std::basic_string<CharT,Traits,Allocator>::contains
constexpr bool contains( std::basic_string_view<CharT,Traits> sv )
const noexcept; |
(1) | (since C++23) |
constexpr bool contains( CharT c ) const noexcept; |
(2) | (since C++23) |
constexpr bool contains( const CharT* s ) const; |
(3) | (since C++23) |
Checks if the string contains the given substring. The substring may be one of the following:
1) a string view
sv (which may be a result of implicit conversion from another
std::basic_string).
2) a single character
c.
3) a null-terminated character string
s.
All three overloads are equivalent to return find(x) != npos;, where x is the parameter.
Parameters
| sv | - | a string view which may be a result of implicit conversion from another std::basic_string |
| c | - | a single character |
| s | - | a null-terminated character string |
Return value
true if the string contains the provided substring, false otherwise.
Notes
Feature testing macro: __cpp_lib_string_contains.
Example
#include <iostream>
#include <string_view>
#include <string>
template <typename SubstrType>
void test_substring_print(const std::string& str, SubstrType subs)
{
std::cout << '\'' << str << "' contains '" << subs << "': " <<
str.contains(subs) << '\n';
}
int main()
{
std::boolalpha(std::cout);
auto helloWorld = std::string("hello world");
test_substring_print(helloWorld, std::string_view("hello"));
test_substring_print(helloWorld, std::string_view("goodbye"));
test_substring_print(helloWorld, 'w');
test_substring_print(helloWorld, 'x');
}
Output:
'hello world' contains 'hello': true 'hello world' contains 'goodbye': false 'hello world' contains 'w': true 'hello world' contains 'x': false
