rtl_TextEncoding nEncoding,
sal_uInt32 nFlags );

virtual abstract const volatile template static inline C-linkage
NO NO NO NO NO NO NO YES

Summary
Converts a Unicode string to a byte string, signalling failure.
Parameters
pTarget
  An out parameter receiving the converted string.  Must not be null itself, and
  must contain either null or a pointer to a valid rtl_String; the contents are
  not modified if conversion fails (rtl_convertUStringToString returns false).

  
pSource
  The Unicode string.  May only be null if nLength is zero.

  
nLength
  The length of the Unicode string.  Must be non-negative.

  
nEncoding
  The text encoding to convert into.  Must be an octet encoding (i.e.,
  rtl_isOctetTextEncoding(nEncoding) must return true).

  
nFlags
  A combination of RTL_UNICODETOTEXT_FLAGS that detail how to do the conversion
  (see rtl_convertUnicodeToText).  RTL_UNICODETOTEXT_FLAGS_FLUSH need not be
  included, it is implicitly assumed.  Typical uses are either
  RTL_UNICODETOTEXT_FLAGS_UNDEFINED_ERROR |
  RTL_UNICODETOTEXT_FLAGS_INVALID_ERROR (fail if a Unicode character cannot be
  converted to the target nEncoding) or OUSTRING_TO_OSTRING_CVTFLAGS (make a
  best efforts conversion).

  
Return
True if the conversion succeeded, false otherwise.

Description
First releases any value str might currently hold, then acquires rightValue.
Parameters
str
    pointer to the string.  The pointed-to data must be null or a valid
    string.

    
rightValue
    a valid string.
 

rtl_string_getLength
extern "C"
sal_Int32 rtl_string_getLength(
const rtl_String * str );

virtual abstract const volatile template static inline C-linkage
NO NO NO NO NO NO NO YES

Summary

rtl_string_getToken
extern "C"
sal_Int32 rtl_string_getToken(
rtl_String * * newStr,
rtl_String * str,
sal_Int32 token,
sal_Char cTok,
sal_Int32 idx );

virtual abstract const volatile template static inline C-linkage
NO NO NO NO NO NO NO YES

Summary
Create a new string by extracting a single token from another string.
Description
Starting at index, the token's next token is searched for. If there is no such token, the result is an empty string. Otherwise, all characters from the start of that token and up to, but not including the next occurrence of cTok make up the resulting token. The return value is the position of the next token, or -1 if no more tokens follow. Example code could look like rtl_String * pToken = NULL; sal_Int32 nIndex = 0; do { ... nIndex = rtl_string_getToken(&pToken, pStr, 0, ';', nIndex); ... } while (nIndex >= 0); The new string does not necessarily have a reference count of 1, so it must not be modified without checking the reference count. This function does not handle out-of-memory conditions.
Parameters
newStr
    pointer to the new string.  The pointed-to data must be null or a valid
    string.  If either token or index is negative, an empty token is stored in
    newStr (and -1 is returned).

    
str
    a valid string.

    
token
    the number of the token to return, starting at index.

    
cTok
    the character that seperates the tokens.

    
index
    the position at which searching for the token starts.  Must not be greater
    than the length of str.

    
Return
the index of the next token, or -1 if no more tokens follow.

virtual abstract const volatile template static inline C-linkage
NO NO NO NO NO NO NO YES

Summary
Create a new string by replacing a substring of another string.
Description
The new string results from replacing a number of characters (count), starting at the specified position (index) in the original string (str), with some new substring (subStr). If subStr is null, than only a number of characters is deleted. The new string does not necessarily have a reference count of 1, so it must not be modified without checking the reference count. This function does not handle out-of-memory conditions.

    string.

index
    the index into str at which to start replacement.  Must be between 0 and
    the length of str, inclusive.

    
count
    the number of charcters to remove.  Must not be negative, and the sum of
    index and count must not exceed the length of str.

    
subStr
    either null or a valid string to be inserted.
