Note that the exact usage of this depends on whether on not wxUSE_STL is
enabled. If
wxUSE_STL is enabled, wxStringBuffer creates a separate empty character buffer,
if wxUSE_STL is disabled, it uses GetWriteBuf() from wxString, keeping the same
buffer
wxString uses intact. In other words, relying on wxStringBuffer containing the

-
- wxString is a class representing a character string. Please see the
- @ref overview_wxstringoverview "wxString overview" for more information about
- it.
-
- As explained there, wxString implements most of the methods of the std::string
- class.
- These standard functions are not documented in this manual, please see the
- STL documentation).
- The behaviour of all these functions is identical to the behaviour described
- there.
-
- You may notice that wxString sometimes has many functions which do the same
- thing like, for example, wxString::Length,
- wxString::Len and @c length() which all return the string
- length. In all cases of such duplication the @c std::string-compatible
- method (@c length() in this case, always the lowercase version) should be
- used as it will ensure smoother transition to @c std::string when wxWidgets
- starts using it instead of wxString.
-
+
+ wxString is a class representing a Unicode character string.
+ wxString uses @c std::string internally to store its content
+ unless this is not supported by the compiler or disabled
+ specifically when building wxWidgets. Therefore wxString
+ inherits many features from @c std::string's. Most
+ implementations of @std::string are thread-safe and don't
+ use reference counting. By default, wxString uses @c std::string
+ internally even if wxUSE_STL is not defined.
+
+ Since wxWidgets 3.0 wxString internally uses UCS-2 (basically 2-byte per
+ character wchar_t) under Windows and UTF-8 under Unix, Linux and
+ OS X to store its content. Much work has been done to make existing
+ code using ANSI string literals work as before. If you need to have a
+ wxString that uses wchar_t on Unix and Linux, too, you can specify
+ this on the command line with the @c configure @c --disable-utf8 switch.
+
+ As a consequence of this change, iterating over a wxString by index
+ can become inefficient in UTF8 mode and iterators should be used instead:
+
+ @code
+ wxString s = "hello";
+ wxString::const_iterator i;
+ for (i = s.begin(); i != s.end(); ++i)
+ {
+ wxUniChar uni_ch = *i;
+ // do something with it
+ }
+ @endcode
+
+ Please see the
+ @ref overview_string "wxString overview" and the
+ @ref overview_unicode "Unicode overview" for more information
+ about it.
+
+ wxString uses the current locale encoding to convert any C string
+ literal to Unicode. The same is done for converting to and from
+ @c std::string and for the return value of c_str(). For this
+ conversion, the @a wxConvLibc class instance is used. See wxCSConv and wxMBConv.
+
+ wxString implements most of the methods of the @c std::string class.
+ These standard functions are only listed here, but they are not
+ fully documented in this manual. Please see the STL documentation.
+ The behaviour of all these functions is identical to the behaviour
+ described there.
+
+ You may notice that wxString sometimes has several functions which do
+ the same thing like, for example, Length(), Len() and length() which
+ all return the string length. In all cases of such duplication the
+ @c std::string compatible method should be used.
+
+ Anything may be concatenated (appended to) with a string. However, you can't
+ append something to a C string (including literal constants), so to do this it
+ should be converted to a wxString first.
+
+ @li operator<<()
+ @li operator+=()
+ @li operator+()
+ @li Append()
+ @li Prepend()
+
+ A string may be constructed either from a C string, (some number of copies of)
+ a single character or a wide (UNICODE) string. For all constructors (except the
+ default which creates an empty string) there is also a corresponding assignment
+ operator.
+
+ @li wxString()
+ @li operator=()
+ @li ~wxString()
+
+ The MakeXXX() variants modify the string in place, while the other functions
+ return a new string which contains the original text converted to the upper or
+ lower case and leave the original string unchanged.
+
+ @li MakeUpper()
+ @li Upper()
+ @li MakeLower()
+ @li Lower()
+
+ Many functions in this section take a character index in the string. As with C
+ strings and/or arrays, the indices start from 0, so the first character of a
+ string is string[0]. Attempt to access a character beyond the end of the
+ string (which may be even 0 if the string is empty) will provoke an assert
+ failure in @ref overview_debugging "debug build", but no checks are
+ done in release builds.
+ This section also contains both implicit and explicit conversions to C style
+ strings. Although implicit conversion is quite convenient, it is advised to use
+ explicit c_str() method for the sake of clarity.
+
+ @li GetChar()
+ @li GetWritableChar()
+ @li SetChar()
+ @li Last()
+ @li operator[]()
+ @li c_str()
+ @li mb_str()
+ @li wc_str()
+ @li fn_str()
+
+ The default comparison function Cmp() is case-sensitive and
+ so is the default version of IsSameAs(). For case
+ insensitive comparisons you should use CmpNoCase() or
+ give a second parameter to IsSameAs. This last function is may be more
+ convenient if only equality of the strings matters because it returns a boolean
+ @true value if the strings are the same and not 0 (which is usually @false
+ in C)as Cmp() does.
+ Matches() is a poor man's regular expression matcher: it only understands
+ '*' and '?' metacharacters in the sense of DOS command line interpreter.
+ StartsWith() is helpful when parsing a line of text which should start
+ with some predefined prefix and is more efficient than doing direct string
+ comparison as you would also have to precalculate the length of the prefix then.
+
+ @li Cmp()
+ @li CmpNoCase()
+ @li IsSameAs()
+ @li Matches()
+ @li StartsWith()
+ @li EndsWith()
+
+ The string provides functions for conversion to signed and unsigned integer and
+ floating point numbers. All three functions take a pointer to the variable to
+ put the numeric value in and return @true if the @b entire string could be
+ converted to a number.
+
+ @li ToLong()
+ @li ToLongLong()
+ @li ToULong()
+ @li ToULongLong()
+ @li ToDouble()
+
+ These are "advanced" functions and they will be needed quite rarely.
+ Alloc() and Shrink() are only interesting for optimization purposes.
+ wxStringBuffer and wxStringBufferLength classes may be very useful
+ when working with some external API which requires the caller to provide
+ a writable buffer.
+
+ @li Alloc()
+ @li Shrink()
+ @li wxStringBuffer
+ @li wxStringBufferLength
+
+ Misc. other string functions.
+
+ @li Trim()
+ @li Truncate()
+ @li Pad()
+
+ These functions return the string length and check whether the string
+ is empty or empty it.
+
+ @li Len()
+ @li IsEmpty()
+ @li operator!()
+ @li Empty()
+ @li Clear()
+
+
+ These functions allow to extract substring from this string. All of them don't
+ modify the original string and return a new string containing the extracted
+ substring.
+
+ @li Mid()
+ @li operator()()
+ @li Left()
+ @li Right()
+ @li BeforeFirst()
+ @li BeforeLast()
+ @li AfterFirst()
+ @li AfterLast()
+ @li StartsWith()
+ @li EndsWith()
+
+ These functions replace the standard @e strchr() and @e strstr()
+ functions.
+
+ @li Find()
+ @li Replace()
+
+ Both formatted versions (Printf/() and stream-like insertion operators
+ exist (for basic types only). Additionally, the Format() function allows
+ to use simply append formatted value to a string:
+
+ @li Format()
+ @li FormatV()
+ @li Printf()
+ @li PrintfV()
+ @li operator>>()
+
+ These functions are deprecated, please consider using new wxWidgets 2.0
+ functions instead of them (or, even better, std::string compatible variants).
