◆ SkipGarbage()

static std::string_view SkipGarbage ( std::string_view str )

static

Skip some of the 'garbage' in the string that we don't want to use to sort on.

This way the alphabetical sorting will work better as we would be actually using those characters instead of some other characters such as spaces and tildes at the begin of the name.

Parameters

		StringValidationSettings	settings
	)

static

Copies the valid (UTF-8) characters from str up to last to the dst.

Depending on the settings invalid characters can be replaced with a question mark, as well as determining what characters are deemed invalid.

◆ StrValid()

bool StrValid ( std::span< const char > str )

Checks whether the given string is valid, i.e.

contains only valid (printable) characters and is properly terminated.

Note: std::span is used instead of std::string_view as we are validating fixed-length string buffers, and std::string_view's constructor will assume a C-string that ends with a NUL terminator, which is one of the things we are checking.

Parameters

str	Span of chars to validate.
