+<hr><a name="details"></a><h2>Detailed Description</h2> + + + +The TQCString class provides an abstraction of the classic C +zero-terminated char array (char *). +<p> + + + +<p> TQCString inherits <a href="qbytearray.html">TQByteArray</a>, which is defined as +<a href="qmemarray.html">TQMemArray</a><char>. Since TQCString is a TQMemArray, it uses <a href="shclass.html">explicit sharing</a> with a reference count. +<p> TQCString tries to behave like a more convenient <tt>const char *</tt>. +The price of doing this is that some algorithms will perform +badly. For example, <a href="#append">append</a>() is O(length()) since it scans for a +null terminator. Although you might use TQCString for text that is +never exposed to the user, for most purposes, and especially for +user-visible text, you should use <a href="qstring.html">TQString</a>. TQString provides +<a href="shclass.html#implicit-sharing">implicit sharing</a>, Unicode and other <a href="i18n.html#internationalization">internationalization</a> support, +and is well optimized. +<p> Note that for the TQCString methods that take a <tt>const char *</tt> +parameter the <tt>const char *</tt> must either be 0 (null) or not-null +and '\0' (NUL byte) terminated; otherwise the results are +undefined. +<p> A TQCString that has not been assigned to anything is <em>null</em>, i.e. +both the length and the data pointer is 0. A TQCString that +references the empty string ("", a single '\0' char) is <em>empty</em>. +Both null and empty TQCStrings are legal parameters to the methods. +Assigning <tt>const char *</tt> 0 to TQCString produces a null TQCString. +<p> The <a href="#length">length</a>() function returns the length of the string; <a href="#resize">resize</a>() +resizes the string and <a href="#truncate">truncate</a>() truncates the string. A string +can be filled with a character using <a href="#fill">fill</a>(). Strings can be left +or right padded with characters using <a href="#leftJustify">leftJustify</a>() and +<a href="#rightJustify">rightJustify</a>(). Characters, strings and regular expressions can be +searched for using <a href="#find">find</a>() and <a href="#findRev">findRev</a>(), and counted using +<a href="#contains">contains</a>(). +<p> Strings and characters can be inserted with <a href="#insert">insert</a>() and appended +with <a href="#append">append</a>(). A string can be prepended with <a href="#prepend">prepend</a>(). +Characters can be removed from the string with <a href="#remove">remove</a>() and +replaced with <a href="#replace">replace</a>(). +<p> Portions of a string can be extracted using <a href="#left">left</a>(), <a href="#right">right</a>() and +<a href="#mid">mid</a>(). Whitespace can be removed using <a href="#stripWhiteSpace">stripWhiteSpace</a>() and +<a href="#simplifyWhiteSpace">simplifyWhiteSpace</a>(). Strings can be converted to uppercase or +lowercase with <a href="#upper">upper</a>() and <a href="#lower">lower</a>() respectively. +<p> Strings that contain numbers can be converted to numbers with +<a href="#toShort">toShort</a>(), <a href="#toInt">toInt</a>(), <a href="#toLong">toLong</a>(), <a href="#toULong">toULong</a>(), <a href="#toFloat">toFloat</a>() and <a href="#toDouble">toDouble</a>(). +Numbers can be converted to strings with <a href="#setNum">setNum</a>(). +<p> Many operators are overloaded to work with TQCStrings. TQCString +also supports some more obscure functions, e.g. <a href="#sprintf">sprintf</a>(), +<a href="#setStr">setStr</a>() and <a href="#setExpand">setExpand</a>(). +<p> <a name="asciinotion"></a> +<blockquote><p align="center"><b> Note on Character Comparisons +</b> +<p><p> In TQCString the notion of uppercase and lowercase and of which +character is greater than or less than another character is locale +dependent. This affects functions which support a case insensitive +option or which compare or lowercase or uppercase their arguments. +Case insensitive operations and comparisons will be accurate if +both strings contain only ASCII characters. (If <tt>$LC_CTYPE</tt> is +set, most Unix systems do "the right thing".) Functions that this +affects include <a href="#contains">contains</a>(), <a href="#find">find</a>(), <a href="#findRev">findRev</a>(), <a href="#operator-lt">operator<</a>(), <a href="#operator-lt-eq">operator<=</a>(), <a href="#operator-gt">operator></a>(), <a href="#operator-gt-eq">operator>=</a>(), <a href="#lower">lower</a>() and +<a href="#upper">upper</a>(). +<p> This issue does not apply to <a href="qstring.html">TQString</a>s since they represent +characters using Unicode. +</blockquote> +<p> +<p> Performance note: The TQCString methods for <a href="qregexp.html">TQRegExp</a> searching are +implemented by converting the TQCString to a <a href="qstring.html">TQString</a> and performing +the search on that. This implies a <a href="shclass.html#deep-copy">deep copy</a> of the TQCString data. +If you are going to perform many TQRegExp searches on a large +TQCString, you will get better performance by converting the +TQCString to a TQString yourself, and then searching in the TQString. +<p>See also <a href="collection.html">Collection Classes</a>, <a href="shared.html">Implicitly and Explicitly Shared Classes</a>, <a href="text.html">Text Related Classes</a>, and <a href="tools.html">Non-GUI Classes</a>. + +<hr><h2>Member Function Documentation</h2> +<h3 class=fn><a name="TQCString"></a>TQCString::TQCString () +</h3> + +<p> Constructs a null string. +<p> <p>See also <a href="#isNull">isNull</a>(). + +<h3 class=fn><a name="TQCString-2"></a>TQCString::TQCString ( int size ) +</h3> +Constructs a string with room for <em>size</em> characters, including +the '\0'-terminator.
