Header-only library providing unicode aware string support for C++

CsString

Introduction

CsString is a standalone library which provides unicode aware string support.

The CsBasicString class is a templated class which provides unicode aware string support. The encoding, such as UTF-8 or UTF-16, is passed to the CsBasicString template. The following typedefs are provided for convenience.

using CsString       = CsBasicString<utf8>;
using CsString_utf8  = CsBasicString<utf8>;
using CsString_utf16 = CsBasicString<utf16>;

System Requirements

To use CsString you will need a C++17 compiler and a C++17 standard library.

Currently uses the CMake build system for building and running the unit test suite. The library has been tested with clang sanitizer and a major code review.
