$(DDOC_MODULE_MEMBERS
  • class Sprint (T);
  • $(DDOC_DECL_DD Constructs sprintf-style output. This is a replacement for the vsprintf() family of functions, and writes its output into a lookaside buffer:
            // create a Sprint instance
            auto sprint = new Sprint!(char);
    
    // write formatted text to a logger log.info (sprint ("{} green bottles, sitting on a wall\n", 10));
            Sprint can be handy when you wish to format text for a Logger
            or similar, since it avoids heap activity during conversion by
            hosting a fixed size conversion buffer. This is important when
            debugging since heap activity can be responsible for behavioral
            changes. One would create a Sprint instance ahead of time, and
            utilize it in conjunction with the logging package.
    
            Please note that the class itself is stateful, and therefore a
            single instance is not shareable across multiple threads. The
            returned content is not .dup'd either, so do that yourself if
            you require a persistent copy.
    
            Note also that Sprint is templated, and can be instantiated for
            wide chars through a Sprint!(dchar) or Sprint!(wchar). The wide
            versions differ in that both the output and the format-string
            are of the target type. Variadic text arguments are transcoded
            appropriately.

  • this(int size = 256);
  • Create new Sprint instances with a buffer of the specified size

    Deprecated - use Stdout.layout.sprint() instead



  • this(int size, Layout!(T) formatter);
  • Create new Sprint instances with a buffer of the specified size, and the provided formatter. The second argument can be used to apply cultural specifics (I18N) to Sprint

  • T[] format (T[] fmt,...);
  • Layout a set of arguments

  • T[] format (T[] fmt, TypeInfo[] arguments, ArgList argptr);
  • Layout a set of arguments
