/*! \class QLatin1StringView
    \inmodule QtCore
    \brief The QLatin1StringView class provides a thin wrapper around
    a US-ASCII/Latin-1 encoded string literal.

    The byte array data is interpreted as UTF-8.

    Many of QString's member functions are overloaded to accept
    \c{const char *} instead of QString. This includes the copy
    constructor, the assignment operator, the comparison operators,
    and various other functions such as \l{QString::insert()}{insert()},
    \l{QString::append()}{append()}, and \l{QString::prepend()}{prepend()}.
    Some of these functions are optimized to avoid constructing a
    QString object for the \c{const char *} data. For example,
    assuming \c str is a QString,
 
    \snippet code/src_corelib_text_qstring.cpp 3
 
    is much faster than
 
    \snippet code/src_corelib_text_qstring.cpp 4
 
    because it doesn't construct four temporary QString objects and
    make a deep copy of the character data.
 
    However, that is not true for all QString member functions that take
    \c{const char *} and therefore applications should assume a temporary will
    be created, such as in
 
    \snippet code/src_corelib_text_qstring.cpp 4bis
 
    Applications that define \l QT_NO_CAST_FROM_ASCII (as explained
    in the QString documentation) don't have access to QString's
    \c{const char *} API. To provide an efficient way of specifying
    constant Latin-1 strings, Qt provides the QLatin1StringView, which is
    just a very thin wrapper around a \c{const char *}. Using
    QLatin1StringView, the example code above becomes
 
    \snippet code/src_corelib_text_qstring.cpp 5
 
    This is a bit longer to type, but it provides exactly the same
    benefits as the first version of the code, and is faster than
    converting the Latin-1 strings using QString::fromLatin1().
 
    Thanks to the QString(QLatin1StringView) constructor,
    QLatin1StringView can be used everywhere a QString is expected. For
    example:
 
    \snippet code/src_corelib_text_qstring.cpp 6
 
    \note If the function you're calling with a QLatin1StringView
    argument isn't actually overloaded to take QLatin1StringView, the
    implicit conversion to QString will trigger a memory allocation,
    which is usually what you want to avoid by using QLatin1StringView
    in the first place. In those cases, using QStringLiteral may be
    the better option.
 
    \note Only US-ASCII literals can be used in QLatin1StringView if the source
    code file is encoded in UTF-8, as \l{unicode}{Qt requires}. Non-US-ASCII
    literals like \c{QLatin1StringView("é")} will not be represented correctly.
    You can use octal or hex notation instead:
    \c{QLatin1StringView("\351")} or \c{QLatin1StringView("\xe9")},
    respectively.
