale_type imbue( locale_type loc );  (since C++11)

okay so this one replaces the current locale with loc. and bestie, important caveat: the regular expression does not match any character sequence after the call. so like, after you call it, don’t expect it to match anything. 😭

it effectively calls traits_i.imbue(loc), where traits_i is a default initialized instance of the type Traits stored within the regular expression object. slay, that’s the mechanism. ✨

🎀 Parameters 🎀

  • loc — new locale to use. that’s it, that’s the parameter. 🍓

💖 Return value 💖

it gives you the locale before the call to this function. effectively returns the result of the expression traits_i.imbue(loc). iconic. 👑

🙈 Exceptions 🙈

May throw implementation-defined exceptions. so yeah, implementation-defined, keep that in mind. 💀
