c_strings

c_strings is a C library for dealing with and manipulating strings. It tries to remove some of the pain points associated with C string operations and the possible logic errors and/or memory leaks that might occur.

Compatibility with char*

c_strings provides create_string(c_string*, char*) and get_null_terminated_string(c_string*) to transform a string into c_string* and char*, respectively. This allows the library to be used in contexts where a traditional null-terminated string is required.

Example Usage

TODO

Potential Improvements

• [] Add UTF-8 support
• [] Fuzz the codebase
• [] Experiment with arenas (this will help avoid malloc, calloc and free calls for every single (de-)allocation)
