NAME

FBB::lm - Manipulator setting left margins of OFoldStream objects

SYNOPSIS

#include <bobcat/ofoldstream> or
#include <bobcat/ofoldstreambuf>
Linking option: -lbobcat

DESCRIPTION

The lm class implements a manipulator that can be inserted into OFoldStream objects to set the stream's left margin to a requested value.

Depending on the tab-setting of the OFoldStream the inserted value represents the number of blank space characters or the number of tab-characters that will be used for the left margin.

The request will be processed at the next newline character or std::flush or std::endl manipulator that is inserted into the stream. If a line is still once an lm object and a flush manipulator are inserted into the stream then the new left margin will be effective at the next word inserted into that line (cf., the example section below).

A bad_cast exception is thrown when the manipulator is inserted into an ostream that is not using a OFoldStreambuf buffer.

         return 0;
