time_put_base time_put
Time formatting facet for output.
#include <locale>
template <class charT, class OutputIterator =
ostreambuf_iterator<charT> >
class time_put;
The time_put facet provides facilities for formatted output of date/time values. The member function of time_put take a date/time in the form of a struct tm and translate this into character string representation.

typedef charT char_type;
typedef OutputIterator iter_type;
explicit time_put(size_t = 0);

protected:

virtual iter_type do_put(iter_type, ios_base&,
char_type, const tm*,
char, char) const;
};
char_type
Type of character the facet is instantiated on.
iter_type
Type of iterator used to scan the character buffer.
explicit time_put(size_t refs = 0)
Construct a time_put facet. If the refs argument is 0 then destruction of the object is delegated to the locale, or locales, containing it. This allows the user to ignore lifetime management issues. On the other had, if refs is 1 then the object must be explicitly deleted; the locale will not do so. In this case, the object can be maintained across the lifetime of multiple locales.
~time_put(); // virtual and protected
Destroy the facet
static locale::id id;
Unique identifier for this type of facet.
iter_type
put(iter_type s, ios_base& f,
char_type fill, const tm* tmb,
const charT* pattern, const charT* pat_end) const;
Creates a character string representing the Date/Time contained in tmb. The format of the string is determined by a sequence of format modifiers contained in the range [pattern,pat_end). These modifiers are from the same set as those use by the strftime function and apply in exactly the same way. The resulting string is written out to the buffer pointed to by the iterator s. See the Table 1 below for a description of strftime formatting characters.
The fill argument is used for any padding.
Returns an iterator pointing one past the last character written.
iter_type
put(iter_type s, ios_base& f, char_type fill,
const tm* tmb, char format, char modifier = 0) const;
Calls the protected virtual do_put function.
virtual iter_type
do_put(iter_type s, ios_base&,
char_type fill, const tm* t,
char format, char modifier) const;
Writes out a character string representation of the Date/Time contained in t. The string is formatted according the specifier format and modifier modifier. These values are interpreted in exactly the same way that the strftime function interprets its format and modifier flags. See the Table 1 below for a description of strftime formatting characters.
The fill argument is used for any padding.
Returns an iterator pointing one past the last character written.
