And what if the string uses more than half of the available space? (I'm not advocating in-place modification, but just mentioning that "return a copy" has its flaws too.)
Then you're probably going to have to start paging to file and other complicated things, it's not easy one to solve. But a good point nonetheless.
I was originally going to write "memory space," but I left it out since I realized that disk space could run low too. Maybe I should have been explicit, to block your "just use virtual memory/paging" save. -- Daryle Walker Mac, Internet, and Video Game Junkie darylew AT hotmail DOT com
