@frozen struct StaticString
Instances of the Static type are immutable. Static provides limited, pointer-based access to its contents, unlike Swift’s more commonly used String type. A static string can store its value as a pointer to an ASCII code unit sequence, as a pointer to a UTF-8 code unit sequence, or as a single Unicode scalar value.
typealias StaticA type that represents an extended grapheme cluster literal.
typealias StaticA type that represents a string literal.
typealias StaticA type that represents a Unicode scalar literal.
init()Creates an empty static string.
init(extendedCreates an instance initialized to a single character that is made up of one or more Unicode scalar values.
init(stringCreates an instance initialized to the value of a string literal.
init(unicodeCreates an instance initialized to a single Unicode scalar.
var customThe custom mirror for this instance.
var debugA textual representation of the static string, suitable for debugging.
var description: StringA string representation of the static string.
var hasA Boolean value indicating whether the static string stores a pointer to ASCII or UTF-8 code units.
var isA Boolean value that is true if the static string stores a pointer to ASCII code units.
var unicodeThe stored Unicode scalar value.
var utf8CodeThe length in bytes of the static string’s ASCII or UTF-8 representation.
var utf8Start: UnsafeA pointer to the beginning of the string’s UTF-8 encoded representation.
func withInvokes the given closure with a buffer containing the static string’s UTF-8 code unit sequence.
