String Utilities
String manipulation on Symbian is tricky though, Symbian has a rich set of APIs for formatting/manipulating strings with both UNICODE (16 bit variants) and narrow character sets (8-bits). Users familiar with Standard C string manipulations may find using these APIs complex.
When writing hybrid applications on Symbian using native Symbian APIs as well as Open C APIs, the user may need to convert the SYMBIAN descriptors to standard C character strings and vice versa. Especially, in case of writing hybrid applications on open C, user faces this conversion problem more frequently. It is really difficult to do these conversions without the thorough knowledge of SYMBIAN descriptors.
String Utilities Ex is a library, which helps Open C developers. It exports several string- utility APIs for descriptor to character string conversions and vice versa. This library enables the user to write a hybrid application on Open C, with out knowing much about SYMBIAN descriptors
