- The target string will grow as necessary to accept the new string.
Implemented in scfString.
virtual void iString::Reclaim | ( | ) | [pure virtual] |
Set string buffer capacity to hold exactly the current content.
- Remarks:
- If the string length is greater than zero, then the buffer's capacity will be adjusted to exactly that size. If the string length is zero, then the implementation may shrink the allocation so that it only holds the implicit null terminator, or it may free the string's memory completely.
- Deprecated:
- Use ShrinkBestFit() instead.
Implemented in scfString.
virtual void iString::Replace | ( | const char * | str, | |
size_t | count = (size_t)-1 | |||
) | [pure virtual] |
Replace contents of this string with the contents of another.
- Parameters:
-
str String from which new content of this string will be copied. count Number of characters to copy. If (size_t)-1 is specified, then all characters will be copied.
Implemented in scfString.
virtual void iString::Replace | ( | const iString * | str, | |
size_t | count = (size_t)-1 | |||
) | [pure virtual] |
Replace contents of this string with the contents of another.
- Parameters:
-
str String from which new content of this string will be copied. count Number of characters to copy. If (size_t)-1 is specified, then all characters will be copied.
Implemented in scfString.
virtual void iString::ReplaceAll | ( | const char * | search, | |
const char * | replacement | |||
) | [pure virtual] |
Find all occurrences of search
in this string and replace them with replacement
.
Implemented in scfString.
virtual void iString::SetAt | ( | size_t | n, | |
char | iChar | |||
) | [pure virtual] |
Set the n'th character.
- Remarks:
- The n'th character position must be a valid position in the string. You can not expand the string by setting a character beyond the end of string.
Implemented in scfString.
virtual void iString::SetCapacity | ( | size_t | NewSize | ) | [pure virtual] |
Advise the string that it should allocate enough space to hold up to NewSize characters.
- Remarks:
- After calling this method, the string's capacity will be at least NewSize + 1 (one for the implicit null terminator). Never shrinks capacity. If you need to actually reclaim memory, then use Free() or Reclaim().
Implemented in scfString.
virtual void iString::SetGrowsBy | ( | size_t | ) | [pure virtual] |
Advise the string that it should grow its allocated buffer by approximately this many bytes when more space is required.
This is an optimization to avoid excessive memory reallocation and heap management, which can be quite slow.
- Remarks:
- This value is only a suggestion. The actual value by which it grows may be rounded up or down to an implementation-dependent allocation multiple.
If the value is zero, then the internal buffer grows exponentially by doubling its size, rather than by fixed increments.
Implemented in scfString.
virtual void iString::ShrinkBestFit | ( | ) | [pure virtual] |
Set string buffer capacity to hold exactly the current content.
- Remarks:
- If the string length is greater than zero, then the buffer's capacity will be adjusted to exactly that size. If the string length is zero, then the implementation may shrink the allocation so that it only holds the implicit null terminator, or it may free the string's memory completely.
Implemented in scfString.
Copy and return a portion of this string.
- Parameters:
-
start Start position of slice (zero-based). len Number of characters in slice.
- Returns:
- The indicated string slice.
Implemented in scfString.
virtual void iString::SubString | ( | iString * | sub, | |
size_t | start, | |||
size_t | len | |||
) | const [pure virtual] |
Copy a portion of this string.
- Parameters:
-
sub String which will receive the indicated substring copy. start Start position of slice (zero-based). len Number of characters in slice.
- Remarks:
- Use this method instead of Slice() for cases where you expect to extract many substrings in a tight loop, and want to avoid the overhead of allocation of a new string object for each operation. Simply re-use 'sub' for each operation.
Implemented in scfString.
virtual void iString::Truncate | ( | size_t | Len | ) | [pure virtual] |
Truncate the string.
- Parameters:
-
Len The number of characters to which the string should be truncated (possibly 0).
- Remarks:
- Will only make a string shorter; will never extend it. This method may or may not reclaim memory depending upon the implementation. If you positively need to reclaim memory after truncating the string, then invoke Reclaim().
Implemented in scfString.
virtual void iString::Upcase | ( | ) | [pure virtual] |
