## Detailed Description

This class implements the basic string we use in the DOM.

We do not use QString for 2 reasons: Memory overhead, and the missing explicit sharing of strings we need for the DOM.

All DOMStrings are explicitly shared (they behave like pointers), meaning that modifications to one instance will also modify all others. If you wish to get a DOMString that is independent, use copy().

## Constructor & Destructor Documentation

DOMString::DOMString | ( |  | ) |

| default constructor. Gives an empty DOMString Definition at line 29 of file dom_string.cpp. Referenced by lower(), split(), and upper().

## Member Function Documentation

DOMString & DOMString::operator+= | ( | const DOMString & | str | ) |

| append str to this string Definition at line 89 of file dom_string.cpp. References impl.

DOMString DOMString::operator+ | ( | const DOMString & | str | ) |

| add two DOMString's Definition at line 109 of file dom_string.cpp. References copy(), and impl.

const QChar & DOMString::operator[] | ( | unsigned int | i | ) | const

| The character at position i of the DOMString. If i >= length(), the character returned will be 0. Definition at line 134 of file dom_string.cpp.

DOMString DOMString::split | ( | unsigned int | pos | ) |

| Splits the string into two. The original string gets truncated to pos, and the rest is returned. Definition at line 171 of file dom_string.cpp. References DOMString().

DOMString DOMString::lower | ( |  | ) | const

| Returns a lowercase version of the string. Definition at line 177 of file dom_string.cpp. References DOMString().

DOMString DOMString::upper | ( |  | ) | const

| Returns an uppercase version of the string. Definition at line 183 of file dom_string.cpp. References DOMString(). Referenced by DOM::Node::isSupported().
