CStrBufT Class

This class provides automatic resource cleanup for GetBuffer and ReleaseBuffer calls on an existing CStringT object.

Syntax

template<typename TCharType>
class CStrBufT

Parameters

TCharType
The character type of the CStrBufT class. Can be one of the following:

  • char (for ANSI character strings)

  • wchar_t (for Unicode character strings)

  • TCHAR (for both ANSI and Unicode character strings)

Members

Public Typedefs

Name Description
PCXSTR A pointer to a constant string.
PXSTR A pointer to a string.
StringType The string type whose buffer is to be manipulated by specializations of this class template.

Public Constructors

Name Description
CStrBufT::CStrBufT The constructor for the string buffer object.

Public Methods

Name Description
CStrBufT::SetLength Sets the character buffer length of the associated string object.

Public Operators

Name Description
CStrBufT::operator PCXSTR Retrieves a const pointer to the character buffer of the associated string object.
CStrBufT::operator PXSTR Retrieves a pointer to the character buffer of the associated string object.

Public Constants

Name Description
CStrBufT::AUTO_LENGTH Automatically determine the new length of the string at release.
CStrBufT::SET_LENGTH Set the length of the string object at GetBuffer time

Remarks

This class is used as a wrapper class for replacing calls to GetBuffer and ReleaseBuffer, or GetBufferSetLength and ReleaseBuffer.

Primarily designed as a helper class, CStrBufT provides a convenient way for a developer to work with the character buffer of a string object without worrying about how or when to call ReleaseBuffer. This is possible because the wrapper object goes out of scope naturally in the case of an exception or multiple exiting code paths; causing its destructor to free the string resource.

Requirements

Header: atlsimpstr.h

CStrBufT::AUTO_LENGTH

Automatically determine the new length of the string at release.

static const DWORD AUTO_LENGTH = 0x01;

Remarks

Automatically determine the new length of the string at release. The string must be null-terminated.

CStrBufT::CStrBufT

Constructs a buffer object.

CStrBufT(StringType& str, int nMinLength, DWORD dwFlags = AUTO_LENGTH) throw(...);
explicit CStrBufT(StringType& str) throw(...);

Parameters

str
The string object associated with the buffer. Typically, the developer will use the predefined typedefs of CStrBuf (TCHAR variant), CStrBufA (char variant) and CStrBufW (wchar_t variant).

nMinLength
The minimum length of the character buffer.

dwFlags
Determines if the string length is automatically determined. Can be one of the following:

Remarks

Creates a string buffer for the associated string object. During construction, CSimpleStringT::GetBuffer or CSimpleStringT::GetBufferSetLength is called.

Note that the copy constructor is private.

CStrBufT::operator PCXSTR

Directly accesses characters stored in the associated string object as a C-style string.

operator PCXSTR() const throw();

Return Value

A character pointer to the string's data.

Remarks

Call this function to return a pointer to the character buffer of a string object. The contents of the string object cannot be changed with this pointer.

CStrBufT::operator PXSTR

Directly accesses characters stored in the associated string object as a C-style string.

operator PXSTR() throw();

Return Value

A character pointer to the string's data.

Remarks

Call this function to return a pointer to the character buffer of a string object. The developer may change the contents of the string object with this pointer.

CStrBufT::PCXSTR

A pointer to a constant string.

typedef CSimpleStringT<TCharType>::PCXSTR PCXSTR;

CStrBufT::PXSTR

A pointer to a string.

typedef CSimpleStringT<TCharType>::PXSTR PXSTR;

CStrBufT::SET_LENGTH

Set the length of the string object at GetBuffer time.

static const DWORD SET_LENGTH = 0x02;

Remarks

Set the length of the string object at GetBuffer time.

Determines if CSimpleStringT::GetBuffer and CSimpleStringT::GetBufferSetLength are called when the string buffer object is constructed.

CStrBufT::SetLength

Sets the length of the character buffer.

void SetLength(int nLength);

Parameters

nLength
The new length of the character buffer of the string object.

Note

Must be less than or equal to the minimum buffer length specified in the constructor of CStrBufT.

Remarks

Call this function to set the length of the string represented by the buffer object.

CStrBufT::StringType

The string type whose buffer is to be manipulated by specializations of this class template.

typedef CSimpleStringT<TCharType> StringType;

Remarks

TCharType is the character type used to specialize the class template.
