impl CxxString

fn new<T: Private>() -> Self

CxxString is not constructible via new. Instead, use the [let_cxx_string!] macro.

fn len(self: &Self) -> usize

Returns the length of the string in bytes.

Matches the behavior of C++ std::string::size.

fn is_empty(self: &Self) -> bool

Returns true if self has a length of zero bytes.

Matches the behavior of C++ std::string::empty.

fn as_bytes(self: &Self) -> &[u8]

Returns a byte slice of this string's contents.

fn as_ptr(self: &Self) -> *const u8

Produces a pointer to the first character of the string.

Matches the behavior of C++ std::string::data.

Note that the return type may look like const char * but is not a const char * in the typical C sense, as C++ strings may contain internal null bytes. As such, the returned pointer only makes sense as a string in combination with the length returned by len().

fn to_str(self: &Self) -> Result<&str, Utf8Error>

Validates that the C++ string contains UTF-8 data and produces a view of it as a Rust &str, otherwise an error.

fn to_string_lossy(self: &Self) -> Cow<'_, str>

If the contents of the C++ string are valid UTF-8, this function returns a view as a Cow::Borrowed &str. Otherwise replaces any invalid UTF-8 sequences with the U+FFFD replacement character and returns a Cow::Owned String.

fn clear(self: Pin<&mut Self>)

Removes all characters from the string.

Matches the behavior of C++ std::string::clear.

Note: unlike the guarantee of Rust's std::string::String::clear, the C++ standard does not require that capacity is unchanged by this operation. In practice existing implementations do not change the capacity but all pointers, references, and iterators into the string contents are nevertheless invalidated.

fn reserve(self: Pin<&mut Self>, additional: usize)

Ensures that this string's capacity is at least additional bytes larger than its length.

The capacity may be increased by more than additional bytes if it chooses, to amortize the cost of frequent reallocations.

The meaning of the argument is not the same as std::string::reserve in C++. The C++ standard library and Rust standard library both have a reserve method on strings, but in C++ code the argument always refers to total capacity, whereas in Rust code it always refers to additional capacity. This API on CxxString follows the Rust convention, the same way that for the length accessor we use the Rust conventional len() naming and not C++ size() or length().

Panics

Panics if the new capacity overflows usize.

fn push_str(self: Pin<&mut Self>, s: &str)

Appends a given string slice onto the end of this C++ string.

fn push_bytes(self: Pin<&mut Self>, bytes: &[u8])

Appends arbitrary bytes onto the end of this C++ string.
