Static Members

Name

Description

npos

A special index.

static_capacity

Maximum size of the string excluding any null terminator.

Description

These objects behave like std::string except that the storage is not dynamically allocated but rather fixed in size, and stored in the object itself. These strings offer performance advantages when an algorithm can execute with a reasonable upper limit on the size of a value.

Aliases

The following alias templates are provided for convenience:

template <std:: size_t N>
using static_string =
  basic_static_string<N, char, std::char_traits<char>>;
template <std:: size_t N>
using static_wstring =
  basic_static_string<N, wchar_t, std::char_traits<wchar_t>>;
template <std:: size_t N>
using static_u16string =
  basic_static_string<N, char16_t, std::char_traits<char16_t>>;
template <std:: size_t N>
using static_u32string =
  basic_static_string<N, char32_t, std::char_traits<char32_t>>;

Addtionally, the alias template static_u8string is provided in C++20

template <std:: size_t N>
using static_u8string =
  basic_static_string<N, char8_t, std::char_traits<char8_t>>;
