StrRef::Set( char * )

Set a StrRef to reference an existing null-terminated string.

Virtual?	No
Class	`StrRef`
Arguments	`char *buf`	the null-terminated string to reference
Returns	`void`

Notes

StrRef::Set() does not copy the target string; it simply establishes a pointer to it. Be sure that the StrRef pointing to the target string does not outlive the target string.

Example

Copy

#include &lt;iostream&gt;

#include &lt;stdhdrs.h&gt;
#include &lt;strbuf.h&gt;

int main( int argc, char **argv )
{
    char chars[] = "xyz";
    StrRef sr;

    sr.Set( chars );

    cout &lt;&lt; "chars[] = \"" &lt;&lt; chars &lt;&lt; "\"\n";
    cout &lt;&lt; "sr.Text() returns \"" &lt;&lt; sr.Text() &lt;&lt; "'\"n";
}

Executing the preceding code produces the following output:

chars[] = "xyz"
sr.Text() returns "xyz"
