Compile-time string manipulation library for modern C++
This library is header only, you need to include static_string.h
#include <static_string.h>
using namespace snw1;C++14 or later is required
Create static string from string literal
constexpr auto str = "Hello"_ss; // str == "Hello"
constexpr size_t size = sizeof(str); // size == 6, str ends with '\0'Output static string to standard output stream
constexpr auto str = L"Hello"_ss;
std::wcout << str << std::endl;Convert static string to std::string
constexpr auto str = "Hello"_ss;
std::string str1 = to_string(str);Get static string length and size
constexpr auto str = L"Hello"_ss;
constexpr size_t length = str.length(); // length == 5
constexpr size_t size = str.size(); // size == 5Access static string symbols
constexpr auto str = "Hello"_ss;
constexpr char ch1 = str[1]; // ch1 == 'e'
constexpr char ch4 = str[4]; // ch4 == 'o'
constexpr char ch5 = str[5]; // ch5 == '\0'Iterate through static string
constexpr auto str = L"Hello"_ss;
for (size_t i = str.begin(); i != str.end(); ++i) // forward
std::wcout << str[i];
std::wcout << std::endl; // Hello
for (size_t i = str.rbegin(); i != str.rend(); --i) // backward
std::wcout << str[i];
std::wcout << std::endl; // olleHCalculate static string or string literal hash

// hash(s) = (s[0] + 1) + (s[1] + 1) * 33 + ... + (s[n - 1] + 1) * 33 ^ (n - 1) + 5381 * 33 ^ n mod 2 ^ 64Compare two static strings or string literals
