Consider spaces special and escape them even in the middle of the string.

This is equivalent to adding the whitespace characters to the special characters lists, except it is guaranteed to use the exact same list of whitespace characters as the rest of libavutil.

Locate the first case-independent occurrence in the string haystack of the string needle.

A zero-length string needle is considered to match at the start of haystack.

This function is a case-insensitive version of the standard strstr().

Parameters

haystack string to search in

needle string to search for

Returns

pointer to the located match within haystack or a null pointer if no match

Locate the first occurrence of the string needle in the string haystack where not more than hay_length characters are searched.

A zero-length string needle is considered to match at the start of haystack.

This function is a length-limited version of the standard strstr().

Parameters

haystack string to search in

needle string to search for

Returns

pointer to the located match within haystack or a null pointer if no match

Copy the string src to dst, but no more than size - 1 bytes, and null-terminate dst.

This function is the same as BSD strlcpy().

Parameters

dst destination buffer

src source string

size size of destination buffer

Returns

the length of src

Warning

since the return value is the length of src, src absolutely must be a properly 0-terminated string, otherwise this will read beyond the end of the buffer and possibly crash.

Append the string src to the string dst, but to a total length of no more than size - 1 bytes, and null-terminate dst.

This function is similar to BSD strlcat(), but differs when size <= strlen(dst).

Parameters

dst destination buffer

src source string

size size of destination buffer

Returns

the total length of src and dst

Warning

since the return value use the length of src and dst, these absolutely must be a properly 0-terminated strings, otherwise this will read beyond the end of the buffer and possibly crash.

Append output to a string, according to a format.

Never write out of the destination buffer, and always put a terminating 0 within the buffer.

Parameters

dst destination buffer (string to which the output is appended)

size total size of the destination buffer

fmt printf-compatible format string, specifying how the following parameters are used

Returns

the length of the string that would have been generated if enough space had been available

Print arguments following specified format into a large enough auto allocated buffer.

It is similar to GNU asprintf().

Parameters

fmt printf-compatible format string, specifying how the following parameters are used.

Returns

the allocated string

Note

You have to free the string yourself with av_free().

Convert a number to a av_malloced string.

Definition at line 138 of file avstring.c.

Unescape the given string until a non escaped terminating char, and return the token corresponding to the unescaped string.

The normal \ and ' escaping is supported. Leading and trailing whitespaces are removed, unless they are escaped with '\' or are enclosed between ''.

Parameters

buf the buffer to parse, buf will be updated to point to the terminating char

term a 0-terminated list of terminating chars

Returns

the malloced unescaped string, which must be av_freed by the user, NULL in case of allocation failure

Split the string into several tokens which can be accessed by successive calls to av_strtok().

A token is defined as a sequence of characters not belonging to the set specified in delim.

On the first call to av_strtok(), s should point to the string to parse, and the value of saveptr is ignored. In subsequent calls, s should be NULL, and saveptr should be unchanged since the previous call.

This function is similar to strtok_r() defined in POSIX.1.

Parameters

s the string to parse, may be NULL

delim 0-terminated list of token delimiters, must be non-NULL

saveptr user-provided pointer which points to stored information necessary for av_strtok() to continue scanning the same string. saveptr is updated to point to the next character after the first delimiter found, or to NULL if the string was terminated

Returns

the found token, or NULL when no token is found

Escape string in src, and put the escaped string in an allocated string in *dst, which must be freed with av_free().

Parameters

dst pointer where an allocated string is put

src string to escape, must be non-NULL

special_chars string containing the special characters which need to be escaped, can be NULL

mode escape mode to employ, see AV_ESCAPE_MODE_* macros. Any unknown value for mode will be considered equivalent to AV_ESCAPE_MODE_BACKSLASH, but this behaviour can change without notice.

flags flags which control how to escape, see AV_ESCAPE_FLAG_ macros

Returns

the length of the allocated string, or a negative error code in case of error
