Returns a reference to one of the strings in the array.
This lets you modify a string in-place in the array, but you must be sure that the index is in-range.

bool StringArray::addIfNotAlreadyThere | ( | const String & | stringToAdd, |

The search can optionally be case-insensitive.

int StringArray::addTokens | ( | StringRef | stringToTokenise, |
bool | preserveQuotedStrings ) |

This will tokenise the given string using whitespace characters as the token delimiters, and will add these tokens to the end of the array.
Referenced by Rectangle< ValueType >::fromString().
int StringArray::addTokens | ( | StringRef | stringToTokenise, |
StringRef | breakCharacters, | ||
StringRef | quoteCharacters ) |
Breaks up a string into tokens and adds them to this array.
This will tokenise the given string (using the string passed in to define the token delimiters), and will add these tokens to the end of the array.
stringToTokenise | the string to tokenise |
breakCharacters | a string of characters, any of which will be considered to be a token delimiter. |
quoteCharacters | if this string isn't empty, it defines a set of characters which are treated as quotes. Any text occurring between quotes is not broken up into tokens. |
int StringArray::addLines | ( | StringRef | stringToBreakUp | ) |
Breaks up a string into lines and adds them to this array.
This breaks a string down into lines separated by \n or \r\n, and adds each line to the array. Line-break characters are omitted from the strings that are added to the array.
|
static |
Returns an array containing the tokens in a given string.
This will tokenise the given string using whitespace characters as the token delimiters, and return the parsed tokens as an array.
|
static |
Returns an array containing the tokens in a given string.
This will tokenise the given string using the breakCharacters string to define the token delimiters, and will return the parsed tokens as an array.
stringToTokenise | the string to tokenise |
breakCharacters | a string of characters, any of which will be considered to be a token delimiter. |
quoteCharacters | if this string isn't empty, it defines a set of characters which are treated as quotes. Any text occurring between quotes is not broken up into tokens. |
|
static |
Returns an array containing the lines in a given string.
This breaks a string down into lines separated by \n or \r\n, and returns an array containing these lines. Line-break characters are omitted from the strings that are added to the array.
void StringArray::clear | ( | ) |
Removes all elements from the array.
Referenced by ComponentPeer::DragInfo::clear().
void StringArray::clearQuick | ( | ) |
Removes all elements from the array without freeing the array's allocated storage.
void StringArray::remove | ( | int | index | ) |
Removes a string from the array.
If the index is out-of-range, no action will be taken.
void StringArray::removeString | ( | StringRef | stringToRemove, |
bool | ignoreCase = false ) |
Finds a string in the array and removes it.
This will remove all occurrences of the given string from the array. The comparison may be case-insensitive depending on the ignoreCase parameter.
void StringArray::removeRange | ( | int | startIndex, |
int | numberToRemove ) |
Removes a range of elements from the array.
This will remove a set of elements, starting from the given index, and move subsequent elements down to close the gap.
If the range extends beyond the bounds of the array, it will be safely clipped to the size of the array.
startIndex | the index of the first element to remove |
numberToRemove | how many elements should be removed |
void StringArray::removeDuplicates | ( | bool | ignoreCase | ) |
Removes any duplicated elements from the array.
If any string appears in the array more than once, only the first occurrence of it will be retained.
ignoreCase | whether to use a case-insensitive comparison |
void StringArray::removeEmptyStrings | ( | bool | removeWhitespaceStrings = true | ) |
Removes empty strings from the array.
removeWhitespaceStrings | if true, strings that only contain whitespace characters will also be removed |
|
noexcept |
Moves one of the strings to a different position.
This will move the string to a specified index, shuffling along any intervening elements as required.
So for example, if you have the array { 0, 1, 2, 3, 4, 5 } then calling move (2, 4) would result in { 0, 1, 3, 4, 2, 5 }.
currentIndex | the index of the value to be moved. If this isn't a valid index, then nothing will be done |
newIndex | the index at which you'd like this value to end up. If this is less than zero, the value will be moved to the end of the array |
void StringArray::trim | ( | ) |
Deletes any whitespace characters from the starts and ends of all the strings.
void StringArray::appendNumbersToDuplicates | ( | bool | ignoreCaseWhenComparing, |
bool | appendNumberToFirstInstance, | ||
CharPointer_UTF8 | preNumberString = CharPointer_UTF8(nullptr), | ||
CharPointer_UTF8 | postNumberString = CharPointer_UTF8(nullptr) ) |
Adds numbers to the strings in the array, to make each string unique.
This will add numbers to the ends of groups of similar strings. e.g. if there are two "moose" strings, they will become "moose (1)" and "moose (2)"
ignoreCaseWhenComparing | whether the comparison used is case-insensitive |
appendNumberToFirstInstance | whether the first of a group of similar strings also has a number appended to it. |
preNumberString | when adding a number, this string is added before the number. If you pass nullptr, a default string will be used, which adds brackets around the number. |
postNumberString | this string is appended after any numbers that are added. If you pass nullptr, a default string will be used, which adds brackets around the number. |
String StringArray::joinIntoString | ( | StringRef | separatorString, |
int | startIndex = 0, | ||
int | numberOfElements = -1 ) const |
Joins the strings in the array together into one string.
This will join a range of elements from the array into a string, separating them with a given string.
e.g. joinIntoString (",") will turn an array of "a" "b" and "c" into "a,b,c".
separatorString | the string to insert between all the strings |
startIndex | the first element to join |
numberOfElements | how many elements to join together. If this is less than zero, all available elements will be used. |
void StringArray::sort | ( | bool | ignoreCase | ) |
Sorts the array into alphabetical order.
ignoreCase | if true, the comparisons used will not be case-sensitive. |
void StringArray::sortNatural | ( | ) |
Sorts the array using extra language-aware rules to do a better job of comparing words containing spaces and numbers.
void StringArray::ensureStorageAllocated | ( | int | minNumElements | ) |
Increases the array's internal storage to hold a minimum number of elements.
Calling this before adding a large known number of elements means that the array won't have to keep dynamically resizing itself as the elements are added, and it'll therefore be more efficient.
void StringArray::minimiseStorageOverheads | ( | ) |
Reduces the amount of storage being used by the array.
Arrays typically allocate slightly more storage than they need, and after removing elements, they may have quite a lot of unused space allocated. This method will reduce the amount of allocated storage to a minimum.
This is the array holding the actual strings.
This is public to allow direct access to array methods that may not already be provided by the StringArray class.
