| set | This is the vss-text:std metapackage. It pulls in all subpackages of vss-text:std. |
| primary | VSS-Text is a high level string and text processing library. The objectives of this project are: * To introduce a definite type that represents a string of Unicode characters and provides a handy set of operations. * The API should be encoding independent and allows efficient implementations * Besides separating string API from in-memory data representation, it should separate string API from input/output stream representation. * To provide a clear, well-defined semantic for iteration over string elements, such as unicode unit, grapheme cluster, etc. * To avoid string element integer indexes, because this isn't necessarily constant time and could mislead about indexed element kind. * To prefer safe results over raising exceptions where possible. |
| dev | This is the developer subpackage of the vss-text:std port. It may contain headers, pc files, static and PIC libraries and SO links. |
