/*****************************************************************************************************************
*
* This template provides the basic implementation for all the original
* nsString classes (nsString, nsCString) and serve as the basis for
* thier autostring forms.
*
* DEVELOPMENT NOTES:
*
* 0. Note that I've explictly created interfaces for both the nsString(s),
* and for the nsReadableString (ABT). This will allow the nsString
* form to be optimized (as in the original), while the nsReadable
* interfaces can use a new, more generic approach (including iterators).
* SEE Append() as an example.
*
* 1. Flesh out more of the nsReadableString and nsReadableStringIterator interfaces.
* Note the use of the readableStringIterator in the version of Append() that
* accepts an nsReadableString&. This is because the readableString may have
* almost any form (e.g. segmentString), and we can't rely upon a linear
* layout of buffer memory as we can with nsString class deriviates.
*
* I fully expect this pattern to get replaced with a legitimate form.
*
*
* 2. I don't really think it's necessary to go crazy with virtual methods
* but I've done so for now as a matter of consistency. Once this file
* gets further along, and I have a workable nsAutoString, then I'll start
* backing off from virtual methods whereever possible. Please be patient.
*
* 3. I'm being lazy for the time being, and NOT encoding the buffer-ownership
* flag into the high-order bit of the length field. This needs to be done
* "real soon" but it's not worth doing (today) while I'm still designing.
*
* 4. I explictly implemented the orthodox canonical form.
*
* 5. Before anyone get's too critical of this design, note that I'm using
* the dual-class template form to make interoperability between char*
* and prunichar* obvious. I recognize that it's better to switch to
* an nsReadableString interface, but I've done this for now ONLY to
* make the conversion from our existing nsString class easier. Once
* I get over a few hurdles there, I'll re-examine this approach.
* Once again: please be patient (I'm only 5 hours into this effort).
*
* 6. I've quickly hooked up some of the low level routines (in the
* file nsBufferManager.h). Don't expect it all to work just yet --
* they're mostly placeholders. You CAN already construct and copy
* construct an nsString, nsCString and the autostring forms.
*
* 7. Note that the basic nsString interfaces (append, assign, etc) are not
* perfectly equivalent to the originals. All I tried to do was capture
* the gist of the originals to flesh out these interfaces.
*
* 8. Next Up: Mapping of more nsString functions (insert, delete, the
* boolean operators, the searching methods, etc.
*
* *** NOTE: I've begun to map the existing nsString functions --
* most are empty covers, to be used as a placeholder.
*
* 9. After I'm done with #8, I'll split this implementation into 2 files.
*
* FILE NOTES:
*
* 02.29.2000: Original files (rickg)
* 03.02.2000: Expand the API's to be a bit more realistic (rickg):
* 1. Flesh out the interface to be compatible with old library
* 2. Enable both nsString-based interfaces and nsReadableString interfaces
* 3. Build enough infrastructure to test nsString(s) and nsImmutableString constructions.
