# flatstring library
|
|
|
|
Fixed-length no-allocation string implementation.
|
|
|
|
Features:
|
|
- char array representation with maximum size set at compile time.
|
|
- compile time construction from char array and string concatenation
|
|
- pointer-free implementation, instances can be used as template arguments
|
|
- To the extent practical, provides the same api as `std::string`: includes iterators,
|
|
access methods, assignment, conversion operators.
|
|
|
|
Limitations:
|
|
- requires c++20
|
|
- not resizable.
|
|
- does not support wide characters.
|
|
- (asof April 2024) missing features: `insert`, `erase`, `push_back`, `append`, `replace`,
|
|
`find`, `compare`, `starts_with`, `ends_with`, `contains`, `substr`.

## Getting started
|
|
|
|
### Install dependencies
|
|
|
|
- [github/Rconybea/xo-cmake](https://github.com/Rconybea/xo-cmake) cmake macros
|
|
- [github/Rconybea/xo-indentlog](https://github.com/Rconybea/indentlog) logging (used by unit tests)
|
|
|
|
### Clone xo-flatstring
|
|
|
|
```
|
|
$ cd ~/proj # for example
|
|
$ git clone https://github.com/rconybea/xo-flatstring
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
### build + install
|
|
```
|
|
$ cd xo-flatstring
|
|
$ mkdir .build
|
|
$ PREFIX=/usr/local # for example
|
|
$ cmake -DCMAKE_INSTALL_PREFIX=${PREFIX} -B .build
|
|
$ cmake --build .build
|
|
$ cmake --install .build
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
### build documentation
|
|
```
|
|
$ cd xo-flatstring
|
|
$ cmake --build .build -- docs
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
Must invoke `docs` target explicitly to prepare documentation
|
|
When complete, point local browser to `xo-flatstring/.build/docs/sphinx/index.html`
|
|
|
|
### build with test coverage
|
|
```
|
|
$ cd xo-flatstring
|
|
$ mkdir .build-ccov
|
|
$ cmake -DCMAKE_INSTALL_PREFIX=$PREFIX -DCMAKE_BUILD_TYPE=coverage -B .build-ccov
|
|
$ cmake --build .build-ccov
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
run coverage-enabled unit tests
|
|
```
|
|
$ cmake --build .build-ccov -- test
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
generate html+text coverage report
|
|
```
|
|
$ cmake --build .build-ccov -- ccov
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
For html test coverage browse to `.build-ccov/ccov/html/index.html`
|
|
|
|
install documentation only, along with test-coverage report
|
|
```
|
|
$ cmake --install .build-ccov --component Documentation
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
### LSP support
|
|
```
|
|
$ cd xo-flatstring
|
|
$ ln -s .build/compile_commands.json
|
