StaticStrings v0.3.0 StaticStrings.jl v0.3 was just released and has joined the JuliaStrings Github organization. Special thanks to @PatrickHaecker for major contributions to this release. StaticStrings.jl contains several string types which wrap a NTuple{N, UInt8} for strings of fixed length strin…

[image] mkitti: I also noticed that an AbstractString that wraps an existing Memory{UInt8} may be useful. I think the new StringView type in 1.14 or in StringViews.jl can do this.

Interesting. An alternative implementation of a StaticString could be a StringView of a StaticVector from StaticArrays.jl.

[image] mkitti: An alternative implementation of a StaticString could be a StringView of a StaticVector from StaticArrays.jl . Technically definitely interesting. However, from an ecosystem point-of-view it will probably take quite some time until StringView is available in Julia lts. While Ju…

I believe the core devs are aiming for 1.14 as the new LTS, but, like previous LTS releases, this will only be decided when 1.15 is released (as then can then retroactively judge if 1.14 was good enough to become LTS). So we’ll probably have StringView in the next LTS. Indeed, @mkitti and @PatrickH…

I tried this package for the first time. FWIW, compile-time parsing works: julia> using StaticStrings julia> const s = static"123"; julia> function sum_digits() sum(convert(Int, c-UInt8('0')) for c in codeunits(s)) end sum_digits (generic function with 1 method) julia> sum_digi…

[image] PatrickHaecker: So in order to be useful now, this probably would need to be behind an interface with a fallback to a different implementation for older Julia versions with the same functionality only being slower. Realize that the StringView type in Juia 1.14 is essentially just the …

[image] jakobnissen: I recommend you move the implementation to using string views An implementation using StringViews and StaticArrays seems like it could be pretty minimal. If you do: using StringViews, StaticArrays const StaticString{N} = StringView{SVector{N, UInt8}} # type alias macr…
