Let's make it clear that these functions deal with ASCII case only.
|

This adds the the method DeprecatedString::find_last() as wrapper for
StringUtils::find_last for the StringView type.

DeprecatedString (formerly String) has been with us since the start,
and it has served us well. However, it has a number of shortcomings
that I'd like to address.
Some of these issues are hard if not impossible to solve incrementally
inside of DeprecatedString, so instead of doing that, let's build a new
String class and then incrementally move over to it instead.
Problems in DeprecatedString:
- It assumes string allocation never fails. This makes it impossible
to use in allocation-sensitive contexts, and is the reason we had to
ban DeprecatedString from the kernel entirely.
- The awkward null state. DeprecatedString can be null. It's different
from the empty state, although null strings are considered empty.
All code is immediately nicer when using Optional<DeprecatedString>
but DeprecatedString came before Optional, which is how we ended up
like this.
- The encoding of the underlying data is ambiguous. For the most part,
we use it as if it's always UTF-8, but there have been cases where
we pass around strings in other encodings (e.g ISO8859-1)
- operator[] and length() are used to iterate over DeprecatedString one
byte at a time. This is done all over the codebase, and will *not*
give the right results unless the string is all ASCII.
How we solve these issues in the new String:
- Functions that may allocate now return ErrorOr<String> so that ENOMEM
errors can be passed to the caller.
- String has no null state. Use Optional<String> when needed.
- String is always UTF-8. This is validated when constructing a String.
We may need to add a bypass for this in the future, for cases where
you have a known-good string, but for now: validate all the things!
- There is no operator[] or length(). You can get the underlying data
with bytes(), but for iterating over code points, you should be using
an UTF-8 iterator.
Furthermore, it has two nifty new features:
- String implements a small string optimization (SSO) for strings that
can fit entirely within a pointer. This means up to 3 bytes on 32-bit
platforms, and 7 bytes on 64-bit platforms. Such small strings will
not be heap-allocated.
- String can create substrings without making a deep copy of the
substring. Instead, the superstring gets +1 refcount from the
substring, and it acts like a view into the superstring. To make
substrings like this, use the substring_with_shared_superstring() API.
One caveat:
- String does not guarantee that the underlying data is null-terminated
like DeprecatedString does today. While this was nifty in a handful of
places where we were calling C functions, it did stand in the way of
shared-superstring substrings.

We have a new, improved string type coming up in AK (OOM aware, no null
state), and while it's going to use UTF-8, the name UTF8String is a
mouthful - so let's free up the String name by renaming the existing
class.
Making the old one have an annoying name will hopefully also help with
quick adoption :^)

This patch adds the `USING_AK_GLOBALLY` macro which is enabled by
default, but can be overridden by build flags.
This is a step towards integrating Jakt and AK types.

C++20 can automatically synthesize `operator!=` from `operator==`, so
there is no point in writing such functions by hand if all they do is
call through to `operator==`.
This fixes a compile error with compilers that implement P2468 (Clang
16 currently). This paper restores the C++17 behavior that if both
`T::operator==(U)` and `T::operator!=(U)` exist, `U == T` won't be
rewritten in reverse to call `T::operator==(U)`. Removing `!=` operators
makes the rewriting possible again.

These are guarded with #ifndef KERNEL, since doubles (and floats) are
not allowed in KERNEL mode.
In StringUtils there is convert_to_floating_point which does have a
template parameter incase you have a templated type.

This commit has no behavior changes.
In particular, this does not fix any of the wrong uses of the previous
default parameter (which used to be 'false', meaning "only replace the
first occurence in the string"). It simply replaces the default uses by
String::replace(..., ReplaceMode::FirstOnly), leaving them incorrect.

In the given String, invert_case() swaps lowercase characters with
uppercase ones and vice versa.

This removes the awkward String::replace API which was the only String
API which mutated the String and replaces it with a new immutable
version that returns a new String with the replacements applied. This
also fixes a couple of UAFs that were caused by the use of this API.
As an optimization an equivalent StringView::replace API was also added
to remove an unnecessary String allocations in the format of:
`String { view }.replace(...);`
|

This was needlessly copying StringView arguments, and was also using
strstr internally, which meant it was doing a bunch of unnecessary
strlen calls on it. This also moves the implementation to StringUtils
to allow API consistency between String and StringView.
|
|
This implementation preserves consecutive spaces in the orginal string.
|
|
This implements StringUtils::find_any_of() and uses it in
String::find_any_of() and StringView::find_any_of(). All uses of
find_{first,last}_of have been replaced with find_any_of(), find() or
find_last(). find_{first,last}_of have subsequently been removed.
|

This patch reimplements the StringView::find methods in StringUtils, so
they can also be used by String. The methods now also take an optional
start parameter, which moves their API in line with String's respective
methods.
This also implements a StringView::find_ast(char) method, which is
currently functionally equivalent to find_last_of(char). This is because
find_last_of(char) will be removed in a further commit.
|
|
This behavior might not always be desirable, and so this patch adds a
way to disable it.
|
|
The methods added make it possible to use the trim mechanism with
specified characters, unlike trim_whitespace(), which uses predefined
characters.

This was done with the `ambr` search and replace tool.

This is an improved version of WrapperGenerator's snake_name(), which
seems like the kind of thing that could be useful elsewhere but would
end up getting duplicated - so let's add this to AK::String instead,
like to_{lowercase,uppercase}().
|
|
I personally mistook `find_first_of(StringView)` to be analogous to this
so let's add a `find()` method that actually searches the string.
|

+Tests!

|
|
Also, rewrite StringUtils::match(), because the old implementation was
fairly broken, e.g. "acdcxb" would *not* match "a*?b".
|
|
|
|
No behaviour change; also patches use of `String::TrimMode` in LibJS.

Get rid of the weird old signature:
- int StringType::to_int(bool& ok) const
And replace it with sensible new signature:
- Optional<int> StringType::to_int() const
|
|
FileSystemPath::has_extension was jumping through hoops and allocating
memory to do a case insensitive comparison needlessly. Extend the
existing String::ends_with method to allow the caller to specify the
case sensitivity required.

Centralizing so it can be used by other string implementations
|
|
New method to convert hex string unsigned integer.
|
|
And share the code with String by moving the logic to StringUtils. :^)

Provide wrappers in String and StringView. Add some tests for the
implementations.
