Shorten a String in StringBuilder by N Chars

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.

Swift

func chilkatTest() {
    var success: Bool = false

    let sb = CkoStringBuilder()!

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

    sb.shorten(numChars: 3)

    print("\(sb.getAsString()!)")

    // Output is: 0123456789ABC

}
