I've been working on a small library - an immutable C++ string. Now it is in usable state and has been put in use in a couple of real projects. Although it needs further polishing, I would like to know is there any interest in such a library?
Here is the link: http://conststring.sourceforge.net/
Just wanted to mention here, that I've used const_string as a plug in replacement for std::string for my Wave library and succeeded without any further problems. Moreover, the const_string class gave a perfomance
boost
of about 20% if compared to the flex_string and about 100% if compared to the std::string (I can provide the concrete numbers, if somebody is interested). But these numbers certainly very specific to Wave and its applications.
100% gets my attention, that's for sure! Could you give a small example of a typical usage or two? I'd like to form an opinion as to how common the usage is likely to be. --Beman
