pub struct OsString { /* fields omitted */ }
A type that can represent owned, mutable platform-native strings, but is
cheaply inter-convertible with Rust strings.
The need for this type arises from the fact that:
-
On Unix systems, strings are often arbitrary sequences of non-zero
bytes, in many cases interpreted as UTF-8.
-
On Windows, strings are often arbitrary sequences of non-zero 16-bit
values, interpreted as UTF-16 when it is valid to do so.
-
In Rust, strings are always valid UTF-8, which may contain zeros.
OsString
and OsStr
bridge this gap by simultaneously representing Rust
and platform-native string values, and in particular allowing a Rust string
to be converted into an "OS" string with no cost if possible.
OsString
is to &OsStr
as String
is to &str
: the former
in each pair are owned strings; the latter are borrowed
references.
From a Rust string: OsString
implements
From
<
String
>
, so you can use my_string.from
to
create an OsString
from a normal Rust string.
From slices: Just like you can start with an empty Rust
String
and then push_str
&str
sub-string slices into it, you can create an empty OsString
with
the new
method and then push string slices into it with the
push
method.
You can use the as_os_str
method to get an &
OsStr
from
an OsString
; this is effectively a borrowed reference to the
whole string.
See the [module's toplevel documentation about conversions][conversions] for a discussion on
the traits which OsString
implements for conversions from/to native representations.
Constructs a new empty OsString
.
use std::ffi::OsString;
let os_string = OsString::new();Run
Converts to an OsStr
slice.
use std::ffi::{OsString, OsStr};
let os_string = OsString::from("foo");
let os_str = OsStr::new("foo");
assert_eq!(os_string.as_os_str(), os_str);Run
Converts the OsString
into a String
if it contains valid Unicode data.
On failure, ownership of the original OsString
is returned.
use std::ffi::OsString;
let os_string = OsString::from("foo");
let string = os_string.into_string();
assert_eq!(string, Ok(String::from("foo")));Run
Extends the string with the given &OsStr
slice.
use std::ffi::OsString;
let mut os_string = OsString::from("foo");
os_string.push("bar");
assert_eq!(&os_string, "foobar");Run
Creates a new OsString
with the given capacity.
The string will be able to hold exactly capacity
length units of other
OS strings without reallocating. If capacity
is 0, the string will not
allocate.
See main OsString
documentation information about encoding.
use std::ffi::OsString;
let mut os_string = OsString::with_capacity(10);
let capacity = os_string.capacity();
os_string.push("foo");
assert_eq!(capacity, os_string.capacity());Run
Truncates the OsString
to zero length.
use std::ffi::OsString;
let mut os_string = OsString::from("foo");
assert_eq!(&os_string, "foo");
os_string.clear();
assert_eq!(&os_string, "");Run
Returns the capacity this OsString
can hold without reallocating.
See OsString
introduction for information about encoding.
use std::ffi::OsString;
let mut os_string = OsString::with_capacity(10);
assert!(os_string.capacity() >= 10);Run
Reserves capacity for at least additional
more capacity to be inserted
in the given OsString
.
The collection may reserve more space to avoid frequent reallocations.
use std::ffi::OsString;
let mut s = OsString::new();
s.reserve(10);
assert!(s.capacity() >= 10);Run
Reserves the minimum capacity for exactly additional
more capacity to
be inserted in the given OsString
. Does nothing if the capacity is
already sufficient.
Note that the allocator may give the collection more space than it
requests. Therefore capacity can not be relied upon to be precisely
minimal. Prefer reserve if future insertions are expected.
use std::ffi::OsString;
let mut s = OsString::new();
s.reserve_exact(10);
assert!(s.capacity() >= 10);Run
Shrinks the capacity of the OsString
to match its length.
use std::ffi::OsString;
let mut s = OsString::from("foo");
s.reserve(100);
assert!(s.capacity() >= 100);
s.shrink_to_fit();
assert_eq!(3, s.capacity());Run
🔬 This is a nightly-only experimental API. (shrink_to
)
new API
Shrinks the capacity of the OsString
with a lower bound.
The capacity will remain at least as large as both the length
and the supplied value.
Panics if the current capacity is smaller than the supplied
minimum capacity.
#![feature(shrink_to)]
use std::ffi::OsString;
let mut s = OsString::from("foo");
s.reserve(100);
assert!(s.capacity() >= 100);
s.shrink_to(10);
assert!(s.capacity() >= 10);
s.shrink_to(0);
assert!(s.capacity() >= 3);Run
Converts this OsString
into a boxed OsStr
.
use std::ffi::{OsString, OsStr};
let s = OsString::from("hello");
let b: Box<OsStr> = s.into_boxed_os_str();Run
[−]
Yields a &str
slice if the OsStr
is valid Unicode.
This conversion may entail doing a check for UTF-8 validity.
use std::ffi::OsStr;
let os_str = OsStr::new("foo");
assert_eq!(os_str.to_str(), Some("foo"));Run
[−]
Converts an OsStr
to a Cow
<
str
>
.
Any non-Unicode sequences are replaced with U+FFFD REPLACEMENT CHARACTER.
Calling to_string_lossy
on an OsStr
with valid unicode:
use std::ffi::OsStr;
let os_str = OsStr::new("foo");
assert_eq!(os_str.to_string_lossy(), "foo");Run
Had os_str
contained invalid unicode, the to_string_lossy
call might
have returned "fo�"
.
[−]
Copies the slice into an owned OsString
.
use std::ffi::{OsStr, OsString};
let os_str = OsStr::new("foo");
let os_string = os_str.to_os_string();
assert_eq!(os_string, OsString::from("foo"));Run
[−]
Checks whether the OsStr
is empty.
use std::ffi::OsStr;
let os_str = OsStr::new("");
assert!(os_str.is_empty());
let os_str = OsStr::new("foo");
assert!(!os_str.is_empty());Run
[−]
Returns the length of this OsStr
.
Note that this does not return the number of bytes in this string
as, for example, OS strings on Windows are encoded as a list of u16
rather than a list of bytes. This number is simply useful for passing to
other methods like OsString::with_capacity
to avoid reallocations.
See OsStr
introduction for more information about encoding.
use std::ffi::OsStr;
let os_str = OsStr::new("");
assert_eq!(os_str.len(), 0);
let os_str = OsStr::new("foo");
assert_eq!(os_str.len(), 3);Run
