This class provides UTF-8 string manipulation methods.
Deze klasse is statisch.
Statische methode
Byte
|
This is a synonymous of the Pos method.
|
Chr
|
Returns a character from its Unicode value. It is UTF-8 encoded.
|
Code
|
Returns the Unicode value of a character inside an UTF-8 string.
|
Comp
|
Compares two UTF-8 strings, and returns:
|
InStr
|
Returns the position of the first occurrence of Pattern in String.
|
Index
|
Returns the index of the character at position Pos in the string.
|
IsValid
|
Return TRUE if String is a valid UTF-8 string.
|
LCase
|
Returns an UTF-8 string converted to lower case.
|
Left
|
Returns the Length first characters of an UTF-8 string.
|
Len
|
Returns the length of an UTF-8 string in characters.
|
Lower
|
This is a synonymous for the String.LCase method.
|
Mid
|
Returns a substring containing the Length characters from the position Start.
|
Pos
|
Returns the position of the character of index Index in the string.
|
RInStr
|
Returns the position of the last occurrence of Pattern in String.
|
Right
|
Returns the Length last characters of an UTF-8 string.
|
UCase
|
Returns an UTF-8 string converted to upper case.
|
UCaseFirst
|
Return the string with its first letter converted to upper case.
|
Upper
|
This is a synonymous for the String.UCase method.
|
Be careful because standard Gambas string routines only deal with ASCII strings.
To use a non-UTF8 string you must first convert it with
Conv$.
Example
DIM hFile AS Stream
DIM sOneNonUTF8Line AS String
DIM sUTF8Line as String
' Print a WINDOWS-1253 text file to standard output
hFile = OPEN "/home/ilias/sometextingreekWINDOWS-1253.txt" FOR INPUT
WHILE NOT Eof(hFile)
LINE INPUT #hFile, sOneNonUTF8Line
sUTF8Line = Conv$(sOneNonUTF8Line, "WINDOWS-1253", "UTF-8")
PRINT sUTF8Line
'alternatively
'LINE INPUT #hFile, sOneNonUTF8Line
'PRINT Conv$(sOneNonUTF8Line, "WINDOWS-1253", "UTF-8")
WEND
FINALLY ' Always executed, even if an error is raised
CLOSE #hFile
CATCH ' Executed only if there is an error
PRINT "Cannot print or read or convert lines from file "; "/home/ilias/sometextingreekWINDOWS-1253.txt"
