StrForeachPtrIdx
Description
Iterate over each character pointer chrptr
of the given Str str
at each index idx
. This macro is a direct alias for VecForeachPtrIdx
specialized for Str. The variables chrptr
and idx
are declared and defined by the underlying macro.
Parameters
Name | Direction | Description |
---|---|---|
str | in,out | Str to iterate over. |
chrptr | in | Name of the pointer variable to be used which will point to the character at the iterated index idx . The type of chrptr will likely be a pointer to the character type used by the Str implementation (e.g., char* ). |
idx | in | Name of the variable to be used for iterating over indices (i64). |
Usage example (Cross-references)
// Deadend test: Make idx go out of bounds in StrForeachPtrIdx by modifying string during iteration
bool test_str_foreach_ptr_idx_out_of_bounds_access(void) {
printf("Testing StrForeachPtrIdx where idx goes out of bounds (should crash)\n");
Str s = StrInitFromZstr("Programming Test"); // 16 characters
// StrForeachPtrIdx (VecForeachPtrIdx) has explicit bounds checking: if ((idx) >= (v)->length) LOG_FATAL(...)
StrForeachPtrIdx(&s, chr_ptr, idx, {
printf("Accessing idx %zu (s.length=%zu): '%c'\n", idx, s.length, *chr_ptr);
// Test StrForeachPtrIdx macro
bool test_str_foreach_ptr_idx(void) {
printf("Testing StrForeachPtrIdx\n");
Str s = StrInitFromZstr("Hello");
// Build a new string by iterating through each character pointer with its index
Str result = StrInit();
StrForeachPtrIdx(&s, chrptr, idx, {
// Append the character (via pointer) and its index to the result string
StrWriteFmt(&result, "{c}{}", *chrptr, idx);
