std::collate_byname(3)

NAME
std::collate_byname - std::collate_byname

Synopsis
   Defined in header <locale>
   template< class CharT >
   class collate_byname : public std::collate<CharT>;
   std::collate_byname is a std::collate facet which encapsulates locale-specific
   collation (comparison) and hashing of strings. Just like std::collate, it can be
   imbued in std::regex and applied, by means of std::locale::operator(), directly to
   all standard algorithms that expect a string comparison predicate.

Specializations
   The standard library is guaranteed to provide the following specializations:
   Defined in header <locale>
   std::collate_byname<char> locale-specific collation of multibyte strings
   std::collate_byname<wchar_t> locale-specific collation of wide strings

Member functions
   constructor constructs a new collate_byname facet
                 (public member function)
   destructor destroys a collate_byname facet
                 (protected member function) std::collate_byname::collate_byname
   explicit collate_byname( const char* name, std::size_t refs = 0 );
   explicit collate_byname( const std::string& name, std::size_t refs = (since C++11)
   0 );
   Constructs a new std::collate_byname facet for a locale with name.
   refs is used for resource management: if refs == 0, the implementation destroys the
   facet, when the last std::locale object holding it is destroyed. Otherwise, the
   object is not destroyed.

Parameters
   name - the name of the locale
   refs - the number of references that link to the facet std::collate_byname::~collate_byname
   protected:
   ~collate_byname();
   Destroys the facet. Inherited from std::collate

Member types
   Member type Definition
   char_type CharT
   string_type std::basic_string<CharT>

Member functions
   compare invokes do_compare
             (public member function of std::collate<CharT>)
   transform invokes do_transform
             (public member function of std::collate<CharT>)
   hash invokes do_hash
             (public member function of std::collate<CharT>)

Protected member functions
   do_compare compares two strings using this facet's collation rules
   [virtual] (virtual protected member function of std::collate<CharT>)
   do_transform transforms a string so that collation can be replaced by comparison
   [virtual] (virtual protected member function of std::collate<CharT>)
   do_hash generates an integer hash value using this facet's collation rules
   [virtual] (virtual protected member function of std::collate<CharT>)

Notes
   Collation order is the dictionary order: the position of the letter in the national
   alphabet (its equivalence class) has higher priority than its case or variant.
   Within an equivalence class, lowercase characters collate before their uppercase
   equivalents and locale-specific order may apply to the characters with diacritics.
   In some locales, groups of characters compare as single collation units. For
   example, "ch" in Czech follows "h" and precedes "i", and "dzs" in Hungarian follows
   "dz" and precedes "g".
