◆ vl_enumeration_get()

VlEnumerator* vl_enumeration_get	(	VlEnumerator const *	enumeration,
		char const *	name
	)

Parameters

enumeration	array of VlEnumerator objects.
name	the name of the desired member.

Returns: enumerator matching name.

If name is not found in the enumeration, then the value NULL is returned.

See also: vl-stringop-enumeration

◆ vl_enumeration_get_by_value()

VlEnumerator* vl_enumeration_get_by_value	(	VlEnumerator const *	enumeration,
		vl_index	value
	)

Parameters

enumeration	array of VlEnumerator objects.
value	value of the desired member.

Returns: enumerator matching value.

If value is not found in the enumeration, then the value NULL is returned.

See also: vl-stringop-enumeration

◆ vl_enumeration_get_casei()

VlEnumerator* vl_enumeration_get_casei	(	VlEnumerator const *	enumeration,
		char const *	name
	)

Parameters

enumeration	array of VlEnumerator objects.
name	the name of the desired member.

Returns: enumerator matching name.

If name is not found in the enumeration, then the value NULL is returned. string is matched case insensitive.

See also: vl-stringop-enumeration

◆ vl_string_basename()

vl_size vl_string_basename	(	char *	destination,
		vl_size	destinationSize,
		char const *	source,
		vl_size	maxNumStrippedExtensions
	)

Parameters

destination	destination buffer.
destinationSize	size of destination buffer.
source	input string.
maxNumStrippedExtensions	maximum number of extensions to strip.

Returns: length of the destination string.

The function removes the leading path and up to maxNumStrippedExtensions trailing extensions from the string source and writes the result to the buffer destination.

The leading path is the longest suffix that ends with either the \ or / characters. An extension is a string starting with the . character not containing it. For instance, the string file.png contains the extension .png and the string file.tar.gz contains two extensions (.tar and .gz).

See also: Detecting overflow.

◆ vl_string_casei_cmp()

int vl_string_casei_cmp	(	const char *	string1,
		const char *	string2
	)

Parameters

string1	fisrt string.
string2	second string.

Returns: an integer =,<,> 0 if string1 =,<,> string2

◆ vl_string_copy()

vl_size vl_string_copy	(	char *	destination,
		vl_size	destinationSize,
		char const *	source
	)

Parameters

destination	output buffer.
destinationSize	size of the output buffer.
source	string to copy.

Returns: length of the source string.

The function copies the string source to the buffer destination of size destinationSize.

See also: Detecting overflow.

◆ vl_string_copy_sub()

vl_size vl_string_copy_sub	(	char *	destination,
		vl_size	destinationSize,
		char const *	beginning,
		char const *	end
	)

Parameters

destination	output buffer.
destinationSize	size of output buffer.
beginning	start of the substring.
end	end of the substring.

Returns: length of the destination string.

The function copies the substring from at beginning to end (not included) to the buffer destination of size destinationSize. If, however, the null character is found before end, the substring terminates there.

See also: Detecting overflow.

◆ vl_string_find_char_rev()

char* vl_string_find_char_rev	(	char const *	beginning,
		char const *	end,
		char	c
	)

Parameters

beginning	pointer to the substring beginning.
end	pointer to the substring end.
c	character to search for.

Returns: pointer to last occurrence of c, or 0 if none.

The function searches for the last occurrence of the character c in the substring from beg to end (the latter not being included).

◆ vl_string_length()

vl_size vl_string_length ( char const * string )

Parameters

string string.

Returns: string length.

◆ vl_string_parse_protocol()

char* vl_string_parse_protocol	(	char const *	string,
		int *	protocol
	)

Parameters

string	string.
protocol	protocol code (output).

Returns: pointer to the first character after the protocol prefix.

The function extracts the prefix of the string string terminated by the first occurrence of the :// substring (if any). It then matches the suffix terminated by :// to the supported File protocols protocols. If protocol is not NULL, the corresponding protocol code is written to protocol

The function writes to protocol the value VL_PROT_NONE if no suffix is detected and VL_PROT_UNKNOWN if there is a suffix but it cannot be matched to any of the supported protocols.

◆ vl_string_protocol_name()

char const* vl_string_protocol_name ( int protocol )

Parameters

protocol protocol code.

Returns: pointer protocol name string.

The function returns a pointer to a string containing the name of the protocol protocol (see the vl-file-protocols protocols list). If the protocol is unknown the function returns the empty string.

◆ vl_string_replace_wildcard()

vl_size vl_string_replace_wildcard	(	char *	destination,
		vl_size	destinationSize,
		char const *	source,
		char	wildcardChar,
		char	escapeChar,
		char const *	replacement
	)

Parameters

destination	output buffer.
destinationSize	size of the output buffer.
source	input string.
wildcardChar	wildcard character.
escapeChar	escape character.
replacement	replacement string.

The function replaces the occurrence of the specified wildcard character wildcardChar by the string replacement. The result is written to the buffer destination of size destinationSize.

Wildcard characters may be escaped by preceding them by the esc character. More in general, anything following an occurrence of esc character is copied verbatim. To disable the escape characters simply set esc to 0.

Returns: length of the result.
