Struct winrt::FastHString

pub struct FastHString(_);

A string type that should be used to create strings that can be passed to Windows Runtime functions. Creating a new FastHString is faster than creating an instance of HString because it eliminates an additional allocation. Furthermore, obtaining a HStringArg from a FastHString is basically free, which is not the case for HString.

Methods

impl FastHString

fn new(s: &str) -> FastHString

Creates a new FastHString from a Rust string. FastHString uses the Rust allocator to create a storage buffer for its contents, where the string is stored in UTF-16 encoding. The buffer is freed on when the FastHString is dropped.

Examples

Basic usage:

use winrt::FastHString;
let s = FastHString::new("hello");
assert_eq!("hello", s.to_string());

fn empty() -> FastHString

Creates an empty FastHString.

fn len(&self) -> u32

Returns the length of the string in Unicode characters, as specified by WindowsGetStringLen.

Examples

Basic usage:

use winrt::FastHString;
let s = FastHString::new("hello");
assert_eq!(5, s.len());

fn is_empty(&self) -> bool

Checks whether the string is empty.

Examples

Basic usage:

use winrt::FastHString;
let s = FastHString::empty();
assert!(s.is_empty());

fn make_reference(&self) -> HStringReference

Creates an HStringReference that points to the contents of this FastHString.

Examples

Basic usage:

use winrt::FastHString;
let s = FastHString::new("hello");
let r = s.make_reference();  
assert_eq!("hello", r.to_string());
