Returns the number of characters that the string has currently allocated space for.

(none)
Capacity of the currently allocated storage, i.e. the storage available for storing elements.
Constant.
Memory locations obtained from the allocator but not available for storing any element are not counted in the allocated storage. Note that the null terminator is not an element of thestd::basic_string.
#include <iomanip>#include <iostream>#include <string> void show_capacity(std::stringconst& s){std::cout<<std::quoted(s)<<" has capacity "<< s.capacity()<<".\n";} int main(){std::string s{"Exemplar"}; show_capacity(s); s+=" is an example string."; show_capacity(s); s.clear(); show_capacity(s); std::cout<<"\nDemonstrate the capacity's growth policy.""\nSize: Capacity: Ratio:\n"<<std::left; std::string g;auto old_cap{g.capacity()}; for(int mark{}; mark!=5;++mark){while(old_cap== g.capacity()) g.push_back('.'); std::cout<<std::setw(7)<< g.size()<<std::setw(11)<< g.capacity()<<std::setw(10)<< g.capacity()/static_cast<float>(old_cap)<<'\n'; old_cap= g.capacity();}}
Possible output:
