Icetips Utilities Documentation 1/25/2016     String Class Overview

Previous  Top  Next

The string class has some very powerful string methods, including methods to read an entire file into a string buffer and write a string buffer to a file.  It can also parse a string into lines or into words. 

Check out the short tutorial at the end of this chapter.
