+ Here are Standard, simple, and portable ways to perform common
+ transformations on a <code class="code">string</code> instance, such as
+ "convert to all upper case." The word transformations
+ is especially apt, because the standard template function
+ <code class="code">transform&lt;&gt;</code> is used.
+ </p><p>
+ This code will go through some iterations. Here's a simple
+ version:
+ </p><pre class="programlisting">
+ #include &lt;string&gt;
+ #include &lt;algorithm&gt;
+ #include &lt;cctype&gt; // old &lt;ctype.h&gt;
+
+ struct ToLower
+ {
+ char operator() (char c) const { return std::tolower(c); }
+ };
+
+ struct ToUpper
+ {
+ char operator() (char c) const { return std::toupper(c); }
+ };
+
+ int main()
+ {
+ std::string s ("Some Kind Of Initial Input Goes Here");
+
+ // Change everything into upper case
+ std::transform (s.begin(), s.end(), s.begin(), ToUpper());
+
+ // Change everything into lower case
+ std::transform (s.begin(), s.end(), s.begin(), ToLower());
+
+ // Change everything back into upper case, but store the
+ // result in a different string
+ std::string capital_s;
+ capital_s.resize(s.size());
+ std::transform (s.begin(), s.end(), capital_s.begin(), ToUpper());
+ }
+ </pre><p>
+ <span class="emphasis"><em>Note</em></span> that these calls all
+ involve the global C locale through the use of the C functions
+ <code class="code">toupper/tolower</code>. This is absolutely guaranteed to work --
+ but <span class="emphasis"><em>only</em></span> if the string contains <span class="emphasis"><em>only</em></span> characters
+ from the basic source character set, and there are <span class="emphasis"><em>only</em></span>
+ 96 of those. Which means that not even all English text can be
+ represented (certain British spellings, proper names, and so forth).
+ So, if all your input forevermore consists of only those 96
+ characters (hahahahahaha), then you're done.
+ </p><p><span class="emphasis"><em>Note</em></span> that the
+ <code class="code">ToUpper</code> and <code class="code">ToLower</code> function objects
+ are needed because <code class="code">toupper</code> and <code class="code">tolower</code>
+ are overloaded names (declared in <code class="code">&lt;cctype&gt;</code> and
+ <code class="code">&lt;locale&gt;</code>) so the template-arguments for
+ <code class="code">transform&lt;&gt;</code> cannot be deduced, as explained in
+ <a class="ulink" href="http://gcc.gnu.org/ml/libstdc++/2002-11/msg00180.html" target="_top">this
+ message</a>.
+
+ At minimum, you can write short wrappers like
+ </p><pre class="programlisting">
+ char toLower (char c)
+ {
+ return std::tolower(c);
+ } </pre><p>The correct method is to use a facet for a particular locale
+ and call its conversion functions. These are discussed more in
+ Chapter 22; the specific part is
+ <a class="ulink" href="../22_locale/howto.html#7" target="_top">Correct Transformations</a>,
+ which shows the final version of this code. (Thanks to James Kanze
+ for assistance and suggestions on all of this.)
+ </p><p>Another common operation is trimming off excess whitespace. Much
+ like transformations, this task is trivial with the use of string's
+ <code class="code">find</code> family. These examples are broken into multiple
+ statements for readability:
+ </p><pre class="programlisting">
+ std::string str (" \t blah blah blah \n ");
+
+ // trim leading whitespace
+ string::size_type notwhite = str.find_first_not_of(" \t\n");
+ str.erase(0,notwhite);
+
+ // trim trailing whitespace
+ notwhite = str.find_last_not_of(" \t\n");
+ str.erase(notwhite+1); </pre><p>Obviously, the calls to <code class="code">find</code> could be inserted directly
+ into the calls to <code class="code">erase</code>, in case your compiler does not
+ optimize named temporaries out of existence.
