NAME

std::default_searcher - std::default_searcher

Synopsis

Defined in header <functional>
template< class ForwardIt, class BinaryPredicate = std::equal_to<> > (since C++17)
class default_searcher;

A class suitable for use with Searcher overload of std::search that delegates the
search operation to the pre-C++17 standard library's std::search.

default_searcher is CopyConstructible and CopyAssignable.

Member functions

std::default_searcher::default_searcher

default_searcher( ForwardIt pat_first,
(since C++17)
ForwardIt pat_last, (until C++20)

BinaryPredicate pred = BinaryPredicate());
constexpr default_searcher( ForwardIt pat_first,

ForwardIt pat_last, (since C++20)

BinaryPredicate pred = BinaryPredicate());

Constructs a default_searcher by storing copies of pat_first, pat_last, and pred

Parameters

pat_first, pat_last - a pair of iterators designating the string to be searched for
pred - a callable object used to determine equality

Exceptions

Any exceptions thrown by the copy constructors of BinaryPredicate or ForwardIt.

std::default_searcher::operator()

template< class ForwardIt2 >
(since C++17)
std::pair<ForwardIt2, ForwardIt2> (until C++20)

operator()( ForwardIt2 first, ForwardIt2 last ) const;
template< class ForwardIt2 >

constexpr std::pair<ForwardIt2, ForwardIt2> (since C++20)

operator()( ForwardIt2 first, ForwardIt2 last ) const;

The member function called by the Searcher overload of std::search to perform a
search with this searcher.

Returns a pair of iterators i, j, where i is std::search(first, last, pat_first,
pat_last, pred) and j is std::next(i, std::distance(pat_first, pat_last)) unless
std::search returned last (no match), in which case j equals last as well.

Parameters

first, last - a pair of iterators designating the string to be examined

Return value

A pair of iterators to the first and one past last positions in [first, last) where
a subsequence that compares equal to [pat_first, pat_last) as defined by pred is
located, or a pair of copies of last otherwise.

Example

// Run this code

#include <iostream>
#include <string>
#include <algorithm>
#include <functional>

int main()
{
std::string in = "Lorem ipsum dolor sit amet, consectetur adipiscing elit,"
" sed do eiusmod tempor incididunt ut labore et dolore magna aliqua";
std::string needle = "pisci";
auto it = std::search(in.begin(), in.end(),
std::default_searcher(
needle.begin(), needle.end()));
if(it != in.end())
std::cout << "The string " << needle << " found at offset "
<< it - in.begin() << '\n';
else
std::cout << "The string " << needle << " not found\n";
}

Output:

The string pisci found at offset 43
