TO_UTF8

#define TO_UTF8

(

wxstring

)

( (const char*) ( wxstring ).utf8_str() )

Convert a wxString to a UTF8 encoded C string for all wxWidgets build modes.

wxstring is a wxString, not a wxT() or _(). The scope of the return value is very limited and volatile, but can be used with printf() style functions well.

Note

Trying to convert it to a function is tricky because of the type of the parameter!

ReplaceIllegalFileNameChars() [1/2]

KICOMMON_API bool ReplaceIllegalFileNameChars	(	std::string *	aName,

Checks aName for illegal file name characters.

The Windows (DOS) file system forbidden characters already include the forbidden file name characters for both Posix and OSX systems. The characters \/?*|"<> are illegal and are replaced with xx where xx the hexadecimal equivalent of the replaced character. This replacement may not be as elegant as using an underscore ('_') or hyphen ('-') but it guarantees that there will be no naming conflicts when fixing footprint library names. however, if aReplaceChar is given, it will replace the illegal chars

Parameters

aName	is a point to a std::string object containing the footprint name to verify.
aReplaceChar	(if not 0) is the replacement char.

Returns

true if any characters have been replaced in aName.

StripTrailingZeros()

KICOMMON_API void StripTrailingZeros	(	wxString &	aStringValue,

KICOMMON_API int StrNumCmp	(	const wxString &	aString1,

Compare two strings with alphanumerical content.

This function is equivalent to strncmp() or strncasecmp() if aIgnoreCase is true except that strings containing numbers are compared by their integer value not by their ASCII code. In other words U10 would be greater than U2.

Parameters

aString1	A wxString reference to the reference string.
aString2	A wxString reference to the comparison string.
aIgnoreCase	Use true to make the comparison case insensitive.

Returns

An integer value of -1 if aString1 is less than aString2, 0 if aString1 is equal to aString2, or 1 if aString1 is greater than aString2.

UIDouble2Str()

KICOMMON_API std::string UIDouble2Str

(

double

aValue

)

Print a float number without using scientific notation and no trailing 0 We want to avoid scientific notation in S-expr files (not easy to read) for floating numbers.

We cannot always just use the g or the f format to print a fp number this helper function uses the f format when needed, or g when f is not well working and then removes trailing 0

ValueStringCompare()

KICOMMON_API int ValueStringCompare	(	const wxString &	strFWord,
		const wxString &	strSWord
	)

Compare strings like the strcmp function but handle numbers and modifiers within the string text correctly for sorting.

eg. 1mF > 55uF

Returns

-1 if first string is less than the second, 0 if the strings are equal, or 1 if the first string is greater than the second.
