constexpr const_pointer data() const noexcept;
(since C++17)Returns a pointer to the underlying character array. The pointer is such that the range [
data(),
data() + size())
is valid and the values in it correspond to the values of the view.
(none)
[edit] Return valueA pointer to the underlying character array.
[edit] ComplexityConstant.
[edit] NotesUnlike std::basic_string::data() and string literals, std::basic_string_view::data()
returns a pointer to a buffer that is not necessarily null-terminated, for example a substring view (e.g. from remove_suffix
). Therefore, it is typically a mistake to pass data()
to a routine that takes just a const CharT* and expects a null-terminated string.
#include <cstring> #include <cwchar> #include <iostream> #include <string> #include <string_view> int main() { std::wstring_view wcstr_v = L"xyzzy"; std::cout << std::wcslen(wcstr_v.data()) << '\n'; // OK: the underlying character array is null-terminated char array[3] = {'B', 'a', 'r'}; std::string_view array_v(array, sizeof array); // std::cout << std::strlen(array_v.data()) << '\n'; // error: the underlying character array is not null-terminated std::string str(array_v.data(), array_v.size()); // OK std::cout << std::strlen(str.data()) << '\n'; // OK: the underlying character array of a std::string is always null-terminated }
