String assignment
Assigns a new value to the string, replacing its current contents.
(See member function assign for additional assignment options).
Parameters
-
str
-
A string object, whose value is either copied (1) or moved (5) if different from *this (if moved, str is left in an unspecified but valid state).
-
s
-
Pointer to a null-terminated sequence of characters.
The sequence is copied as the new value for the string.
-
c
-
A character.
The string value is set to a single copy of this character (the string length becomes 1).
-
il
-
An initializer_list object.
These objects are automatically constructed from initializer list declarators.
The characters are copied, in the same order.
Return Value*this

// string assigning
#include <iostream>
#include <string>
int main ()
{
std::string str1, str2, str3;
str1 = "Test string: "; // c-string
str2 = 'x'; // single character
str3 = str1 + str2; // string
std::cout << str3 << '\n';
return 0;
}
Output:
Complexity
Unspecified.
Unspecified, but generally linear in the new
string length
(and constant for the
move version
).
Iterator validity Any iterators, pointers and references related to this object may be invalidated.
Data races The object is modified.
The move assignment (5) modifies str.
Exception safety For the move assignment (5), the function does not throw exceptions (no-throw guarantee).
In all other cases, there are no effects in case an exception is thrown (strong guarantee).
If the resulting string length would exceed the max_size, a length_error exception is thrown.
A bad_alloc exception is thrown if the function needs to allocate storage and fails.
