Format this object to the specified output stream and return a reference to stream.

Synopsis

Declared in <balcl_typeinfo.h>

std::ostream&
print(
    std::ostream& stream,
    int level = 0,
    int spacesPerLevel = 4) const;

Description

Format this object to the specified output stream at the (absolute value of) the optionally specified indentation level and return a reference to stream. If level is specified, optionally specify spacesPerLevel, the number of spaces per indentation level for this object. If level is negative, suppress indentation of the first line. If stream is not valid on entry, this operation has no effect. The behavior is undefined if spacesPerLevel is negative. Note that the precondition on spacesPerLevel is atypical for the print aspect; a negative spacesPerLevel typically indicates that the entire output should be formatted on one line.

Return Value

a reference to stream
