Module str::raw

Function c_str_to_static_slice

unsafe fn c_str_to_static_slice(s: *libc::c_char) -> &'static str

Form a slice from a C string. Unsafe because the caller must ensure the C string has the static lifetime, or else the return value may be invalidated later.

Function from_buf_len

unsafe fn from_buf_len(buf: *u8, len: uint) -> ~str

Create a Rust string from a *u8 buffer of the given length

Function from_byte

unsafe fn from_byte(u: u8) -> ~str

Converts a byte to a string.

Function from_c_str

unsafe fn from_c_str(buf: *libc::c_char) -> ~str

Create a Rust string from a null-terminated C string

Function from_utf8

unsafe fn from_utf8(v: &[u8]) -> ~str

Converts a vector of bytes to a new owned string.

Function from_utf8_owned

unsafe fn from_utf8_owned(v: ~[u8]) -> ~str

Converts an owned vector of bytes to a new owned string. This assumes that the utf-8-ness of the vector has already been validated

Function pop_byte

unsafe fn pop_byte(s: &mut ~str) -> u8

Removes the last byte from a string and returns it. (Not UTF-8 safe).

Function push_byte

unsafe fn push_byte(s: &mut ~str, b: u8)

Appends a byte to a string. (Not UTF-8 safe).

Function set_len

unsafe fn set_len(s: &mut ~str, new_len: uint)

Sets the length of a string

This will explicitly set the size of the string, without actually modifying its buffers, so it is up to the caller to ensure that the string is actually the specified size.

Function shift_byte

unsafe fn shift_byte(s: &mut ~str) -> u8

Removes the first byte from a string and returns it. (Not UTF-8 safe).

Function slice_bytes

unsafe fn slice_bytes<'a>(s: &'a str, begin: uint, end: uint) -> &'a str

Takes a bytewise (not UTF-8) slice from a string.

Returns the substring from [begin..end).

Function slice_unchecked

unsafe fn slice_unchecked<'a>(s: &'a str, begin: uint, end: uint) -> &'a str

Takes a bytewise (not UTF-8) slice from a string.

Returns the substring from [begin..end).

Caller must check slice boundaries!

Function strdup_uniq

unsafe fn strdup_uniq(ptr: *u8, len: uint) -> ~str
