Detailed Description

Utility functions for std::string.

Function Documentation

formatString()

template<class... T>

static std::string Dune::formatString ( const std::string &  s, const T &...  args  )

static

Format values according to printf format string.

Parameters

s	The format string to be used
args	The valued to be formatted

This is a wrapper to std::snprintf that provides overflow save printf functionality. For up to 1000 characters a static buffer is used. If this is not sufficient a dynamic buffer of appropriate size is allocated.

hasPrefix()

template<typename C >

bool Dune::hasPrefix	(	const C &	c,
		const char *	prefix
	)

Check whether a character container has a given prefix.

The container must support the begin() and size() methods.

hasSuffix()

template<typename C >

bool Dune::hasSuffix	(	const C &	c,
		const char *	suffix
	)

Check whether a character container has a given suffix.

The container must support the begin() and size() methods and the const_iterator member type.

Note

This is slow for containers which don't have random access iterators. In the case of containers with bidirectional iterators, this slowness is unnecessary.
