Detailed Description

Utility class for manipulating Strings.

Member Function Documentation

◆ endsWith()

static bool Ogre::StringUtil::endsWith ( const String str,
const String pattern,
bool  lowerCase = true 
)
static

Returns whether the string ends with the pattern passed in.

Parameters
patternThe pattern to compare with.
lowerCaseIf true, the end of the string will be lower cased before comparison, pattern should also be in lower case.

◆ match()

static bool Ogre::StringUtil::match ( const String str,
const String pattern,
bool  caseSensitive = true 
)
static

Simple pattern-matching routine allowing a wildcard pattern.

Parameters
strString to test
patternPattern to match against; can include simple '*' wildcards
caseSensitiveWhether the match is case sensitive or not

◆ normalizeFilePath()

static String Ogre::StringUtil::normalizeFilePath ( const String init,
bool  makeLowerCase = true 
)
static

Returns a normalized version of a file path This method can be used to make file path strings which point to the same directory but have different texts to be normalized to the same text.

The function:

  • Transforms all backward slashes to forward slashes.
  • Removes repeating slashes.
  • Removes initial slashes from the beginning of the path.
  • Removes ".\" and "..\" meta directories.
  • Sets all characters to lowercase (if requested)
    Parameters
    initThe file path to normalize.
    makeLowerCaseIf true, transforms all characters in the string to lowercase.

◆ replaceAll()

static const String Ogre::StringUtil::replaceAll ( const String source,
const String replaceWhat,
const String replaceWithWhat 
)
static

Replace all instances of a sub-string with a another sub-string.

Parameters
sourceSource string
replaceWhatSub-string to find and replace
replaceWithWhatSub-string to replace with (the new sub-string)
Returns
An updated string with the sub-string replaced

◆ split()

static vector<String>::type Ogre::StringUtil::split ( const String str,
const String delims = "\ ",
unsigned int  maxSplits = 0,
bool  preserveDelims = false 
)
static

Returns a StringVector that contains all the substrings delimited by the characters in the passed delims argument.

Parameters
delimsA list of delimiter characters to split by
maxSplitsThe maximum number of splits to perform (0 for unlimited splits). If this parameters is > 0, the splitting process will stop after this many splits, left to right.
preserveDelimsFlag to determine if delimiters should be saved as substrings

◆ splitBaseFilename()

static void Ogre::StringUtil::splitBaseFilename ( const Ogre::String fullName,
Ogre::String outBasename,
Ogre::String outExtention 
)
static

Method for splitting a filename into the base name and extension.

◆ splitFilename()

static void Ogre::StringUtil::splitFilename ( const String qualifiedName,
String outBasename,
String outPath 
)
static

Method for splitting a fully qualified filename into the base name and path.

Remarks
Path is standardised as in standardisePath

◆ splitFullFilename()

static void Ogre::StringUtil::splitFullFilename ( const Ogre::String qualifiedName,
Ogre::String outBasename,
Ogre::String outExtention,
Ogre::String outPath 
)
static

Method for splitting a fully qualified filename into the base name, extension and path.

Remarks
Path is standardised as in standardisePath

◆ standardisePath()

static String Ogre::StringUtil::standardisePath ( const String init)
static

Method for standardising paths - use forward slashes only, end with slash.

◆ startsWith()

static bool Ogre::StringUtil::startsWith ( const String str,
const String pattern,
bool  lowerCase = true 
)
static

Returns whether the string begins with the pattern passed in.

Parameters
patternThe pattern to compare with.
lowerCaseIf true, the start of the string will be lower cased before comparison, pattern should also be in lower case.

◆ tokenise()

static vector<String>::type Ogre::StringUtil::tokenise ( const String str,
const String delims = "\ " 
)
static

Returns a StringVector that contains all the substrings delimited by the characters in the passed delims argument, or in the doubleDelims argument, which is used to include (normal) delimeters in the tokenised string.

For example, "strings like this".

Parameters
delimsA list of delimiter characters to split by
doubleDelimsA list of double delimeters characters to tokenise by
maxSplitsThe maximum number of splits to perform (0 for unlimited splits). If this parameters is > 0, the splitting process will stop after this many splits, left to right.

◆ toLowerCase()

static void Ogre::StringUtil::toLowerCase ( String str)
static

Lower-cases all the characters in the string.

◆ toTitleCase()

static void Ogre::StringUtil::toTitleCase ( String str)
static

Upper-cases the first letter of each word.

◆ toUpperCase()

static void Ogre::StringUtil::toUpperCase ( String str)
static

Upper-cases all the characters in the string.

◆ trim()

static void Ogre::StringUtil::trim ( String str,
bool  left = true,
bool  right = true 
)
static

Removes any whitespace characters, be it standard space or TABs and so on.

Remarks
The user may specify whether they want to trim only the beginning or the end of the String ( the default action is to trim both).
