<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8" ?> <class name="StringName" version="4.0"> <brief_description> An optimized string type for unique names. </brief_description> <description> [StringName]s are immutable strings designed for general-purpose representation of unique names. [StringName] ensures that only one instance of a given name exists (so two [StringName]s with the same value are the same object). Comparing them is much faster than with regular [String]s, because only the pointers are compared, not the whole strings. </description> <tutorials> </tutorials> <constructors> <constructor name="StringName"> <return type="StringName" /> <description> Constructs an empty [StringName]. </description> </constructor> <constructor name="StringName"> <return type="StringName" /> <argument index="0" name="from" type="StringName" /> <description> Constructs a [StringName] as a copy of the given [StringName]. </description> </constructor> <constructor name="StringName"> <return type="StringName" /> <argument index="0" name="from" type="String" /> <description> Creates a new [StringName] from the given [String]. </description> </constructor> </constructors> <operators> <operator name="operator !="> <return type="bool" /> <description> </description> </operator> <operator name="operator !="> <return type="bool" /> <argument index="0" name="right" type="String" /> <description> </description> </operator> <operator name="operator !="> <return type="bool" /> <argument index="0" name="right" type="StringName" /> <description> </description> </operator> <operator name="operator =="> <return type="bool" /> <description> </description> </operator> <operator name="operator =="> <return type="bool" /> <argument index="0" name="right" type="String" /> <description> </description> </operator> <operator name="operator =="> <return type="bool" /> <argument index="0" name="right" type="StringName" /> <description> </description> </operator> </operators> </class>
