## Detailed Description

Handle dynamic string.

In this string are always valid (you don't have NULL pointer, only empty string)

## Function Documentation

DSTR * tds_dstr_alloc | ( | DSTR * | s,
|  | unsigned int | length |
| ) |  |  |

allocate space for length char

Parameters:

  | s | dynamic string
  | length | new length

Returns:
  string allocated or NULL on memory error

DSTR * tds_dstr_copy | ( | DSTR * | s,
|  | const char * | src |
| ) |  |  |

copy a string from another

Parameters:

  | s | dynamic string
  | src | source buffer

Returns:
  string copied or NULL on memory error

DSTR * tds_dstr_copyn | ( | DSTR * | s,
|  | const char * | src,
|  | unsigned int | length |
| ) |  |  |

Set string to a given buffer of characters.

Parameters:

  | s | dynamic string
  | src | source buffer
  | length | length of source buffer

Returns:
  string copied or NULL on memory error

DSTR * tds_dstr_set | ( | DSTR * | s,
|  | char * | src |
| ) |  |  |

set a string from another buffer.

The string will use the supplied buffer (it not copy the string), so it should be a pointer returned by malloc.

Parameters:

  | s | dynamic string
  | src | source buffer

Returns:
  string copied or NULL on memory error

DSTR * tds_dstr_setlen | ( | DSTR * | s,
|  | unsigned int | length |
| ) |  |  |

limit length of string, MUST be <= current length

Parameters:

  | s | dynamic string
  | length | new length
