unix_str

Unix-compatible strings regardless of platform, including #![no_std] environents. This crate is extracted from std.

Features

• shrink_to: implements the unstable shrink_to method;
• unixstring_ascii: ASCII transformations, std's unstable feature;
• toowned_clone_into: implements ToOwned::clone_into, an unstable method;
• alloc: implements UnixString and transformations with Box, Rc and Arc;
• std: an alias for alloc.

lib.rs:

Strings that are compatible wuth Unix-like operating systems.

• UnixString and UnixStr are useful when you need to with Unix strings. Conversions between UnixString, UnixStr and Rust strings work similarly to those for CString and CStr.

• UnixString represents an owned string in Unix's preferred representation.

• UnixStr represents a borrowed reference to a string in a format that can be passed to a Unix-lie operating system. It can be converted into a UTF-8 Rust string slice in a similar way to UnixString.

Conversions

UnixStr implements two methods, from_bytes and as_bytes. These do inexpensive conversions from and to UTF-8 byte slices.

Additionally, UnixString provides from_vec and into_vec methods that consume their arguments, and take or produce vectors of [u8].
