Struct std::ffi::OsString

1.0.0 · source ·
pub struct OsString { /* private fields */ }
Expand description

A type that can represent owned, mutable platform-native strings, but is cheaply inter-convertible with Rust strings.

The need for this type arises from the fact that:

  • On Unix systems, strings are often arbitrary sequences of non-zero bytes, in many cases interpreted as UTF-8.

  • On Windows, strings are often arbitrary sequences of non-zero 16-bit values, interpreted as UTF-16 when it is valid to do so.

  • In Rust, strings are always valid UTF-8, which may contain zeros.

OsString and OsStr bridge this gap by simultaneously representing Rust and platform-native string values, and in particular allowing a Rust string to be converted into an “OS” string with no cost if possible. A consequence of this is that OsString instances are not NUL terminated; in order to pass to e.g., Unix system call, you should create a CStr.

OsString is to &OsStr as String is to &str: the former in each pair are owned strings; the latter are borrowed references.

Note, OsString and OsStr internally do not necessarily hold strings in the form native to the platform; While on Unix, strings are stored as a sequence of 8-bit values, on Windows, where strings are 16-bit value based as just discussed, strings are also actually stored as a sequence of 8-bit values, encoded in a less-strict variant of UTF-8. This is useful to understand when handling capacity and length values.

Capacity of OsString

Capacity uses units of UTF-8 bytes for OS strings which were created from valid unicode, and uses units of bytes in an unspecified encoding for other contents. On a given target, all OsString and OsStr values use the same units for capacity, so the following will work:

use std::ffi::{OsStr, OsString};

fn concat_os_strings(a: &OsStr, b: &OsStr) -> OsString {
    let mut ret = OsString::with_capacity(a.len() + b.len()); // This will allocate
    ret.push(a); // This will not allocate further
    ret.push(b); // This will not allocate further
    ret
}
Run

Creating an OsString

From a Rust string: OsString implements From<String>, so you can use my_string.into() to create an OsString from a normal Rust string.

From slices: Just like you can start with an empty Rust String and then String::push_str some &str sub-string slices into it, you can create an empty OsString with the OsString::new method and then push string slices into it with the OsString::push method.

Extracting a borrowed reference to the whole OS string

You can use the OsString::as_os_str method to get an &OsStr from an OsString; this is effectively a borrowed reference to the whole string.

Conversions

See the module’s toplevel documentation about conversions for a discussion on the traits which OsString implements for conversions from/to native representations.

Implementations§

impl OsString

source

pub fn new() -> OsString

Constructs a new empty OsString.

Examples
use std::ffi::OsString;

pub unsafe fn from_encoded_bytes_unchecked(bytes: Vec<u8>) -> Self

Converts bytes to an OsString without checking that the bytes contains valid OsStr-encoded data.

The byte encoding is an unspecified, platform-specific, self-synchronizing superset of UTF-8. By being a self-synchronizing superset of UTF-8, this encoding is also a superset of 7-bit ASCII.

See the module’s toplevel documentation about conversions for safe, cross-platform conversions from/to native representations.

Safety

As the encoding is unspecified, callers must pass in bytes that originated as a mixture of validated UTF-8 and bytes from OsStr::as_encoded_bytes from within the same rust version built for the same target platform. For example, reconstructing an OsString from bytes sent over the network or stored in a file will likely violate these safety rules.

Due to the encoding being self-synchronizing, the bytes from OsStr::as_encoded_bytes can be split either immediately before or immediately after any valid non-empty UTF-8 substring.

Example
use std::ffi::OsStr;

let os_str = OsStr::new("Mary had a little lamb");
let bytes = os_str.as_encoded_bytes();
let words = bytes.split(|b| *b == b' ');
let words: Vec<&OsStr> = words.map(|word| {
    // SAFETY:
    // - Each `word` only contains content that originated from `OsStr::as_encoded_bytes`
    // - Only split with ASCII whitespace which is a non-empty UTF-8 substring
    unsafe { OsStr::from_encoded_bytes_unchecked(word) }
}).collect();
Run
source

pub fn as_os_str(&self) -> &OsStr

Converts to an OsStr slice.

Examples
use std::ffi::{OsString, OsStr};

let os_string = OsString::from("foo");
let os_str = OsStr::new("foo");
assert_eq!(os_string.as_os_str(), os_str);
Run
1.74.0-nightly · source

pub fn into_encoded_bytes(self) -> Vec<u8>

Converts the OsString into a byte slice. To convert the byte slice back into an OsString, use the OsStr::from_encoded_bytes_unchecked function.

The byte encoding is an unspecified, platform-specific, self-synchronizing superset of UTF-8. By being a self-synchronizing superset of UTF-8, this encoding is also a superset of 7-bit ASCII.

Note: As the encoding is unspecified, any sub-slice of bytes that is not valid UTF-8 should be treated as opaque and only comparable within the same rust version built for the same target platform. For example, sending the bytes over the network or storing it in a file will likely result in incompatible data. See OsString for more encoding details and std::ffi for platform-specific, specified conversions.

source

pub fn into_string(self) -> Result<String, OsString>

Converts the OsString into a String if it contains valid Unicode data.

On failure, ownership of the original OsString is returned.

Examples
use std::ffi::OsString;

let os_string = OsString::from("foo");
let string = os_string.into_string();
assert_eq!(string, Ok(String::from("foo")));
Run
source

pub fn push<T: AsRef<OsStr>>(&mut self, s: T)

Extends the string with the given &OsStr slice.

Examples
use std::ffi::OsString;

let mut os_string = OsString::from("foo");
os_string.push("bar");
assert_eq!(&os_string, "foobar");
Run

pub fn with_capacity(capacity: usize) -> OsString

Creates a new OsString with at least the given capacity.

The string will be able to hold at least capacity length units of other OS strings without reallocating. This method is allowed to allocate for more units than capacity. If capacity is 0, the string will not allocate.

See the main OsString documentation information about encoding and capacity units.

Examples
use std::ffi::OsString;

let mut os_string = OsString::with_capacity(10);
let capacity = os_string.capacity();

// This push is done without reallocating
os_string.push("foo");

assert_eq!(capacity, os_string.capacity());
Run
1.9.0 · source

pub fn clear(&mut self)

Truncates the OsString to zero length.

Examples
use std::ffi::OsString;

let mut os_string = OsString::from("foo");
assert_eq!(&os_string, "foo");

os_string.clear();
assert_eq!(&os_string, "");
Run

pub fn capacity(&self) -> usize

Returns the capacity this OsString can hold without reallocating.

See the main OsString documentation information about encoding and capacity units.

Examples
use std::ffi::OsString;

let os_string = OsString::with_capacity(10);
assert!(os_string.capacity() >= 10);
Run

pub fn reserve(&mut self, additional: usize)

Reserves capacity for at least additional more capacity to be inserted in the given OsString. Does nothing if the capacity is already sufficient.

The collection may reserve more space to speculatively avoid frequent reallocations.

See the main OsString documentation information about encoding and capacity units.

Examples
use std::ffi::OsString;

let mut s = OsString::new();
s.reserve(10);
assert!(s.capacity() >= 10);
Run
1.63.0 · source

pub fn try_reserve(&mut self, additional: usize) -> Result<(), TryReserveError>

Tries to reserve capacity for at least additional more length units in the given OsString. The string may reserve more space to speculatively avoid frequent reallocations. After calling try_reserve, capacity will be greater than or equal to self.len() + additional if it returns Ok(()). Does nothing if capacity is already sufficient. This method preserves the contents even if an error occurs.

See the main OsString documentation information about encoding and capacity units.

Errors

If the capacity overflows, or the allocator reports a failure, then an error is returned.

Examples
use std::ffi::{OsStr, OsString};
use std::collections::TryReserveError;

fn process_data(data: &str) -> Result<OsString, TryReserveError> {
    let mut s = OsString::new();

    // Pre-reserve the memory, exiting if we can't
    s.try_reserve(OsStr::new(data).len())?;

    // Now we know this can't OOM in the middle of our complex work
    s.push(data);

    Ok(s)
}
Run

pub fn reserve_exact(&mut self, additional: usize)

Reserves the minimum capacity for at least additional more capacity to be inserted in the given OsString. Does nothing if the capacity is already sufficient.

Note that the allocator may give the collection more space than it requests. Therefore, capacity can not be relied upon to be precisely minimal. Prefer reserve if future insertions are expected.

See the main OsString documentation information about encoding and capacity units.

Examples
use std::ffi::OsString;

let mut s = OsString::new();
s.reserve_exact(10);
assert!(s.capacity() >= 10);
Run

pub fn shrink_to(&mut self, min_capacity: usize)

Shrinks the capacity of the OsString with a lower bound.

The capacity will remain at least as large as both the length and the supplied value.

If the current capacity is less than the lower limit, this is a no-op.

See the main OsString documentation information about encoding and capacity units.

Methods from Deref<Target = OsStr>§

source

pub fn to_str(&self) -> Option<&str>

Yields a &str slice if the OsStr is valid Unicode.

This conversion may entail doing a check for UTF-8 validity.

Examples
use std::ffi::OsStr;

let os_str = OsStr::new("foo");
assert_eq!(os_str.to_str(), Some("foo"));
Run
source

pub fn to_string_lossy(&self) -> Cow<'_, str>

Converts an OsStr to a Cow<str>.

Any non-Unicode sequences are replaced with U+FFFD REPLACEMENT CHARACTER.

Examples

Calling to_string_lossy on an OsStr with invalid unicode:

// Note, due to differences in how Unix and Windows represent strings,
// we are forced to complicate this example, setting up example `OsStr`s
// with different source data and via different platform extensions.
// Understand that in reality you could end up with such example invalid
// sequences simply through collecting user command line arguments, for
// example.

#[cfg(unix)] {
    use std::ffi::OsStr;
    use std::os::unix::ffi::OsStrExt;

    // Here, the values 0x66 and 0x6f correspond to 'f' and 'o'
    // respectively. The value 0x80 is a lone continuation byte, invalid
    // in a UTF-8 sequence.

pub fn len(&self) -> usize

Returns the length of this OsStr.

Note that this does not return the number of bytes in the string in OS string form.

The length returned is that of the underlying storage used by OsStr. As discussed in the OsString introduction, OsString and OsStr store strings in a form best suited for cheap inter-conversion between native-platform and Rust string forms, which may differ significantly from both of them, including in storage size and encoding.

This number is simply useful for passing to other methods, like OsString::with_capacity to avoid reallocations.

See the main OsString documentation information about encoding and capacity units.

Examples
use std::ffi::OsStr;

let os_str = OsStr::new("");
assert_eq!(os_str.len(), 0);

let os_str = OsStr::new("foo");
assert_eq!(os_str.len(), 3);

pub fn as_encoded_bytes(&self) -> &[u8]

Converts an OS string slice to a byte slice. To convert the byte slice back into an OS string slice, use the OsStr::from_encoded_bytes_unchecked function.

The byte encoding is an unspecified, platform-specific, self-synchronizing superset of UTF-8. By being a self-synchronizing superset of UTF-8, this encoding is also a superset of 7-bit ASCII.

Note: As the encoding is unspecified, any sub-slice of bytes that is not valid UTF-8 should be treated as opaque and only comparable within the same rust version built for the same target platform. For example, sending the slice over the network or storing it in a file will likely result in incompatible byte slices.
