NAME¶
Builtins::createString - Creates a string with particular memory allocation
SYNOPSIS¶
String createString( Int len )
ARGUMENTS¶
len The number of characters to allocate space for
DESCRIPTION¶
Create an empty string, with initial space for
len characters. Use this
to avoid unnecessary reallocation if you know or can compute the length of a
string in advance.
Using this function can save time and memory in Kaya programs, but generally the
default memory allocation will be adequate - save this for the optimisation
stage.
