std::basic_istream<CharT,Traits>::tellg - cppreference.com

Returns input position indicator of the current associated streambuf object.

Behaves as UnformattedInputFunction, except that gcount() is not affected. After constructing and checking the sentry object, if fail() == true, returns pos_type(-1). Otherwise, returns rdbuf()->pubseekoff(0, std::ios_base::cur, std::ios_base::in).

[edit] Parameters

(none)

[edit] Return value

The current position of the get pointer on success, pos_type(-1) on failure.

[edit] Exceptionsfailure

if an error occurred (the error state flag is not

goodbit

) and

exceptions()

is set to throw for that state.

If an internal operation throws an exception, it is caught and badbit is set. If exceptions() is set for badbit, the exception is rethrown.

[edit] Example
#include <iostream>
#include <sstream>
#include <string>
 
int main()
{
    std::string str = "Hello, world";
    std::istringstream in(str);
    std::string word;
    in >> word;
    std::cout << "After reading the word \"" << word
              << "\" tellg() returns " << in.tellg() << '\n';
}

Output:

After reading the word "Hello," tellg() returns 6
