It looks like I have the search working like this, but I have to
double-space the dictionary file to have a leading \n.
No, you just need one initial extra newline at the start, the newline
from the end of the last string matches up with the starting newline
of the modified search string.
NSString *searchStr = @"\njoy\n";
NSData *strData = [searchStr
dataUsingEncoding:NSUTF8StringEncoding];
const char *strBytes = [strData bytes];
const char *fileBytes = [stringFileContents bytes];
char *ptr = strstr(fileBytes, strBytes);
Is that what you were thinking?
Roughly.
-(BOOL)containsString:(NSString*)searchString
{
int stringLen=[searchString
lengthOfBytesUsingEncoding:NSUTF8StringEncoding];
if ( stringLength < 200 ) {
char buffer[ stringLen +4 ];
char *ptr;
buffer[0]='\n';
[searchString getBytes:buffer+1 maxLength:stringLen usedLength:NULL
encoding:NSUTF8StringEncoding options:0 range:NSMakeRange(0,stringLen)
remainingRange:NULL];
buffer[stringLen+1]='\n';
buffer[stringLen+2]=0;
ptr = strnstr([stringFileContents bytes], buffer,
[stringFileContents length] );
return ptr != NULL;
}
}
1. I use a local buffer and copy the string into that, and assume you
don't have words with more than 200 characters.
2. I copy the newlines into that buffer and null terminate it.
-> Your method is probably just as good, except that you need to null
terminate your strings, not sure that happens.
3. I use strnstr() instead of strstr() because the dict isn't null
terminated either.
Cheers,
Marcel
