Using this functionality is quite simple. An example structure with three fields is defined like this: \code struct sample_fields { int x1; AST_DECLARE_STRING_FIELDS( AST_STRING_FIELD(foo); AST_STRING_FIELD(bar); AST_STRING_FIELD(blah); ); long x2; }; \endcode When an instance of this structure is allocated (either statically or dynamically), the fields and the pool of storage for them must be initialized: \code struct sample_fields *x; x = ast_calloc(1, sizeof(*x)); if (x == NULL || ast_string_field_init(x, 252)) { if (x) ast_free(x); x = NULL; ... handle error } \endcode Fields will default to pointing to an empty string, and will revert to that when ast_string_field_set() is called with a NULL argument. A string field will \b never contain NULL (this feature is not used in this code, but comes from external requirements). ast_string_field_init(x, 0) will reset fields to the initial value while keeping the pool allocated. Reading the fields is much like using 'const char * const' fields in the structure: you cannot write to the field or to the memory it points to (XXX perhaps the latter is too much of a restriction since values are not shared). Writing to the fields must be done using the wrapper macros listed below; and assignments are always by value (i.e. strings are copied): * ast_string_field_set() stores a simple value; * ast_string_field_build() builds the string using a printf-style; * ast_string_field_build_va() is the varargs version of the above (for portability reasons it uses two vararg); * variants of these function allow passing a pointer to the field as an argument. \code ast_string_field_set(x, foo, "infinite loop"); ast_string_field_set(x, foo, NULL); // set to an empty string ast_string_field_ptr_set(x, &x->bar, "right way"); ast_string_field_build(x, blah, "%d %s", zipcode, city); ast_string_field_ptr_build(x, &x->blah, "%d %s", zipcode, city); ast_string_field_build_va(x, bar, fmt, args1, args2) ast_string_field_ptr_build_va(x, &x->bar, fmt, args1, args2) \endcode When the structure instance is no longer needed, the fields and their storage pool must be freed: \code ast_string_field_free_memory(x); ast_free(x); \endcode This completes the API description. */ #ifndef _ASTERISK_STRINGFIELDS_H #define _ASTERISK_STRINGFIELDS_H #include "asterisk/inline_api.h" #include "asterisk/compiler.h" #include "asterisk/compat.h" /*! \internal \brief An opaque type for managed string fields in structures Don't declare instances of this type directly; use the AST_STRING_FIELD() macro instead. */ typedef const char * ast_string_field; /*! \internal \brief A constant empty string used for fields that have no other value */ extern const char __ast_string_field_empty[]; /*! \internal \brief Structure used to hold a pool of space for string fields */ struct ast_string_field_pool { struct ast_string_field_pool *prev; /*!< pointer to the previous pool, if any */ char base[0]; /*!< storage space for the fields */ }; /*! \internal \brief Structure used to manage the storage for a set of string fields.
