Given that the length of the buffer is known, it's often better to 9 * use the mem* functions than a str* one (memchr vs. strchr e.g.). 10 * Though, one has to be careful about the fact that str* functions often 11 * stop on NULs and that strbufs may have embedded NULs. 12 * 13 * A strbuf is NUL terminated for convenience, but no function in the 14 * strbuf API actually relies on the string being free of NULs. 15 * 16 * strbufs have some invariants that are very important to keep in mind: 17 * 18 * - The `buf` member is never NULL, so it can be used in any usual C 19 * string operations safely. strbuf's _have_ to be initialized either by 20 * `strbuf_init()` or by `= STRBUF_INIT` before the invariants, though. 21 * 22 * Do *not* assume anything on what `buf` really is (e.g. if it is 23 * allocated memory or not), use `strbuf_detach()` to unwrap a memory 24 * buffer from its strbuf shell in a safe way. That is the sole supported 25 * way. This will give you a malloced buffer that you can later `free()`. 26 * 27 * However, it is totally safe to modify anything in the string pointed by 28 * the `buf` member, between the indices `0` and `len-1` (inclusive). 29 * 30 * - The `buf` member is a byte array that has at least `len + 1` bytes 31 * allocated. The extra byte is used to store a `'\0'`, allowing the 32 * `buf` member to be a valid C-string. Every strbuf function ensure this 33 * invariant is preserved. 34 * 35 * NOTE: It is OK to "play" with the buffer directly if you work it this 36 * way: 37 * 38 * strbuf_grow(sb, SOME_SIZE); <1> 39 * strbuf_setlen(sb, sb->len + SOME_OTHER_SIZE); 40 * 41 * <1> Here, the memory array starting at `sb->buf`, and of length 42 * `strbuf_avail(sb)` is all yours, and you can be sure that 43 * `strbuf_avail(sb)` is at least `SOME_SIZE`. 44 * 45 * NOTE: `SOME_OTHER_SIZE` must be smaller or equal to `strbuf_avail(sb)`. 46 * 47 * Doing so is safe, though if it has to be done in many places, adding the 48 * missing API to the strbuf module is the way to go. 49 * 50 * WARNING: Do _not_ assume that the area that is yours is of size `alloc 51 * - 1` even if it's true in the current implementation. Alloc is somehow a 52 * "private" member that should not be messed with.
