BString Use Cases and Implementation Details:

+ +

This document describes the BString interface and some basics of how it is implemented. +The document has the following sections:

+ +
    +
  1. BString Interface
    2. +
  2. BString Use Cases
    3. +
  3. BString Implementation
    4. +
+ +

BString Interface:

+ +

The BString is as string allocation and manipulation class. The object allocates and deallocates +memory for you so the buffer will always be "big enough" to contain the data. +BString provides a number of charachter search, comparison, and manipulation functions in +a variety of flavors. The best source of information about the BString class can be found +here in the Be Book. +

+ +

BString Use Cases:

+ +

The following use cases cover the BString functionality:

+ +
    + +

  1. Construction 1: A BString can be created with an empty constructor. +This way the created BString is empty.

    2. + +

  2. Construction 2: You can create a BString object with a const char pointer as +parameter. After the construction, the BString object contains a copy of the string pointed +by the const char pointer.

    3. + +

  3. Construction 3: BString can be created using a copy constructor. +The parameter is another BString. After the construction, your BString will contain a +copy of the other BString.

    4. + +

  4. Construction 4: You can create a BString object with a const char pointer as +parameter and an int32 parameter, which specifies the maximum bytes BString will consider. +After the construction, the BString object contains a maximum of bytes (specified by the int32 +parameter) of the string pointed by the pointer.

    5. + +

  5. Destruction: The BString destructor frees the allocated memory.
