To do: Using the not_eof () to test whether a character is not the end-of-file (EOF) character or is the EOF in C++ programming

To show: How to test whether a character is not the end-of-file (EOF) character or is the EOF using not_eof() C++ programming

// using the char_traits, not_eof() testing the EOF

#include<string>

#include<iostream>

usingnamespace std;

int main(void)

{

char_traits<char>::char_type chr1 = 'w';

char_traits<char>::int_type int1;

int1 = char_traits<char>::to_int_type(chr1);

cout<<"Operation: to_int_type(chr1)"<<endl;

cout<<"The char_type "<<chr1<<" = int_type "<<int1<<endl;

// EOF

char_traits <char>::int_type int2 = char_traits<char>::eof();

cout<<"\nOperation: char_traits<char>::eof()"<<endl;

cout<<"The eof return is: "<<int2<<endl;

// testing for EOF

char_traits <char>::int_type eofTest1, eofTest2;

eofTest1 = char_traits<char>::not_eof(int1);

cout<<"\nOperation: not_eof(int1)"<<endl;

if(!eofTest1)

cout<<"The eofTest1 indicates "<<chr1<<" is an EOF character."<<endl;

else

cout<<"The eofTest1 returns: "<<eofTest1

<<", which is the character: "

<<char_traits<char>::to_char_type(eofTest1)<<endl;

eofTest2 = char_traits<char>::not_eof(int2);

cout<<"\nOperation: not_eof(int2)"<<endl;

if(!eofTest2)

cout<<"The eofTest2 indicates "<<chr1<<" is an EOF character."<<endl;

else

cout<<"The eofTest1 returns: "<<eofTest2

<<", which is the character "

<<char_traits<char>::to_char_type(eofTest2)<<endl;

return 0;

}

Output example:

Operation: to_int_type(chr1)

The char_type w = int_type 119

Operation: char_traits<char>::eof()

The eof return is: -1

Operation: not_eof(int1)

The eofTest1 returns: 119, which is the character: w

Operation: not_eof(int2)

The eofTest2 indicates w is an EOF character.
