c++ - std::cout << std::cin 做什么？

Question

我是 C++ 的新手，并且正在搞乱我学到的一些东西。所以我尝试了以下代码:

#include <iostream>
int main() {
    std::cout << std::cin;
}

所以我预计代码会返回错误，但得到的却是我认为的内存地址 (0x6fccc408)。此外，当多次运行它时，我得到了相同的内存地址，即使在重新启动 cmd 之后也是如此。这个内存地址到底意味着什么？

Answer 1

看起来您使用的是 C++98 或 C++03。在那些版本中， cin 可以隐式转换为 void* 所以你看到的是这种转换。

如果您使用 C++11，它摆脱了隐式 void* 转换，而是实现了显式转换为 bool，这将产生类似
