std::isxdigit (3) - Linux Manuals

std::isxdigit: std::isxdigit

Command to display std::isxdigit manual in Linux: $ man 3 std::isxdigit

NAME

std::isxdigit - std::isxdigit

Synopsis

Defined in header <cctype>
int isxdigit( int ch );

Checks if the given character is a hexadecimal numeric character (0123456789abcdefABCDEF).
The behavior is undefined if the value of ch is not representable as unsigned char and is not equal to EOF.

Parameters

ch - character to classify

Return value

Non-zero value if the character is an hexadecimal numeric character, zero otherwise.

Notes

isdigit and isxdigit are the only standard narrow character classification functions that are not affected by the currently installed C locale. although some implementations (e.g. Microsoft in 1252 codepage) may classify additional single-byte characters as digits.
Like all other functions from <cctype>, the behavior of std::isxdigit is undefined if the argument's value is neither representable as unsigned char nor equal to EOF. To use these functions safely with plain chars (or signed chars), the argument should first be converted to unsigned char:

  bool my_isxdigit(char ch)
  {
      return std::isxdigit(static_cast<unsigned char>(ch));
  }

Similarly, they should not be directly used with standard algorithms when the iterator's value type is char or signed char. Instead, convert the value to unsigned char first:

  int count_xdigits(const std::string& s)
  {
      return std::count_if(s.begin(), s.end(),
                        // static_cast<int(*)(int)>(std::isxdigit) // wrong
                        // [](int c){ return std::isxdigit(c); } // wrong
                        // [](char c){ return std::isxdigit(c); } // wrong
                           [](unsigned char c){ return std::isxdigit(c); } // correct
                          );
  }
