This implementation is for Ruby19 and Ruby20. It uses byteslice to get strings from byte based offsets. For Ruby20 this is faster than using the Stringscanner.charpos method (byteslice outperforms it, when strings are frozen).
Returns the length measured in number of characters from the given start and end byte offseta
# File lib/puppet/pops/parser/locator.rb, line 287 def char_length(offset, end_offset) string.byteslice(offset, end_offset - offset).length end
Returns the character offset for a given byte offset Ruby 19 is multibyte but has no character position methods, must use byteslice
# File lib/puppet/pops/parser/locator.rb, line 282 def char_offset(byte_offset) string.byteslice(0, byte_offset).length end
Returns the offset on line (first offset on a line is 0). Ruby 19 is multibyte but has no character position methods, must use byteslice
# File lib/puppet/pops/parser/locator.rb, line 275 def offset_on_line(offset) line_offset = line_index[ line_for_offset(offset)-1 ] string.byteslice(line_offset, offset-line_offset).length end
