Detailed Description

The inline Qt::Literals::StringLiterals namespace declares string literal operators for Qt types. Because both Literals and StringLiterals namespaces are declared as inline, the symbols from this namespace can be accessed by adding one of the following to your code:

// Makes visible only the literal operators declared in StringLiterals
using namespace Qt::Literals::StringLiterals;

// Makes visible literal operators declared in all inline namespaces
// inside Literals
using namespace Qt::Literals;

// Makes visible all symbols (including all literal operators) declared
// in the Qt namespace
using namespace Qt;

Function Documentation

[since 6.4] QLatin1StringView operator""_L1(const char *str, size_t size)

Literal operator that creates a QLatin1StringView out of the first size characters in the char string literal str.

The following code creates a QLatin1StringView:

using namespace Qt::Literals::StringLiterals;

auto str = "hello"_L1;

This function was introduced in Qt 6.4.

See also Qt::Literals::StringLiterals.

[since 6.4] QLatin1Char operator""_L1(char ch)

Literal operator that creates a QLatin1Char out of ch.

The following code creates a QLatin1Char:

using namespace Qt::Literals::StringLiterals;

auto ch = 'a'_L1;

This function was introduced in Qt 6.4.

See also Qt::Literals::StringLiterals.

[since 6.4] QByteArray operator""_ba(const char *str, size_t size)

Literal operator that creates a QByteArray out of the first size characters in the char string literal str.

The QByteArray is created at compile time, and the generated string data is stored in the read-only segment of the compiled object file. Duplicate literals may share the same read-only memory. This functionality is interchangeable with QByteArrayLiteral, but saves typing when many string literals are present in the code.

The following code creates a QByteArray:

using namespace Qt::Literals::StringLiterals;

auto str = "hello"_ba;

This function was introduced in Qt 6.4.

See also Qt::Literals::StringLiterals.

[since 6.4] QString operator""_s(const char16_t *str, size_t size)

Literal operator that creates a QString out of the first size characters in the char16_t string literal str.

The QString is created at compile time, and the generated string data is stored in the read-only segment of the compiled object file. Duplicate literals may share the same read-only memory. This functionality is interchangeable with QStringLiteral, but saves typing when many string literals are present in the code.

The following code creates a QString:

using namespace Qt::Literals::StringLiterals;

auto str = u"hello"_s;

This function was introduced in Qt 6.4.
