Struct heapless::String

pub struct String<N>(_)
 where
    N: ArrayLength<u8>;

A fixed capacity String

Methods

impl<N> String<N> where
    N: ArrayLength<u8>, 

pub fn new() -> Self

Constructs a new, empty String with a fixed capacity of N

Examples

Basic usage:

use heapless::String;
use heapless::consts::*;

// allocate the string on the stack
let mut s: String<U4> = String::new();

// allocate the string in a static variable
static mut S: String<U4> = String(heapless::i::String::new());

pub fn from_utf8(vec: Vec<u8, N>) -> Result<String<N>, Utf8Error>

Converts a vector of bytes into a String.

A string slice ([&str]) is made of bytes (u8), and a vector of bytes ([Vec<u8>]) is made of bytes, so this function converts between the two. Not all byte slices are valid Strings, however: String requires that it is valid UTF-8. from_utf8() checks to ensure that the bytes are valid UTF-8, and then does the conversion.

See std::String for further information.

Examples

Basic usage:

use heapless::{String, Vec};
use heapless::consts::*;

let mut v: Vec<u8, U8> = Vec::new();
v.push('a' as u8).unwrap();
v.push('b' as u8).unwrap();

let s = String::from_utf8(v).unwrap();
assert!(s.len() == 2);

Incorrect bytes:

use heapless::{String, Vec};
use heapless::consts::*;

// some invalid bytes, in a vector

let mut v: Vec<u8, U8> = Vec::new();
v.push(0).unwrap();
v.push(159).unwrap();
v.push(146).unwrap();
v.push(150).unwrap();
assert!(String::from_utf8(v).is_err());

pub unsafe fn from_utf8_unchecked(vec: Vec<u8, N>) -> String<N>

Converts a vector of bytes to a String without checking that the string contains valid UTF-8.

See the safe version, from_utf8, for more details.

pub fn into_bytes(self) -> Vec<u8, N>

Converts a String into a byte vector.

This consumes the String, so we do not need to copy its contents.

Examples

Basic usage:

use heapless::String;
use heapless::consts::*;

let s: String<U4> = String::from("ab");
let b = s.into_bytes();
assert!(b.len() == 2);

assert_eq!(&['a' as u8, 'b' as u8], &b[..]);

pub fn as_str(&self) -> &str

Extracts a string slice containing the entire string.

Examples

Basic usage:

use heapless::String;
use heapless::consts::*;

let mut s: String<U4> = String::from("ab");
assert!(s.as_str() == "ab");

let _s = s.as_str();
// s.push('c'); // <- cannot borrow `s` as mutable because it is also borrowed as immutable

pub fn as_mut_str(&mut self) -> &mut str

Converts a String into a mutable string slice.

Examples

Basic usage:

use heapless::String;
use heapless::consts::*;

let mut s: String<U4> = String::from("ab");
let s = s.as_mut_str();
s.make_ascii_uppercase();

pub fn push_str(&mut self, string: &str) -> Result<(), ()>

Appends a given string slice onto the end of this String.

Examples

Basic usage:

use heapless::String;
use heapless::consts::*;

let mut s: String<U8> = String::from("foo");

assert!(s.push_str("bar").is_ok());

assert_eq!("foobar", s);

assert!(s.push_str("tender").is_err());

pub fn capacity(&self) -> usize

Returns the maximum number of elements the String can hold

Examples

Basic usage:

use heapless::String;
use heapless::consts::*;

let mut s: String<U4> = String::new();
assert!(s.capacity() == 4);

pub fn push(&mut self, c: char) -> Result<(), ()>

Appends the given char to the end of this String.

Examples

Basic usage:

use heapless::String;
use heapless::consts::*;

let mut s: String<U8> = String::from("abc");

s.push('1').unwrap();
s.push('2').unwrap();
s.push('3').unwrap();

assert!("abc123" == s.as_str());

assert_eq!("abc123", s);

pub fn truncate(&mut self, new_len: usize)

Shortens this String to the specified length.

If new_len is greater than the string's current length, this has no effect.

Note that this method has no effect on the allocated capacity of the string

Panics

Panics if new_len does not lie on a char boundary.

Examples

Basic usage:

use heapless::String;
use heapless::consts::*;

let mut s: String<U8> = String::from("hello");

s.truncate(2);

assert_eq!("he", s);

pub fn pop(&mut self) -> Option<char>

Removes the last character from the string buffer and returns it.

Returns None if this String is empty.

Examples

Basic usage:

use heapless::String;
use heapless::consts::*;

let mut s: String<U8> = String::from("foo");

assert_eq!(s.pop(), Some('o'));
assert_eq!(s.pop(), Some('o'));
assert_eq!(s.pop(), Some('f'));

assert_eq!(s.pop(), None);

pub fn clear(&mut self)

Truncates this String, removing all contents.

While this means the String will have a length of zero, it does not touch its capacity.

Examples

Basic usage:

use heapless::String;
use heapless::consts::*;

let mut s: String<U8> = String::from("foo");

s.clear();

assert!(s.is_empty());
assert_eq!(0, s.len());
assert_eq!(8, s.capacity());
