//
// The `str_format` library is a typesafe replacement for the family of
// `printf()` string formatting routines within the `<cstdio>` standard library
// header. Like the `printf` family, `str_format` uses a "format string" to
// perform argument substitutions based on types. See the `FormatSpec` section
// below for format string documentation.
//
// Example:
//
//   std::string s = absl::StrFormat(
//                      "%s %s You have $%d!", "Hello", name, dollars);
//
// The library consists of the following basic utilities:
//
//   * `absl::StrFormat()`, a type-safe replacement for `std::sprintf()`, to
//     write a format string to a `string` value.
//   * `absl::StrAppendFormat()` to append a format string to a `string`
//   * `absl::StreamFormat()` to more efficiently write a format string to a
//     stream, such as`std::cout`.
//   * `absl::PrintF()`, `absl::FPrintF()` and `absl::SNPrintF()` as
//     drop-in replacements for `std::printf()`, `std::fprintf()` and
//     `std::snprintf()`.
//
//     Note: An `absl::SPrintF()` drop-in replacement is not supported as it
//     is generally unsafe due to buffer overflows. Use `absl::StrFormat` which
//     returns the string as output instead of expecting a pre-allocated buffer.
//
// Additionally, you can provide a format string (and its associated arguments)
// using one of the following abstractions:
//
//   * A `FormatSpec` class template fully encapsulates a format string and its
//     type arguments and is usually provided to `str_format` functions as a
//     variadic argument of type `FormatSpec<Arg...>`. The `FormatSpec<Args...>`
//     template is evaluated at compile-time, providing type safety.
//   * A `ParsedFormat` instance, which encapsulates a specific, pre-compiled
//     format string for a specific set of type(s), and which can be passed
//     between API boundaries. (The `FormatSpec` type should not be used
//     directly except as an argument type for wrapper functions.)
//
// The `str_format` library provides the ability to output its format strings to
// arbitrary sink types:
//
//   * A generic `Format()` function to write outputs to arbitrary sink types,
//     which must implement a `FormatRawSink` interface.
//
//   * A `FormatUntyped()` function that is similar to `Format()` except it is
//     loosely typed. `FormatUntyped()` is not a template and does not perform
//     any compile-time checking of the format string; instead, it returns a
//     boolean from a runtime check.
//
// In addition, the `str_format` library provides extension points for
// augmenting formatting to new types.  See "StrFormat Extensions" below.

// FormatSpec
//
// The `FormatSpec` type defines the makeup of a format string within the
// `str_format` library. It is a variadic class template that is evaluated at
// compile-time, according to the format string and arguments that are passed to
// it.
//
// You should not need to manipulate this type directly. You should only name it
// if you are writing wrapper functions which accept format arguments that will
// be provided unmodified to functions in this library. Such a wrapper function
// might be a class method that provides format arguments and/or internally uses
// the result of formatting.
//
// For a `FormatSpec` to be valid at compile-time, it must be provided as
// either:
//
// * A `constexpr` literal or `absl::string_view`, which is how it most often
//   used.
// * A `ParsedFormat` instantiation, which ensures the format string is
//   valid before use. (See below.)
//
// Example:
//
//   // Provided as a string literal.
//   absl::StrFormat("Welcome to %s, Number %d!", "The Village", 6);
//
//   // Provided as a constexpr absl::string_view.
//   constexpr absl::string_view formatString = "Welcome to %s, Number %d!";
//   absl::StrFormat(formatString, "The Village", 6);
//
//   // Provided as a pre-compiled ParsedFormat object.
//   // Note that this example is useful only for illustration purposes.
//   absl::ParsedFormat<'s', 'd'> formatString("Welcome to %s, Number %d!");
//   absl::StrFormat(formatString, "TheVillage", 6);
//
// A format string generally follows the POSIX syntax as used within the POSIX
// `printf` specification. (Exceptions are noted below.)
//
// (See http://pubs.opengroup.org/onlinepubs/9699919799/functions/fprintf.html)
//
// In specific, the `FormatSpec` supports the following type specifiers:
//   * `c` for characters
//   * `s` for strings
//   * `d` or `i` for integers
//   * `o` for unsigned integer conversions into octal
//   * `x` or `X` for unsigned integer conversions into hex
//   * `u` for unsigned integers
//   * `f` or `F` for floating point values into decimal notation
//   * `e` or `E` for floating point values into exponential notation
//   * `a` or `A` for floating point values into hex exponential notation
//   * `g` or `G` for floating point values into decimal or exponential
//     notation based on their precision
//   * `p` for pointer address values
//   * `n` for the special case of writing out the number of characters
//     written to this point. The resulting value must be captured within an
//     `absl::FormatCountCapture` type.
//   * `v` for values using the default format for a deduced type. These deduced
//     types include many of the primitive types denoted here as well as
//     user-defined types containing the proper extensions. (See below for more
//     information.)
//
// Implementation-defined behavior:
//   * A null pointer provided to "%s" or "%p" is output as "(nil)".
//   * A non-null pointer provided to "%p" is output in hex as if by %#x or
//     %#lx.
//
// NOTE: `o`, `x\X` and `u` will convert signed values to their unsigned
// counterpart before formatting.
//
// Examples:
//     "%c", 'a'                -> "a"
//     "%c", 32                 -> " "
//     "%s", "C"                -> "C"
//     "%s", std::string("C++") -> "C++"
//     "%d", -10                -> "-10"
//     "%o", 10                 -> "12"
//     "%x", 16                 -> "10"
//     "%f", 123456789          -> "123456789.000000"
//     "%e", .01                -> "1.00000e-2"
//     "%a", -3.0               -> "-0x1.8p+1"
//     "%g", .01                -> "1e-2"
//     "%p", (void*)&value      -> "0x7ffdeb6ad2a4"
//
//     int n = 0;
//     std::string s = absl::StrFormat(
//         "%s%d%n", "hello", 123, absl::FormatCountCapture(&n));
//     EXPECT_EQ(8, n);
//
// NOTE: the `v` specifier (for "value") is a type specifier not present in the
// POSIX specification. %v will format values according to their deduced type.
// `v` uses `d` for signed integer values, `u` for unsigned integer values, `g`
// for floating point values, and formats boolean values as "true"/"false"
// (instead of 1 or 0 for booleans formatted using d). `const char*` is not
// supported; please use `std::string` and `string_view`. `char` is also not
// supported due to ambiguity of the type. This specifier does not support
// modifiers.
//
// The `FormatSpec` intrinsically supports all of these fundamental C++ types:
//
// *   Characters: `char`, `signed char`, `unsigned char`, `wchar_t`
// *   Integers: `int`, `short`, `unsigned short`, `unsigned`, `long`,
//         `unsigned long`, `long long`, `unsigned long long`
// *   Enums: printed as their underlying integral value
// *   Floating-point: `float`, `double`, `long double`
//
// However, in the `str_format` library, a format conversion specifies a broader
// C++ conceptual category instead of an exact type. For example, `%s` binds to
// any string-like argument, so `std::string`, `std::wstring`,
// `absl::string_view`, `const char*`, and `const wchar_t*` are all accepted.
// Likewise, `%d` accepts any integer-like argument, etc.

// ParsedFormat
//
// A `ParsedFormat` is a class template representing a preparsed `FormatSpec`,
// with template arguments specifying the conversion characters used within the
// format string. Such characters must be valid format type specifiers, and
// these type specifiers are checked at compile-time.
//
// Instances of `ParsedFormat` can be created, copied, and reused to speed up
// formatting loops. A `ParsedFormat` may either be constructed statically, or
// dynamically through its `New()` factory function, which only constructs a
// runtime object if the format is valid at that time.
//
// Example:
//
//   // Verified at compile time.
//   absl::ParsedFormat<'s', 'd'> format_string("Welcome to %s, Number %d!");
//   absl::StrFormat(format_string, "TheVillage", 6);
//
//   // Verified at runtime.

// but cannot be combined). Some common conversions also have predefined enum
// values, such as `absl::FormatConversionCharSet::kIntegral`.
//
// Example:
//   // Extended format supports multiple conversion characters per argument,

//   using MyFormat = absl::ParsedFormat<absl::FormatConversionCharSet::d |

// void AbslStringify(Sink& sink, const X& value);
//
// An `AbslStringify()` overload for a type should only be declared in the same
// file and namespace as said type.
//
// Note that unlike with AbslFormatConvert(), AbslStringify() does not allow
// customization of allowed conversion characters. AbslStringify() uses `%v` as
// the underlying conversion specififer. Additionally, AbslStringify() supports
// use with absl::StrCat while AbslFormatConvert() does not.
//
// Example:
//
// struct Point {
//   // To add formatting support to `Point`, we simply need to add a free
//   // (non-member) function `AbslStringify()`. This method prints in the
//   // request format using the underlying `%v` specifier. You can add such a
//   // free function using a friend declaration within the body of the class.
//   // The sink parameter is a templated type to avoid requiring dependencies.
//   template <typename Sink>
//   friend void AbslStringify(Sink& sink, const Point& p) {
//     absl::Format(&sink, "(%v, %v)", p.x, p.y);
//   }
//
//   int x;
//   int y;
// };
//
// AbslFormatConvert()
//
// The StrFormat library provides a customization API for formatting
// user-defined types using absl::StrFormat(). The API relies on detecting an
// overload in the user-defined type's namespace of a free (non-member)
// `AbslFormatConvert()` function, usually as a friend definition with the
// following signature:
//
// absl::FormatConvertResult<...> AbslFormatConvert(
//     const X& value,
//     const absl::FormatConversionSpec& spec,
//     absl::FormatSink *sink);
//
// An `AbslFormatConvert()` overload for a type should only be declared in the
// same file and namespace as said type.
//
// The abstractions within this definition include:
//
// * An `absl::FormatConversionSpec` to specify the fields to pull from a
//   user-defined type's format string
// * An `absl::FormatSink` to hold the converted string data during the
//   conversion process.
// * An `absl::FormatConvertResult` to hold the status of the returned
//   formatting operation
//
// The return type encodes all the conversion characters that your
// AbslFormatConvert() routine accepts.  The return value should be {true}.
// A return value of {false} will result in `StrFormat()` returning
// an empty string.  This result will be propagated to the result of
// `FormatUntyped`.
//
// Example:
//
// struct Point {
//   // To add formatting support to `Point`, we simply need to add a free
//   // (non-member) function `AbslFormatConvert()`.  This method interprets
//   // `spec` to print in the request format. The allowed conversion characters
//   // can be restricted via the type of the result, in this example
//   // string and integral formatting are allowed (but not, for instance
//   // floating point characters like "%f").  You can add such a free function
//   // using a friend declaration within the body of the class:
//   friend absl::FormatConvertResult<absl::FormatConversionCharSet::kString |
//                                    absl::FormatConversionCharSet::kIntegral>
//   AbslFormatConvert(const Point& p, const absl::FormatConversionSpec& spec,
//                     absl::FormatSink* s) {
//     if (spec.conversion_char() == absl::FormatConversionChar::s) {
//       absl::Format(s, "x=%vy=%v", p.x, p.y);
//     } else {
//       absl::Format(s, "%v,%v", p.x, p.y);
//     }
//     return {true};
//   }
