Public Methods

 ACE_SString (ACE_Allocator *alloc = 0)
 Default constructor.

 ACE_SString (const char *s, ACE_Allocator *alloc = 0)
 Constructor that copies <s> into dynamically allocated memory.

 ACE_SString (const char *s, size_t len, ACE_Allocator *alloc = 0)
 Constructor that copies <len> chars of <s> into dynamically allocated memory (will NUL terminate the result).

 ACE_SString (const ACE_SString &)
 Copy constructor.

 ACE_SString (char c, ACE_Allocator *alloc = 0)
 Constructor that copies <c> into dynamically allocated memory.

 ~ACE_SString (void)
 Default dtor.

char operator[] (size_t slot) const
 Return the <slot'th> character in the string (doesn't perform bounds checking).

char& operator[] (size_t slot)
 Return the <slot'th> character by reference in the string (doesn't perform bounds checking).

ACE_SString& operator= (const ACE_SString &)
 Assignment operator(does copy memory).

ACE_SString substring (size_t offset, ssize_t length = -1) const
ACE_SString substr (size_t offset, ssize_t length = -1) const
 Same as substring.

u_long hash (void) const
 Returns a hash value for this string.

size_t length (void) const
 Return the length of the string.

void rep (char *s)
 Set the underlying pointer. Since this does not copy memory or delete existing memory use with extreme caution!!!

 Comparison operator that will match substrings. Returns the slot of the first location that matches, else -1.

int find (const ACE_SString &str, int pos = 0) const
 Find <str> starting at pos. Returns the slot of the first location that matches (will be >= pos), else npos.

 Find <c> starting at pos. Returns the slot of the first location that matches (will be >= pos), else npos.

int rfind (char c, int pos = npos) const
 Find <c> starting at pos (counting from the end). Returns the slot of the first location that matches, else npos.

int operator== (const ACE_SString &s) const

int compare (const ACE_SString &s) const
 Performs a <strcmp>-style comparison.

void dump (void) const
 Dump the state of an object.


Public Attributes

 ACE_ALLOC_HOOK_DECLARE
 Declare the dynamic allocation hooks.


Static Public Attributes

const int npos
 No position constant.


Private Attributes

ACE_Allocatorallocator_
 Pointer to a memory allocator.

size_t len_
 Length of the ACE_SString (not counting the trailing '\0').

char* rep_
 Pointer to data.


Detailed Description

A very Simple String class. This is not a general-purpose string class, and you should probably consider using is you don't understand why this class exists...

This class is optimized for efficiency, so it doesn't provide any internal locking. CAUTION: This class is only intended for use with applications that understand how it works. In particular, its destructor does not deallocate its memory when it is destroyed... We need this class since the requires an object that supports the operator == and operator !=. This class uses an to allocate memory. The user can make this a persistant class by providing an with a persistable memory pool.
