ios_base defines several member types:

a type failure, defined as either a class derived fromsystem_error or a synonym for a class derived from system_error;
- [(1.2)](#ios.base.general-1.2)
a class Init;
- [(1.3)](#ios.base.general-1.3)
three bitmask types, fmtflags, iostate, and openmode;

an enumerated type, seekdir[.](#ios.base.general-1.sentence-1)

- [(2.1)](#ios.base.general-2.1)
state information that reflects the integrity of the stream buffer;
- [(2.2)](#ios.base.general-2.2)
control information that influences how to interpret (format) input

An implementation is permitted to define ios_base​::​failure as a synonym for a class with equivalent functionality
to class ios_base​::​failure shown in this subclause[.](#ios.failure-1.sentence-1)
[*Note [1](#ios.failure-note-1)*:

values of ec that identify the specific reason for the failure[.](#ios.failure-2.sentence-1)
[*Note [2](#ios.failure-note-2)*:
Errors arising from the operating system would typically be reported assystem_category() errors with an error value of the error number
