Detailed Description

String-related utility functions.

Function Documentation

doubleToStr()

const char* doubleToStr	(	char *	pStr,
		int32	nSize,
		double	fVal
	)

Convert a double to string using the C locale.

Parameters

[in]	pStr	The buffer to contain the string
[in]	nSize	The size of the preallocated pStr buffer
[in]	fVal	The value to convert

Returns

a pointer to pStr

Note

The buffer pointed to by pStr should be big enough to store the string result otherwise "0" is returned. This function is needed to create locale independent printed floats for PostScript.

strToDouble()

double strToDouble	(	char *	pStr,
		char **	ppEndStr
	)

Implementation of strtod() using the C locale.

Parameters

[in]	pStr	Null-terminated string to convert
[out]	ppEndStr	Pointer to character that stops scan

Returns

the value of the floating-point number, except when the representation would cause an overflow, in which case it returns +/- HUGE_VAL.

Note

Equivalent to strtod_l(pStr, ppEndStr, NULL) which is available as part of the Standard C library but not available on all platforms.

utl_strdup()

uint8* utl_strdup

(

uint8 *

str

)

Simple version of strdup() since some platforms don't have it.

Parameters

[in]

str

Zero-terminated string to duplicate.

Returns

A new copy of input string str, or NULL if memory could not be allocated. If this function succeeds, it is the caller's responsibility to free the returned pointer using MemFree().
