string filename = "test.cpp"; string::size_type idx = filename.find('.'); //size_type是string class定义的一个无正负号整数类型,size_type类型取决于string class的内存模型 //idx不能定义为int或者unsigned类型,否则与string::npos的比较动作无法有效运行 if (idx == string::npos) { cout << "find fail..." << endl; }
从标准输入设备输入一个个单词,然后字符逆序打印。

在<string>中,basic_string<>类被定义为所有string类型的基础模板类,它将字符类型、字符类型的trait、内存模型都参数化了。
C++标准库提供了若干basic_string<>的特化版本:
typedef basic_string<char> string; typedef basic_string<wchar_t> wstring; typedef basic_string<char16_t> u16string; typedef basic_string<char32_t> u32string;
C++ standard中将字符串字面常量的类型由char*改为const char*.有三个函数可以将string内容转换为字符数组或者C-String
- data()和c_str()以字符数组的形式返回string内容,在数组最后有一个结束符,所以其结果是一个内含\0字符的有效C-String
- copy()将string内容复制到字符数组中,末尾添加'\0'字符
