Trying to setfill with a character from the ascii table but didnt have much luck. Is this possible? Gave me nothing:

cout << setfill (char(205)) << setw (10);

Gave me error:

cout << setfill ('char(205)') << setw (10);

Thanks

What did you expect it to give? That's not supposed to print anything to the screen.

This, however:

cout << setfill (char(205)) << setw (10);
cout<<42<<endl;

behaves as expected.
