Feature #2090
Updated by Junxiao Shi almost 10 years ago
This task is to match `Name::compare` with `std::string::compare` (for partial name comparison): ``` class Name { public: /** \brief indicates "until the end" in getSubName and compare */ public static size_t npos; /** \brief compares [pos1 ,pos1+count1) components in this Name to all components in \p other * * This is equivalent to this->getSubName(pos1, count1).compare(other); */ int compare(size_t compare( size_type pos1, size_t size_type count1, const Name& other); /** \brief compares [pos1, pos1+count1) components in this Name to [pos2, pos2+count2) components in \p other * * This is equivalent to this->getSubName(pos1, count1).compare(other.getSubName(pos2, count2)); */ name2 ) const; int compare(size_t compare( size_type pos1, size_t size_type count1, const Name& other, size_t name2, size_type pos2, size_t size_type count2 = npos); } ``` npos ) const;
