Unicode String Buffer

These functions provide unicode string buffers management.

The Unicode String Buffer data type is designed to be a mutable string, allowing to append, prepend or insert a string to a buffer.

Typedef Documentation

Type for a string buffer.


Function Documentation

Appends a string to a buffer, reallocating as necessary.

Parameters:
bufThe string buffer to append to.
strThe string to append.
Returns:
EINA_TRUE on success, EINA_FALSE on failure.

This function appends str to buf. It computes the length of str, so is slightly slower than eina_ustrbuf_append_length(). If the length is known beforehand, consider using that variant. If buf can't append it, EINA_FALSE is returned, otherwise EINA_TRUE is returned.

See also:
eina_ustrbuf_append()
eina_ustrbuf_append_length()
Since :
2.3

Appends a character to a string buffer, reallocating as necessary.

Parameters:
bufThe string buffer to append to.
cThe char to append.
Returns:
EINA_TRUE on success, EINA_FALSE on failure.

This function inserts c to buf. If it can not insert it, EINA_FALSE is returned, otherwise EINA_TRUE is returned.

Since :
2.3

Appends an escaped string to a buffer, reallocating as necessary.

Parameters:
bufThe string buffer to append to.
strThe string to append.
Returns:
EINA_TRUE on success, EINA_FALSE on failure.

This function appends the escaped string str to buf. If str can not be appended, EINA_FALSE is returned, otherwise, EINA_TRUE is returned.

Since :
2.3
Eina_Bool eina_ustrbuf_append_length ( Eina_UStrbuf buf,
const Eina_Unicode str,
size_t  length 
)

Appends a string of exact length to a buffer, reallocating as necessary.

Parameters:
bufThe string buffer to append to.
strThe string to append.
lengthThe exact length to use.
Returns:
EINA_TRUE on success, EINA_FALSE on failure.

This function appends str to buf. str must be of size at most length. It is slightly faster than eina_ustrbuf_append() as it does not compute the size of str. It is useful when dealing with strings of known size, such as eina_strngshare. If buf can't append it, EINA_FALSE is returned, otherwise EINA_TRUE is returned.

Since :
2.3
Eina_Bool eina_ustrbuf_append_n ( Eina_UStrbuf buf,
const Eina_Unicode str,
size_t  maxlen 
)

Appends a string to a buffer, reallocating as necessary, limited by the given length.

Parameters:
bufThe string buffer to append to.
strThe string to append.
maxlenThe maximum number of characters to append.
Returns:
EINA_TRUE on success, EINA_FALSE on failure.

This function appends at most maxlen characters of str to buf. It can't appends more than the length of str. It computes the length of str, so is slightly slower than eina_ustrbuf_append_length(). If the length is known beforehand, consider using that variant (maxlen should then be checked so that it is greater than the size of str). If str can not be appended, EINA_FALSE is returned, otherwise, EINA_TRUE is returned.

Since :
2.3

Frees a string buffer.

Parameters:
bufThe string buffer to free.

Since :
2.3
Eina_Bool eina_ustrbuf_insert ( Eina_UStrbuf buf,
const Eina_Unicode str,
size_t  pos 
)

Inserts a string to a buffer, reallocating as necessary.

Parameters:
bufThe string buffer to insert.
strThe string to insert.
posThe position to insert the string.
Returns:
EINA_TRUE on success, EINA_FALSE on failure.

This function inserts str to buf at position pos. It computes the length of str, so is slightly slower than eina_ustrbuf_insert_length(). If the length is known beforehand, consider using that variant. If buf can't insert it, EINA_FALSE is returned, otherwise EINA_TRUE is returned.

Since :

Returns:
EINA_TRUE on success, EINA_FALSE on failure.

This function inserts c to buf at position pos. If buf can't append it, EINA_FALSE is returned, otherwise EINA_TRUE is returned.

Since :

Parameters:
bufThe string buffer to insert to.
strThe string to insert.
posThe position to insert the string.
Returns:

strThe string to insert.
lengthThe exact length to use.
posThe position to insert the string.
Returns:
EINA_TRUE on success, EINA_FALSE on failure.

This function inserts str to buf. str must be of size at most length. It is slightly faster than eina_ustrbuf_insert() as it does not compute the size of str. It is useful when dealing with strings of known size, such as eina_strngshare. If buf can't insert it, EINA_FALSE is returned, otherwise EINA_TRUE is returned.

Eina_Bool eina_ustrbuf_insert_n ( Eina_UStrbuf buf,
const Eina_Unicode str,
size_t  maxlen,

Parameters:
bufThe string buffer to insert to.
strThe string to insert.

Returns:
EINA_TRUE on success, EINA_FALSE on failure.

This function inserts str ot buf at position pos, with at most maxlen bytes. The number of inserted characters can not be greater than the length of str. It computes the length of str, so is slightly slower than eina_ustrbuf_insert_length(). If the length is known beforehand, consider using that variant (maxlen should then be checked so that it is greater than the size of str). If str can not be inserted, EINA_FALSE is returned, otherwise, EINA_TRUE is returned.

This function returns the length of buf.

Since :
2.3

Since :
2.3

Retrieves a pointer to the contents of a string buffer.

Parameters:
bufThe string buffer.
Returns:
The current string in the string buffer.
