StringBuilder
A fast and low allocation StringBuilder for .NET.
Getting Started
Install the package:
PM> Install-Package LinkDotNet.StringBuilder
Afterward, use the package as follow:
using LinkDotNet.StringBuilder; // Namespace of the package
ValueStringBuilder stringBuilder = new ValueStringBuilder();
stringBuilder.AppendLine("Hello World");
string result = stringBuilder.ToString();
There are also smaller helper functions, which enable you to use ValueStringBuilder without any instance:
using LinkDotNet.StringBuilder;
_ = ValueStringBuilder.Concat("Hello ", "World"); // "Hello World"
_ = ValueStringBuilder.Concat("Hello", 1, 2, 3, "!"); // "Hello123!"
What does it solve?
The dotnet version of the StringBuilder is an all-purpose version that normally fits a wide variety of needs.
But sometimes, low allocation is key. Therefore I created the ValueStringBuilder. It is not a class but a that tries to allocate as little as possible.
If you want to know how the works and why it uses allocations and is even faster, check out blog post.
The blog goes into a bit more in detail about how it works with a simplistic version of the .
