Struct smol_str::SmolStr

pub struct SmolStr(_);

A SmolStr is a string type that has the following properties:

• size_of::<SmolStr>() == size_of::<String>()
• Clone is O(1)
• Strings are stack-allocated if they are:
  • Up to 22 bytes long
  • Longer than 22 bytes, but substrings of WS (see below). Such strings consist solely of consecutive newlines, followed by consecutive spaces
• If a string does not satisfy the aforementioned conditions, it is heap-allocated

Unlike String, however, SmolStr is immutable. The primary use case for SmolStr is a good enough default storage for tokens of typical programming languages. Strings consisting of a series of newlines, followed by a series of whitespace are a typical pattern in computer programs because of indentation. Note that a specialized interner might be a better solution for some use cases.
