std::experimental::basic_string_view<CharT,Traits>::operator[]

Returns a const reference to the character at specified location pos.

# Declarations

constexpr const_reference operator[](size_type pos) const;

(library fundamentals TS)

# Parameters

# Return value

Const reference to the requested character

# Notes

Unlike std::basic_string::operator[], basic_string_view::operator has undefined behavior instead of returning CharT().

# Example

#include <iostream>
#include <experimental/string_view>
int main()
{
    std::string str = "Exemplar";
    std::experimental::string_view v = str;
    std::cout << v[2] << '\n';
//  v[2] = 'y'; // Error: cannot modify through a string view
    str[2] = 'y';
    std::cout << v[2] << '\n';
}
