Idiot's UTF-8 Library

Idiot's UTF-8 Library

A very (too much really) simple Utf8 library for C++

Usage

#include "lib/idutf8lib.hpp"

Utf8String text; //Empty UTF8 object
Utf8String utf8_text("Héĺĺò Ẃórld"); //std::string compatible constructor
text = "Jello!"; //Supports assignment with std::string AND Utf8String objects
text.to_string(); // == std::string("Jello!")

utf8_text.size_in_chars() // == 11
utf8_text.size_in_bytes() // == 18 

Features

• Decodes and parses UTF-8 strings correctly (at least until now)
• Very lightweight and small: only 165 newlines total (*without counting tests)

Requirements

• A C++14 compatible compiler

Notes

Makefile serves only for testing purposes.

Uses the Catch framework for tests.
