<descr>
|

<p>
|
|
<var>PosI</var> implements a case-insensitive optimized version of the <var>Pos</var> routine found the RTL <file>system</file> unit. It only accepts <var>String</var> values in its parameters, unlike the RTL overloaded variants which accept combinations of the Char, ShortString, AnsiString, UnicodeString, WideString, and Variant types.
|
|
</p>
|
|
<p>

|
<p>
|
|
<var>SubStr</var> contains the value to locate in <var>S</var>.
|
|
</p>
|
|
<p>
|
|
PosI supports ASCII comparison. It converts the values in SubStr and S to lowercase char by char for fast comparisons. The result is much faster than Pos(Lowercase(SubStr),Lowercase(S)) which is often used.
|
|
</p>
|
|
<p>
|
|
The return value contains the position in S where SubStr is located, or 0 when SubStr does not occur in S. The position is 1-based just like indexed access to values in the String type.

<var>SpecialCharsToHex</var> is a <var>String</var> function used to convert special or control characters (those prior to the Space character Decimal 32) to their representation as a Pascal-style hexadecimal character constant using notation like <b>#$1B</b>. Other character values in <var>s </var> are not altered in any way.
|
|
</p>
|
|
<p>
|
|
SpecialCharsToHex calls <var>Utf8EscapeControlChars</var> in <file>LazUtf8</file> to get the return value for the function. The value <var>emHexPascal</var> is passed as an argument to request hexadecimal notation in the special characters.
|
|
</p>
|
|
<p>
|
|
SpecialCharsToHex is used in the implementation of the Search Result view in the Lazarus IDE.
|
|
</p>
|
|
<remark>
|
|
SpecialCharsToHex has been <b>deprecated</b> in Lazarus 2.1, and will be removed in Lazarus 2.3. Use the <var>Utf8EscapeControlChars</var> routine in <file>LazUtf8.pas</file> instead.

|
|
</p>
|
|
<p>
|
|
BreakString examines values in S and counts the number of characters in each of the lines. Existing <b>CR</b> (<b>#13</b>) or <b>LF</b> (<b>#10</b>) characters are preserved. If the value in MaxLineLength is reached for any given line, a new line is created by inserting the value in LineEnding. The line break occurs at a natural word boundary when one can be determined.
|
|
</p>
|
|
<p>
|
|
Inserting a line break causes an indent with the number of space characters in Indent to be inserted in the return value following the line break.
|

</p>

<p>

|
The process is repeated until all values in S have been handled.

<var>StringListPartToText</var> is a <var>String</var> function used to get a line of text which contains the specified range of lines from a <var>TStrings</var> instance.

</p>

<p>
|
|
<var>FromIndex</var> and <var>ToIndex</var> indicate the line numbers in List used in the return value for the function. They must contain valid ordinal positions, and are used to access the indexed Strings property in the TStrings instance.
|
|
</p>
|
|
<p>
|
|
If FromIndex contains -1, it defaults to the first ordinal position (0). ToIndex must be equal to or larger than the value in FromIndex, and valid for the number of Strings in the string list. It defaults to the upper limit for the string list when it is too large. FromIndex cannot have a value that is larger than the one in ToIndex.
|
|
</p>
|
|
<p>
|
|
No actions are performed in the function when List is unassigned (contains Nil), or when values in the FromIndex or ToIndex parameters are invalid. The return value is an empty string ('') in these scenarios.
|

</p>
|
|
<p>
|
|
<var>IgnoreEmptyLines</var> indicates whether empty lines in the string list are omitted from the return value for the function. When set to <b>True</b>, any Strings value that is an empty string (<b>''</b>) is discarded. Otherwise, the empty value is denoted by adding the value in Delimiter to the return value.

<var>Startpos</var> contains the byte position in S where the substitution is performed. When StartPos is larger that the number of bytes in S, the value in Insertion is appended to the existing string value. The initial value in StartPos is 1.

ReplaceSubstring calls <var>CompareMem</var> to determine if the specified range in S and the value in Insertion have the same content. No actions are performed when the contain the same values.

<p>
|

The affected byte values in S are transferred by calling the <var>System.Move</var> routine. <var>SetLength</var> is called to update the new length for the string.

<p>

<var>LazIsValidIdent</var> is a <var>Boolean</var> function used to determine if the name specified in <var>Ident</var> contains a valid identifier name. The identifier name can represent a Namespace, Package, Unit, Component, or a Member.
|
|
</p>
|
|
<p>
|
|
The return value is <b>True</b> when Ident contains a valid identifier name using the Pascal naming convention. The return value is <b>False</b> if Ident contains an empty string ('').
|
|
</p>
|
|
<p>
|
|
<var>AllowDots</var> indicates whether Period ('.') characters are allowed in the identifier name. The default value for the argument is <b>False</b> (not allowed).
|
|
</p>
|
|
<p>
|
|
<var>StrictDots</var> indicates whether a Period character in the identifier name causes name validation to restart at the next character in the identifier name. When set to <b>False</b>, a Period character is ignored during identifier name validation. The default value for the argument is <b>False</b>, and is significant only when AllowDots is set to <b>True</b>.
|
|
</p>
|
|
<p>
|
|
LazIsValidIdent examines each of the characters in Ident to ensure that the value uses the Pascal identifier naming convention. This requires the value to contain only alphanumeric characters or the Underscore ('_') character. It must start with an alphabetic character or the Underscore character; numeric characters cannot be used at the start of the identifier name. The remaining characters in the identifier name can be any alphanumeric character.
|
|
</p>
|
|
<p>
|
|
Case is not significant when determining the validity of an identifier name.
|
|
</p>
|
|
<p>
|
|
LazIsValidIdent is used in the implementation of various tools in the Lazarus IDE. (IDEIntf, CodeTools, BuildIntf)
|

</p>
|
|
<remark>
|
|
Use the IsValidIdent routine from FPC 3.2.X when version 3.2 is the minimum requirement.
