static bool smtk::string::is_diff	(	int	n,
		const char *	s1,
		const char *	s2
	)			[inline, static]

do two strings differ in first n chars?

is_diff() compares two strings s1 and s2. is_diff() does not look at all characters in the strings, but just what is necessary to determine the return value. This maybe a faster replacement for strcmp(3) when all you need to know is if the strings differ or not.

Parameters:

	n	is the number of characters to compare at most.
	s1	a pointer to a string whose contents will not be changed
	s2	a pointer to a string whose contents will not be changed

Returns:

Returns false if s1 and s2 are strings of the same characters up to n characters or true if not. Returns false if both s1 and s2 are NULL (0) pointers, and true if just one is.

static bool smtk::string::is_diff	(	const char *	s1,
		const char *	s2
	)			[inline, static]

do two strings differ?

is_diff() compares two strings s1 and s2. is_diff() does not look at all characters in the strings, but just what is necessary to determine the return value. This maybe a little faster replacement for strcmp(3) when all you need to know is if the strings differ or not.

Parameters:

	s1	a pointer to a string whose contents will not be changed
	s2	a pointer to a string whose contents will not be changed

Returns:

Returns false if s1 and s2 are strings of the same length and have all the same characters or true if not. Returns false if both s1 and s2 are NULL (0) pointers, and true if just one is.

static bool smtk::string::is_diff_case	(	const char *	s1,
		const char *	s2
	)			[inline, static]

do two strings differ, ignoring case?

is_diff_case() compares two strings s1 and s2. is_diff_case() does not look at all characters in the strings, but just what is necessary to determine the return value. This maybe a faster replacement for strcmp(3) when all you need to know is if the strings differ or not.

This compares the characters using ASCII (ISO 646).

Parameters:

	s1	a pointer to a string whose contents will not be changed
	s2	a pointer to a string whose contents will not be changed

Returns:

Returns false if s1 and s2 are strings of the same length and have all the same characters, ignoring case or true if not. Returns false if both s1 and s2 are NULL (0) pointers, and true if just one is.

static bool smtk::string::is_same	(	int	n,
		const char *	s1,
		const char *	s2
	)			[inline, static]

are two strings the same in first n chars?

is_same() compares two strings s1 and s2. is_same() does not look at all characters in the strings, but just what is necessary to determine the return value. This maybe a faster replacement for strcmp(3) when all you need to know is if the strings are the same or not.

Parameters:

	n	is the number of characters to compare.
	s1	a pointer to a string whose contents will not be changed
	s2	a pointer to a string whose contents will not be changed

Returns:

Returns true if s1 and s2 are the same up to n characters or false if not. Returns true if both s1 and s2 are NULL (0) pointers, and false if just one is.

static bool smtk::string::is_same	(	const char *	s1,
		const char *	s2
	)			[inline, static]

are two strings the same?

is_same() compares two strings s1 and s2. is_same() does not look at all characters in the strings, but just what is necessary to determine the return value. This maybe a faster replacement for strcmp(3) when all you need to know is if the strings are the same or not.

Parameters:

	s1	a pointer to a string whose contents will not be changed
	s2	a pointer to a string whose contents will not be changed

Returns:

Returns true if s1 and s2 are the same length and have all the same characters or false if not. Returns true if both s1 and s2 are NULL (0) pointers, and false if just one is.

static bool smtk::string::is_same_case	(	const char *	s1,
		const char *	s2
	)			[inline, static]

are two strings the same, ignoring case?

is_same_case() compares two strings s1 and s2. is_same_case() does not look at all characters in the strings, but just what is necessary to determine the return value. This maybe a faster replacement for strcasecmp(3) when all you need to know is if the strings are the same or not.

This compares the characters using ASCII (ISO 646).

Parameters:

	s1	a pointer to a string whose contents will not be changed
	s2	a pointer to a string whose contents will not be changed

Returns:

Returns true if s1 and s2 are the same length and have all the same characters, ignoring case or false if not. Returns true if both s1 and s2 are NULL (0) pointers, and false if just one is.
