istream_iterator & operator ++ ( ) ;
(1)
istream_iterator operator ++ ( int ) ;
(2)

Reads a value from the underlying stream (using its operator>> ) and stores it into the iterator object. If the read fails (the underlying stream's fail() returns true ), the iterator becomes the end-of-stream iterator.

The behavior is undefined if the iterator is end-of-stream iterator.

Parameters

(none)

Return value

1) * this
2) An istream_iterator that holds an unchanged value.

Exceptions

May throw implementation-defined exceptions.

Defect reports

The following behavior-changing defect reports were applied retroactively to previously published C++ standards.

DR Applied to Behavior as published Correct behavior
LWG 260 C++98 the return type of operator ++ ( int ) was istream_iterator& corrected to istream_iterator
LWG 788 C++98 the underlying stream's operator void * was
used to determine whether the read fails, but it
was removed by the resolution of LWG issue 468
uses fail() instead
LWG 838 C++98 it was unclear whether end-of-stream iterators can be incremented the behavior is undefined
