Detailed Description

A char string. Any multibyte encoding can be used. If the encoding is unknown, assume it is UTF-8.

Member Enumeration Documentation

◆ anonymous enum

anonymous enum : size_t

Enumerator
MaximumStringLength	The design of the ON_String and ON_wString classes supports string lengths up to 0xFFFFFFFEU = 4,294,967,294 This value is used for both ON_String and ON_wString.

◆ Encoding

enum ON_String::Encoding : unsigned int

strong

Enumerator
Unset	Encoding not set.
Unknown	Encoding not known or cannot be determined.
ASCII	All byte values are in the range 0 to 0x7F (127)
UTF8	The sequence of byte values could be a UTF-8 encode string. UTF-8 extends ASCII encoding.
SloppyUTF8	The sequence of byte values could be a UTF-8 encoding with oversized encodings or surrogate pair code points.
BIG5andASCII	The sequence of byte values could be a BIG5 encode string that may also contain single byte ASCII code points. BIG5 is a double byte encoding and the first byte always has the high bit set.

Parameters: format - [in] Format control. Positional parameters of the form N$x where N >= 1 and x is the standard format specification are supported. Avoid using S (capital S). See the Remarks for details. ... - [in] arguments for replaceable items in the format string. Returns: True if successful. False if the string is too long or the format string is not valid. Remarks: When using Microsoft's compiler and other compilers that provide similar locale support, the locale is the invariant culture locale returned by ON_Locale::InvariantCulture::LocalePtr().

The way Windows handles the S (capital S) format parameter depends on locale and code page settings. It is strongly recommended that you never use S to include any string that may possibly contain elements with values > 127.

Description: A platform independent, secure, culture invariant way to format a char string. This function is provide to be used when it is critical that the formatting be platform independent, secure and culture invariant. Parameters: buffer - [out] not null buffer_capacity - [in] > 0 Number of char elements in buffer. sFormat - [in] Avoid using S (capital S). See the Remarks for details. ... - [in] Returns: >= 0: The number of char elements written to buffer[], not including the null terminator. A null terminator is always added (buffer[returned value] = 0). The last element of buffer[] is always set to zero (buffer[buffer_capacity-1] = 0). < 0: failure: If buffer is not null and buffer_capacity > 0, then buffer[0] = 0 and buffer[buffer_capacity-1] = 0; Remarks: The way Windows handles the S (capital S) format parameter depends on locale and code page settings.

map_type - [in] selects the mapping

string - [in] input string to map.

element_count - [in] The number of char elements to map from input string[].

If element_count < 1, then string[] must be null terminated and ON_wString::Length(string)+1 elements are mapped. The +1 insures the output is null terminated.

mapped_string - [out] The result of the mapping is returned in mapped_string[].

const ON_String ON_String::ToUTF8 ( ) const

Description: Make an educated guess at the encoding and convert the string to UTF-8 encoding. Returns: If the string encoding could be determined and parsed, a UTF-8 encoded string is returned. Otherwise EmptyString is returned.

◆ ToUTF8() [2/2]

static const ON_String ON_String::ToUTF8	(	const char *	buffer,
		int	buffer_length
	)

static

Description: Make an educated guess at the encoding and convert the string to UTF-8 encoding. Returns: If the string encoding could be determined and parsed, a UTF-8 encoded string is returned. Otherwise EmptyString is returned.

◆ TrimLeft()

void ON_String::TrimLeft ( const char * = nullptr )

◆ TrimLeftAndRight()

void ON_String::TrimLeftAndRight ( const char * = nullptr )

◆ TrimRight()

void ON_String::TrimRight ( const char * = nullptr )

◆ UnsignedLength() [1/2]

unsigned int ON_String::UnsignedLength ( ) const

Returns: number of char elements in string not including the null terminator.

◆ UnsignedLength() [2/2]

static unsigned int ON_String::UnsignedLength ( const char * string )

static

Returns: number of nonzero elements in string before the first null terminator. If string is nullptr, 0 is returned.

◆ WildCardMatch() [1/2]

bool ON_String::WildCardMatch ( const char * ) const

Description: Simple case sensitive wildcard matching. A question mark (?) in the pattern matches a single character. An asterisk (*) in the pattern matches zero or more occurrences of any character.

Parameters: pattern - [in] pattern string where ? and * are wild cards.

Returns: true if the string matches the wild card pattern.

◆ WildCardMatch() [2/2]

bool ON_String::WildCardMatch ( const unsigned char * ) const

◆ WildCardMatchNoCase() [1/2]

bool ON_String::WildCardMatchNoCase ( const char * ) const

Description: Simple case insensitive wildcard matching. A question mark (?) in the pattern matches a single character. An asterisk (*) in the pattern matches zero or more occurrences of any character.

Parameters: pattern - [in] pattern string where ? and * are wild cards.

Returns: true if the string matches the wild card pattern.

◆ WildCardMatchNoCase() [2/2]

bool ON_String::WildCardMatchNoCase ( const unsigned char * ) const

◆ ByteOrderMark

const ON_String ON_String::ByteOrderMark

static

Even though a char string has endian independent byte order, it is valid for UTF-8 encoded text to begin with the UTF-8 encoding of U+FEFF. A UTF-8 BOM is sometimes used to mark a char string as UTF-8 encoded. A UTF-8 BOM can occur when UTF-16 and UTF-32 encoded text with a byte order mark is converted to UTF-8 encoded text. Conversely a UTF-8 BOM is sometimes used when UTF-8 encode text will be converted to UTF-16/UTF-32 encoded text and a BOM is desired in the result.
