wstring

typedef xtd::basic_string< xtd::wchar > xtd::wstring

Represents text as a sequence of UTF-16 code unit on Windows or UTF-32 code unit on non-Windows systems.

Namespace

Library

xtd.core

Remarks

A string is a sequential collection of characters that's used to represent text. A xtd::wstring object is a sequential collection of xtd::wchar that represent a string; a xtd::wchar corresponds to a UTF-16 code unit on Windows or UTF-32 code unit on non-Windows systems. The value of the xtd::wstring object is the content of the sequential collection of xtd::wchar, and unlike std::basic_string<wchar_t> that value is immutable (that is, it is read-only).

If you want the same mutable string class, you can use xtd::text::wstring_builder class.

xtd::wstring implements xtd::basic_string and therefore offers the full (immutable) API of std::wstring.
