◆ VuoText_compare()

bool VuoText_compare ( VuoText  text1,

text1 is the subject of the comparison and text2 is the object. For example, if the comparison is "begins with", this function checks if text1 begins with text2.

Definition at line 478 of file VuoText.c.

◆ VuoText_findFirstOccurrence()

size_t VuoText_findFirstOccurrence ( const VuoText  string,
const VuoText  substring,
const size_t  startIndex 
)

Returns the index (starting at 1) of the first instance of substring in string at index >= startIndex. Returns 0 if substring is not found.

This function will find occurrences that consist of the same Unicode characters as substring, but won't find occurrences that consist of the same Unicode string decomposed into a different number of Unicode characters.

Definition at line 582 of file VuoText.c.

◆ VuoText_findLastOccurrence()

)

Returns the index (starting at 1) of the last instance of substring in string. Returns 0 if substring is not found.

This function will find occurrences that consist of the same Unicode characters as substring, but won't find occurrences that consist of the same Unicode string decomposed into a different number of Unicode characters.

Definition at line 616 of file VuoText.c.

Returns true if text is empty (is NULL or is non-NULL with zero length).

Definition at line 375 of file VuoText.c.

◆ VuoText_isLessThan()

bool VuoText_isLessThan ( const VuoText  text1,
const VuoText  text2

Returns true if text1 is ordered before text2 in a case-sensitive lexicographic ordering (which treats different UTF-8 encodings and Unicode character decompositions as equivalent).

Definition at line 445 of file VuoText.c.

◆ VuoText_isLessThanCaseInsensitive()

bool VuoText_isLessThanCaseInsensitive ( const VuoText  text1,
const VuoText  text2

Definition at line 347 of file VuoText.c.

◆ VuoText_make()

VuoText VuoText_make ( const char *  unquotedString)

Definition at line 127 of file VuoText.c.

◆ VuoText_makeFromCFString()

VuoText VuoText_makeFromCFString ( const void *  cfString)

Returns NULL if data is not valid UTF-8 text (e.g., if it contains byte 0xfe or 0xff).

data is copied.

Definition at line 277 of file VuoText.c.

◆ VuoText_makeFromJson()

VuoText VuoText_makeFromJson ( json_object js)

Decodes the JSON object js, expected to contain a UTF-8 string, to create a new value.

Definition at line 40 of file VuoText.c.

◆ VuoText_makeFromMacRoman()

VuoText VuoText_makeFromMacRoman ( const char *  string)

Creates a new VuoText from a MacRoman-encoded string.

Definition at line 327 of file VuoText.c.

◆ VuoText_makeFromString()

VuoText VuoText_makeFromString ( const char *  str)

Automatically generated function.

◆ VuoText_makeFromUtf32()

VuoText VuoText_makeFromUtf32 ( const uint32_t *  data,
size_t  size 
)

Create a new VuoText string from an array of UTF-32 values.

Returns NULL if data is not valid UTF-32 text.

data is copied.

Definition at line 295 of file VuoText.c.

◆ VuoText_makeWithMaxLength()

VuoText VuoText_makeWithMaxLength ( const void *  data,
const size_t  maxLength 
)

Creates a VuoText value from an untrusted source (one that might not contain a NULL terminator within its memory page).

Use this, for example, to safely handle a string that's part of a network packet.

If data ends with a NULL terminator, this function simply copies it into a new VuoText instance.

If data does not end with a NULL terminator, this function scans up to maxLength bytes in data. If it finds a NULL terminator, it returns text up to and including the NULL terminator. If it doesn't find a NULL terminator, it returns maxLength characters followed by a NULL terminator.

If data is in a multi-byte UTF8 character sequence when maxLength is reached, the sequence will be terminated partway, probably resulting in an invalid UTF8 sequence.

Definition at line 152 of file VuoText.c.

◆ VuoText_release()

void VuoText_release ( VuoText  value)

Automatically generated function.

◆ VuoText_removeAt()

VuoText VuoText_removeAt ( const VuoText  string,
int  startIndex,
int  length 
)

Returns a new string where characters from startIndex to startIndex + length are removed.

startIndex is 1 indexed, not 0.

Definition at line 925 of file VuoText.c.

◆ VuoText_replace()

VuoText VuoText_replace ( VuoText  subject,
VuoText  stringToFind,
VuoText  replacement 
)

Returns a new string in which each occurrence of stringToFind in subject has been replaced with replacement.

stringToFind matches even if a different UTF-8 encoding or Unicode character decomposition is used.

Definition at line 847 of file VuoText.c.

◆ VuoText_retain()

void VuoText_retain ( VuoText  value)

Automatically generated function.

◆ VuoText_split()

VuoText * VuoText_split ( VuoText  text,
VuoText  separator,
bool  includeEmptyParts,
size_t *  partsCount 
)

Splits text into parts (basically the inverse of VuoText_append()).

Definition at line 759 of file VuoText.c.

◆ VuoText_substring()

VuoText VuoText_substring ( const VuoText  string,
int  startIndex,
int  length 
)

Returns the substring of string starting at index startIndex and spanning length Unicode characters.

startIndex is indexed from 1, not 0.

If startIndex is past the end of string, returns the empty string.

If startIndex is before the beginning of string, deducts the number of characters before the beginning from length, and returns characters starting at the beginning of string.

If string has fewer than length characters from startIndex to the end of string, returns all characters from startIndex to the end of string.

Definition at line 690 of file VuoText.c.

◆ VuoText_trim()

VuoText VuoText_trim ( const VuoText  text)

Returns a new string consisting of text without the whitespace at the beginning and end.

This function trims ASCII spaces, tabs, and linebreaks, but not other Unicode whitespace characters.

)

If subject is less than or equal to maxLength Unicode characters long, returns subject.

If subject is greater than maxLength, truncates subject to maxLength characters and adds a Unicode ellipsis.
