Detailed Description
Unicode string class. Uses UTF-8 encoding. For optimal performance, use the StringIterator class to iterate over a WoopsiString instance.
Where possible, the string avoids allocating memory each time the string grows or shrinks. This means that the string may consume more memory than the number of chars would seem to dictate if the object previously contained a large string that has subsequently been truncated. It also means that increasing the length of such a string is a cheaper operation as memory does not need to allocated and copied.
Additionally, the string increases its array size by _growAmount every time it needs to allocate extra memory, potentially reducing the number of reallocs needed.
The string is not null-terminated. Instead, it uses a _stringLength member that stores the number of characters in the string. This saves a byte and makes calls to getLength() run in O(1) time instead of O(n).

Member Function Documentation
virtual void WoopsiUI::WoopsiString::allocateMemory |
( |
s32 |
chars, |
|
|
bool |
preserve | |
|
) |
| | [protected, virtual] |
Allocate memory for the string.
- Parameters:
-
| chars | Number of chars to allocate. |
| preserve | If true, the data in the existing memory will be preserved if new memory must be allocated |
virtual void WoopsiUI::WoopsiString::append |
( |
const WoopsiString & |
text |
) |
[virtual] |
Append text to the end of the string.
- Parameters:
-
Reimplemented in WoopsiUI::Text.
virtual s32 WoopsiUI::WoopsiString::compareTo |
( |
const WoopsiString & |
string |
) |
const [inline, virtual] |
Compares this string to the argument.
- Parameters:
-
| string | String to compare to. |
- Returns:
- Zero if both strings are equal. A value greater than zero indicates that this string is greater than the argument string. A value less than zero indicates the opposite. Note that the return value indicates the *byte* that does not match, not the *character*.
virtual void WoopsiUI::WoopsiString::copyToCharArray |
( |
char * |
buffer |
) |
const [virtual] |
Copy the internal array to the supplied buffer. The buffer must be large enough to contain the full text in the string. The getByteCount() method can be used to obtain the length of the string. Unlike the WoopsiString class, the char array is null-terminated. The buffer must be (getByteCount() + 1) bytes long, in order to accommodate the terminator.
- Parameters:
-
| buffer | Buffer to copy the internal char array to. |
s32 WoopsiUI::WoopsiString::filterString |
( |
char * |
dest, |
|
|
const char * |
src, |
|
|
s32 |
sourceBytes, |
|
|
s32 * |
totalUnicodeChars | |
|
) |
| | const [protected] |
Copies the valid utf-8 tokens of the string src into string dest and returns the number of bytes in the filtered string.
- Parameters:
-
| dest | Destination string. |
| src | Source string. |
| sourceBytes | Number of bytes in the source string. |
| totalUnicodeChars | Output parameter populated with the total number of unicode characters in the filtered string. |
- Returns:
- The number of bytes in the filtered string.
virtual s32 WoopsiUI::WoopsiString::getAllocatedSize |
( |
|
) |
const [inline, protected, virtual] |
Get the amount of allocated memory.
- Returns:

virtual const u32 WoopsiUI::WoopsiString::getCharAt |
( |
s32 |
index |
) |
const [virtual] |
Get the character at the specified index. This function is useful for finding the occasional character at an index, but for iterating over strings it is exceptionally slow. The newStringIterator() method should be used to retrieve an iterator object that can iterate over the string efficiently.
- Parameters:
-
| index | The index of the character to retrieve. |
- Returns:
- The character at the specified index.
u32 WoopsiUI::WoopsiString::getCodePoint |

| | const [protected] |
Get the number of chars read in the UTF-8 token and its codepoint. In the case of an invalid codepoint, the value returned will be 0.
- Parameters:
-
| string | String to analyse. |
| numChars | Pointer to a u8 that will hold the number of chars in the codepoint once the method ends. |
- Returns:
- The codepoint. Returns 0 if the codepoint is invalid.
virtual const s32 WoopsiUI::WoopsiString::getLength |
( |
|
) |
const [inline, virtual] |
Get the of number of UTF-8 tokens (ie. the length) of the string.
