Get a Substring by Char Index and Length

Demonstrates how to use the GetRange method to get a substring by index and length.

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

Zig

const std = @import("std");
const chilkat = @import("chilkat");

pub fn main(init: std.process.Init) !void {
    const alloc = init.arena.allocator();

    const sb = try chilkat.StringBuilder.init();
    defer sb.deinit();

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

    // Return "56789A" from the string.
    // if removeFlag is true, the returned string is also removed from the sb.
    const remove_flag = true;
    const result = try sb.getRange(alloc, 5, 6, remove_flag);

    std.debug.print("{s}\n", .{result});
    std.debug.print("{s}\n", .{try sb.getAsString(alloc)});

    // Output is:
    //
    // 56789A
    // 01234BCDEF
}
