Template Parameters

CharType character type of the string

This helper class is used to automatically infer constant string references for string literals, especially from const (!) character arrays.

The main use is for creating JSON string values without copying the source string via an Allocator. This requires that the referenced string pointers have a sufficient lifetime, which exceeds the lifetime of the associated GenericValue.

Example

Value v("foo");   // ok, no need to copy & calculate length
const char foo[] = "foo";
v.SetString(foo); // ok
 
const char* bar = foo;
// Value x(bar); // not ok, can't rely on bar's lifetime
Value x(StringRef(bar)); // lifetime explicitly guaranteed by user
Value y(StringRef(bar, 3));  // ok, explicitly pass length

Constructor & Destructor Documentation

◆ GenericStringRef() [1/4]

template<typename CharType >

template<SizeType N>

GenericStringRef< CharType >::GenericStringRef ( const CharType(&) str[N] )

inline

This constructor implicitly creates a constant string reference from a const character array. It has better performance than StringRef(const CharType*) by inferring the string length from the array length, and also supports strings containing null characters.

Template Parameters

N	length of the string, automatically inferred

Parameters

str	Constant character array, lifetime assumed to be longer than the use of the string in e.g. a GenericValue

Postcondition: s == str

Note: Constant complexity.; There is a hidden, private overload to disallow references to non-const character arrays to be created via this constructor. By this, e.g. function-scope arrays used to be filled via snprintf are excluded from consideration. In such cases, the referenced string should be copied to the GenericValue instead.

◆ GenericStringRef() [2/4]

template<typename CharType >

GenericStringRef< CharType >::GenericStringRef ( const CharType * str )

inlineexplicit

This constructor can be used to explicitly create a reference to a constant string pointer.

See also: StringRef(const CharType*)

Parameters

str	Constant character pointer, lifetime assumed to be longer than the use of the string in e.g. a GenericValue

Postcondition: s == str

Note: There is a hidden, private overload to disallow references to non-const character arrays to be created via this constructor. By this, e.g. function-scope arrays used to be filled via snprintf are excluded from consideration. In such cases, the referenced string should be copied to the GenericValue instead.

◆ GenericStringRef() [3/4]

template<typename CharType >

GenericStringRef< CharType >::GenericStringRef	(	const CharType *	str,
		SizeType	len )

inline

Parameters

str	constant string, lifetime assumed to be longer than the use of the string in e.g. a GenericValue
len	length of the string, excluding the trailing NULL terminator

Postcondition: s == str && length == len

Note: Constant complexity.

◆ StringRef() [1/2]

template<typename CharType >

GenericStringRef< CharType > StringRef ( const CharType * str )

Mark a plain character pointer as a "string literal". This function can be used to avoid copying a character string to be referenced as a value in a JSON GenericValue object, if the string's lifetime is known to be valid long enough.

Template Parameters

CharType Character type of the string

Parameters

str	Constant string, lifetime assumed to be longer than the use of the string in e.g. a GenericValue

Returns: GenericStringRef string reference object

}

◆ StringRef() [2/2]

template<typename CharType >

GenericStringRef< CharType > StringRef	(	const CharType *	str,
		size_t	length )

Mark a plain character pointer as a "string literal". This function can be used to avoid copying a character string to be referenced as a value in a JSON GenericValue object, if the string's lifetime is known to be valid long enough.

This version has better performance with supplied length, and also supports string containing null characters.

Template Parameters

CharType character type of the string

Parameters

str	Constant string, lifetime assumed to be longer than the use of the string in e.g. a GenericValue
length	The length of source string.

Returns: GenericStringRef string reference object
