Printing to stringstream and retaining formatting #116
Comments
Could you redirect std::cout to a buffer? I'm not sure if this works but it's worth a try. std::stringstream buffer;
std::streambuf* prevcoutbuf = std::cout.rdbuf(buffer.rdbuf());
// print your table
std::cout << yourTable << std::endl;
// Get the table as a string
std::string text = buffer.str();
// Restore original buffer before exiting
std::cout.rdbuf(prevcoutbuf); |

Hello,
I want to be able to print a table to a stringstream but when I do this the special formatting (colour, boldness, etc.) is not retained.
I want to be able to pass around the table as a string in memory. Is there a way to do this?
Thanks,
Mike
