strchar.h(3)

💖 strchar.h — the strchar.h(3) era 💖

okay bestie, gather round, because this is the strchar.h page from the Library Functions Manual and it's literally all about character string stuff. common and portable. yes. we love a portable queen. 🎀

---

✨ NAME ✨

strchar.h — Common and portable character string related functions. that's it. that's the whole vibe. 💅

---

🌸 SYNOPSIS 🌸

first things first, you gotta pull in the goods. include these, exactly these:

#include <cc++/config.h>
#include <cc++/missing.h>
#include <cctype>
#include <string>
#include <cstring>

🦋 Namespaces 🦋

• ost — that's the one, that's where everybody lives 🫶

🧚 Functions 🧚

okay so here's the whole squad, no cap, every single one of them:

• __EXPORT char * ost::lsetField (char *target, size_t size, const char *src, const char fill=0)
• __EXPORT char * ost::rsetField (char *target, size_t size, const char *src, const char fill=0)
• __EXPORT char * ost::setString (char *target, size_t size, const char *src)
• __EXPORT char * ost::addString (char *target, size_t size, const char *src)
• __EXPORT char * ost::newString (const char *src, size_t size=0)
• __EXPORT void ost::delString (char *str)
• __EXPORT char * ost::setUpper (char *string, size_t size)
• __EXPORT char * ost::setLower (char *string, size_t size)
• __EXPORT char * ost::find (const char *cs, char *str, size_t len=0)
• __EXPORT char * ost::rfind (const char *cs, char *str, size_t len=0)
• __EXPORT char * ost::ifind (const char *cs, char *str, size_t len=0)
• __EXPORT char * ost::strip (const char *cs, char *str, size_t len=0)
• __EXPORT size_t ost::strchop (const char *cs, char *str, size_t len=0)
• __EXPORT size_t ost::strtrim (const char *cs, char *str, size_t len=0)
• char * ost::dupString (const char *src, size_t size=0)

like. look at that lineup. fourteen functions and a namespace and every single one of them is keeping it real. the lsetField / rsetField duo? twins. the find / rfind / ifind trio? a little friend group. and dupString at the very bottom with no __EXPORT on it, living its own life, main character energy honestly 👑

notice the defaults are all sitting right there in the signatures — const char fill=0, size_t size=0, size_t len=0 — don't @ me, that's just what they say. ✨

💜 Detailed Description 💜

Common and portable character string related functions.

that's the whole thing bestie. it's giving "the description is the name again." iconic behaviour fr fr. 😭

okay that's the page!! 🦋 this was GNU CommonC++, dated Sun Dec 27 2020, and that's the footer, so we're done here. go forth and manipulate some strings responsibly bestie, ily, bye 💖🌸🎀🫶
