These functions provide string buffers management.

The String Buffer data type is designed to be a mutable string, allowing to append, prepend or insert a string to a buffer.

For more information see this example.

Eina_Strbuf

Type for a string buffer.

Function Documentation

Eina_Bool eina_strbuf_append	(	Eina_Strbuf *	buf,
		const char *	str
	)

Appends a string to a buffer, reallocating as necessary.

Parameters:

buf	The string buffer to append to.
str	The string to append.

Returns:: EINA_TRUE on success, EINA_FALSE on failure.

This function appends str to buf. It computes the length of str, so is slightly slower than eina_strbuf_append_length(). If the length is known beforehand, consider using that variant. If buf can't append it, EINA_FALSE is returned, otherwise EINA_TRUE is returned.

Since :: 2.3

Eina_Bool eina_strbuf_append_buffer	(	Eina_Strbuf *	buf,
		const Eina_Strbuf *	data
	)

Appends an Eina_Strbuf to a buffer, reallocating as necessary.

Parameters:

buf	The string buffer to append to.
data	The string buffer to append.

Returns:: EINA_TRUE on success, EINA_FALSE on failure.

This function appends data to buf. data must be allocated and different from . It is slightly faster than eina_strbuf_append() as it does not compute the size of str. If buf can't append it, EINA_FALSE is returned, otherwise EINA_TRUE is returned.

	)

Appends a character to a string buffer, reallocating as necessary.

Parameters:

buf	The string buffer to append to.
c	The char to append.

Returns:: EINA_TRUE on success, EINA_FALSE on failure.

This function inserts c to buf. If it can not insert it, EINA_FALSE is returned, otherwise EINA_TRUE is returned.

Examples:: eina_strbuf_01.c.

Eina_Bool eina_strbuf_append_escaped	(	Eina_Strbuf *	buf,

	)

Appends an escaped string to a buffer, reallocating as necessary.

Parameters:

buf	The string buffer to append to.
str	The string to append.

Returns:: EINA_TRUE on success, EINA_FALSE on failure.

This function escapes and then appends the string str to buf. If str can not be appended, EINA_FALSE is returned, otherwise, EINA_TRUE is returned.

	)

Appends a string of exact length to a buffer, reallocating as necessary.

Parameters:

buf	The string buffer to append to.
str	The string to append.
length	The exact length to use.

Returns:: EINA_TRUE on success, EINA_FALSE on failure.

This function appends str to buf. str must be of size at most length. It is slightly faster than eina_strbuf_append() as it does not compute the size of str. It is useful when dealing with strings of known size, such as eina_stringshare. If buf can't append it, EINA_FALSE is returned, otherwise EINA_TRUE is returned.

Parameters:

buf	The string buffer to append to.
str	The string to append.
maxlen	The maximum number of characters to append.

Returns:: EINA_TRUE on success, EINA_FALSE on failure.

If the length is known beforehand, consider using that variant (maxlen should then be checked so that it is greater than the size of str). If str can not be appended, EINA_FALSE is returned, otherwise, EINA_TRUE is returned.
