Migrate from string view lite to std::string_view#495
Merged
Conversation
This removes string_view lite as C++17 supports string views natively. For convenience (and to make the replacement simpler) ToString helper function is kept. Unfortunately C++17 has no starts/ends_with, helpers were added for this.
Fixes liblcf build when targetting C++20 or newer

Due to a different conversion API used (std::from_chars) conversion from hex strings is not supported anymore. We do not use this feature so should be fine to remove it
Lack of support in clang and older gcc versions

There was a problem hiding this comment.
Maybe we could have gotten away with a using StringView = std::string_view, but of course this is cleaner. :D

We would have :D. Besides start and endwith the interface is the same ;) |
Also slightly improves the performance because the amounts of fetches is reduced.
This will still fail to compile when starts_with etc. is used but at least gives some hint.
