Demonstrates how to shorten a string contained in a Chilkat StringBuilder object by N chars.

Note: This example demonstrates the Shorten method which was added in Chilkat v9.5.0.87.

Ruby

require 'chilkat'

success = false

sb = Chilkat::CkStringBuilder.new()

# Load a file that contains this string:  0123456789ABCDEF
success = sb.LoadFile("qa_data/txt/remove_chars.txt","utf-8")

sb.Shorten(3)

print sb.getAsString() + "\n";

# Output is: 0123456789ABC
