https://d.puremagic.com/issues/show_bug.cgi?id=12515 Summary: memchr/wmemchr/dmemchr in druntime Product: D Version: D2 Platform: All OS/Version: All Status: NEW Severity: enhancement Priority: P2 Component: druntime AssignedTo: nobody puremagic.com ReportedBy: monarchdodra gmail.com This is a request to have a trio of functions in druntime, that do what memchr does, but also for 1-byte, 2-byte and 4-byte widths (and maybe 8 bytes too). The issue with C's wmemchr is that works on `wchar_t`, which may be either a wchar or dchar, making it horribly difficult to use in a generic way (or at all). Having these methods in druntime would be able to do memory wise search in a much easier fashion. It would also have the advantage of: - accept a "const(void)[]" as input, so using them is "just safe". - have a __ctfe branch, so no special branches need to be deployed by the caller: It "just works". Not sure which druntime (or phobos?) library it would go into. Also, a rename might help, to avoid ambiguity "[cwdl]memsearch?" -- Configure issuemail: https://d.puremagic.com/issues/userprefs.cgi?tab=email ------- You are receiving this mail because: -------
