Synopsis

The MUString is a class with a String and an embedded pointer. It can be used to linearly analyse a string for its semantics. Imagine for instance a string that represents an angle. It could be formatted as [+-]hh:mm:ss.ttt or as [+-]hh[hH]mm[mM] or as [+-]dd.mm.ss.ttt or with .'s replaced with dms or as [+-]ddd.fff deg etc.
The available methods aid in analysing this string (see example).
The following analysis method classes are avaible:

construct – all constructors create a string with the pointer starting at the beginning of the string
testX(arg) – all test methods test if the next available character(s) fulfill the specified argument test. E.g. Bool testSign() test if current character is + or -. If at end of string; False is returned, except for testBlank(). No pointer update. Any method with NC at the end (for no-case) will test irrespective of the case.
skipX(arg) – all skip methods skip all available character(s) fulfilling the specified argument. E.g. void skipSign() will skip all + and - found at the current and subsequent positions. Pointer updated.
tSkipX(arg) – will skip as skipX, and return Bool as in testX. Pointer updated
getX(arg) – will get the indicated X value from the string. Pointer updated. A get will always return a valid result. However, if the value did not exist (e.g. Double getDouble() form a string like "abc" will return 0.0) a False status will be saved. It can be interrogated by the Bool status() function. The string part used in producing the value is also saved, and can be obtained with const String &lastGet(). No saving in case of a simple getChar() is done.
stack – if it is necessary to save the current position of the pointer (for maybe later restoration) a void push() and void pop() are available
pointer – the pointer can be manipulated with void setPtr() and Int getPtr(). Pointers are always protected in their value.

The following types (X in the above list) are available

Char – a single character
CharNC – a single character with no case
String – a string
StringNC – a string without case
Alpha – a through z and A through Z and _ (underscore)
Num – digits 0 through 9
AlphaNum – a field staring with Alpha, and remainder (if any) Alpha or Num
Sign – a plus or minus
Blank – a space ar a tab
uInt – unsigned integer
Int – an optionally signed integer
Double – a double value

General string aids are available. The main one a minimax, caseless check of an input String against a vector: static uInt minimaxNC(String in, Int N_name, String name[]) and its vector equivalent: static uInt minimaxNC(String in, Vector<String> name). Success is indicated by a return value less than N_name or the vector length.

Example

See MVAngle class for example background. The following example is the conversion of different input angle formats to a Quantity. A full blown example, but gives some idea of intricacies involved.

res = Quantity(0.0, "rad");    // result
MUString tmp(in);      // Pointed non-const String
tmp.skipBlank();
Double s = tmp.getSign();  // sign
tmp.push();            // Save position to rescan
Double r = tmp.getuInt();  // first field
Int tp = 0;            // distributor
if (tmp.tSkipChar('.')) {  // if more than one., dms format
Double r1 = tmp.getuInt();
if (tmp.tSkipChar('.')) {
r += r1/60.0 + tmp.getDouble()/3600.0;
tp = 4;
} else {           // else value with units
tmp.pop();     // Reset position
r = tmp.getDouble();
};
} else if (tmp.tSkipCharNC('d')) { // dms
tp = 1;
} else if (tmp.tSkipCharNC('h')) { // hms
tp = 2;
} else if (tmp.tSkipChar(':')) {   // hms
tp = 3;
};
switch (tp) {
case 0: {
UnitVal u; String us;
if (!MVAngle::unitString(u,us,tmp)) return False;
r *= s;
if (u == UnitVal::NODIM) { // check correct dimension
res = Quantity(r,"rad");
return True;
};
if (u == UnitVal::ANGLE) {
res = Quantity(r,us);
return True;
};
if (u == UnitVal::TIME) {
res = Quantity(Quantity(r/240.,us).getBaseValue(), "deg");
return True;
};
return False;
};
break;
 
case 1:
case 2:
case 3: {          // get remainder od ms and hms formats
Char tc = 'm';
if (tp == 3) tc = ':';
tmp.push();
Double r1 = tmp.getuInt();
if (tmp.tSkipChar('.')) {
tmp.pop();
r += tmp.getDouble()/3600.;
} else if (tmp.tSkipCharNC(tc)) {
r += r1/60.0 + tmp.getDouble()/3600.;
} else {
r += r1/3600.0;
};
r *= s;
};
break;
 
default:
break;
};
 
switch (tp) {      // make correct units
 
case 1:
case 4:
res = Quantity(r,"deg");
break;
 
case 2:
case 3:
res = Quantity(Quantity(r/240.,"h").getBaseValue(), "deg");
break;
 
default:
break;
 
};
return True;

Motivation

The class was written to be able to analyse an input string for its Quantum representation as value with units, or os a date/time or as an angle.
