std::shared_ptr
 
template <class T, class U, class V>
std::basic_ostream<U, V>& operator<<(std::basic_ostream<U, V>& os, const std::shared_ptr<T>& ptr);

Inserts the value of the pointer stored in ptr into the output stream os

Equivalent to os << ptr.get().

Parameters

os - a std::basic_ostream to insert ptr into
ptr - the data to be inserted into os

Return value

os

Example

Run this code
#include <iostream>
#include <memory>
 
class Foo {};
 
int main()
{
    auto sp = std::make_shared<Foo>();
    std::cout << sp << '\n';
    std::cout << sp.get() << '\n';
}

Possible output: 

0x6d9028
0x6d9028
