Strings ​

Jule strings are designed as UTF-8 encoded byte sequences. The jule::Str is used for Jule strings in C++.

To create a jule::Str, you can use just string literals. If you want to specify length of the string, you can pass length as second argument.

For example:

jule::Str s1 = "Hello World!";
jule::Str s2("Hello World!", 12);
jule::outln(s1);
jule::outln(s2);

Strings are mutable like std::string. You can allocate buffered strings also via jule::Str::alloc method which is equivalent to Jule's make(str, len, cap) call.

For example:

jule::Str::alloc(0, 20)

Internal Buffer ​

The jule::Str is uses std::basic_string<jule::U8> as internal buffer. You can access to this buffer via the buffer field.

For example:

jule::Str s = jule::Str::alloc(0, 20);
jule::outln(s.buffer.capacity());
