class Geo GeoString
template<typename>
class Geo::GeoString
STL string replacement.
Standard length doubling strategy allows for continued concatenation. Contains few of the algorithm functions (find_if, etc) but does have conversion from one string format to another. Also contains a Printf() function that creates a string from a standard C style format specifier, without the user having to know the maximum string length beforehand. There is no such thing as a NULL string representation; default constructor and construction from a NULL pointer both result in an empty string. If you must distinguish between empty and unset, use the Geo::Optional class.

CopyTo(T *, s32) | Copies the content of this string to the given raw character buffer. |
Crop(s32) | Terminates the string at the given position. |
CropAfterLastChar(T) | This will remove the string beyond and including the last character specified if there is one. |
CropBeforeLastChar(T) | This will remove the string up to and including the last character specified if there is one. |
ForceLength(s32) | Directly sets the length of the string to the given value. |
FromUtf8(const char *) | Creates a new string of this format from a narrow string. |

GetString() | Returns a non-const raw pointer to the string. |
IsEmpty() | Returns true if the string is empty. |
operator[](s32) | Element access operator. Do not use this to assign a terminator, or the string will very likely be corrupted. |
operator<(const GeoString &) | Comparison (required to use strings as keys in a map). |
Printf(const T *, ...) | Creates a string from a standard C style format specifier, without the user having to know the maximum string length beforehand. |

Geo::GeoString< T >::~GeoString
public: ~GeoString()
Destructor.
void Geo::GeoString< T >::Clear
public: void Clear()
Clear the string.
s32 Geo::GeoString< T >::CopyTo
public: s32 CopyTo
(
  T * buffer,
  s32 maxCharsToCopy
) const
Copies the content of this string to the given raw character buffer.
Note this does not
copy the NUL terminator to the destination buffer.
Parameters
[in] | buffer | The destination buffer. |
[in] | maxCharsToCopy | If this is less than the length of the string then only this many characters will be copied. |
Returns
The number of characters copied.
bool Geo::GeoString< T >::Crop
public: bool Crop
(
  s32 position
)
Terminates the string at the given position.
If position is less than the current length of the string it returns true, otherwise this is a no-op and returns false.
bool Geo::GeoString< T >::CropAfterLastChar
public: bool CropAfterLastChar
(
  T c
)
This will remove the string beyond and including the last character specified if there is one.
If there isn't one it won't do anything.
Returns
True if the string was cropped.
bool Geo::GeoString< T >::CropBeforeLastChar
public: bool CropBeforeLastChar
(
  T c
)
This will remove the string up to and including the last character specified if there is one.
If there isn't one it won't do anything.
Returns
True if the string was cropped.
void Geo::GeoString< T >::ForceLength
public: void ForceLength
(
  s32 position
)
Directly sets the length of the string to the given value.
Useful for when the internal buffer is directly manipulated (after calling GetString()) and the stored length of the string needs to be kept in-sync.
static GeoString Geo::GeoString< T >::FromUtf8
public: GeoString FromUtf8
(
  const char * utf8
)
Creates a new string of this format from a narrow string.
Geo::GeoString< T >::GeoString
public: GeoString()
Default constructor.
Geo::GeoString< T >::GeoString
public: GeoString
(
  const GeoString & rhs
)
Copy constructor.
Geo::GeoString< T >::GeoString
public: GeoString
(
  s32 capacity
)
Explicit constructor for an initial buffer length.
Geo::GeoString< T >::GeoString
public: GeoString
(
  const T * str,
  s32 n
)
Explicit constructor from an array of size n.
Geo::GeoString< T >::GeoString
public: GeoString
(
  const T * str
)
Explicit constructor from a null-terminated array.
Geo::GeoString< T >::GeoString
public: GeoString
(
  GeoString && rhs
)
Move constructor.
s32 Geo::GeoString< T >::GetCapacity
public: s32 GetCapacity() const
Returns the string capacity.
const T* Geo::GeoString< T >::GetCString
public: const T * GetCString() const
Returns a const raw pointer to the string.
s32 Geo::GeoString< T >::GetLength
public: s32 GetLength() const
Returns the length of the string.
T* Geo::GeoString< T >::GetString
public: T * GetString()
Returns a non-const raw pointer to the string.
bool Geo::GeoString< T >::IsEmpty
public: bool IsEmpty() const
Returns true if the string is empty.
T Geo::GeoString< T >::operator[]
public: T operator[]
(
  s32 idx
) const
Element access operator. Do not use this to assign a terminator, or the string will very likely be corrupted.
bool Geo::GeoString< T >::operator<
public: bool operator<
(
  const GeoString & rhs
) const
Comparison (required to use strings as keys in a map).
static GeoString Geo::GeoString< T >::Printf
public: GeoString Printf
(
  const T * ,
  ...
)
Creates a string from a standard C style format specifier, without the user having to know the maximum string length beforehand.
bool Geo::GeoString< T >::SetCapacity
public: bool SetCapacity
(
  s32 minLength
)
Set the string capacity (increase only).
GeoString Geo::GeoString< T >::Substring
public: GeoString Substring
(
  Geo::s32 idxBegin,
  Geo::s32 idxEnd
) const
Returns a subsection of the string.
Parameters
[in] | idxBegin | Index of first character of substring. |
[in] | idxEnd | Index of 'one past end' of substring. May specify -1 to mean 'end of string'. |
void Geo::GeoString< T >::Swap
public: void Swap
(
  GeoString & other
)
Swap places with other.
GeoString<char> Geo::GeoString< T >::ToUtf8
public: GeoString< char > ToUtf8() const
Returns a new narrow string from this one.
