std::basic_string_view<CharT,Traits>::contains

From cppreference.com
 
 
 
 
constexpr bool contains( basic_string_view sv ) const noexcept;
(1) (since C++23)
constexpr bool contains( CharT c ) const noexcept;
(2) (since C++23)
constexpr bool contains( const CharT* s ) const;
(3) (since C++23)

Checks if the string view contains the given substring, where

1) the substring is a string view.
2) the substring is a single character.
3) the substring is a null-terminated character string.

All three overloads are equivalent to return find(x) != npos;, where x is the parameter.

Parameters

sv - a string view
c - a single character
s - a null-terminated character string

Return value

true if the string view contains the provided substring, false otherwise.

Example

#include <string_view>
using namespace std::literals;
 
static_assert

    // bool contains(basic_string_view x) const noexcept;
    "https://cppreference.com"sv.contains("cpp"sv) == true and
    "https://cppreference.com"sv.contains("php"sv) == false and
 
    // bool contains(CharT x) const noexcept;
    "C++23"sv.contains('+') == true and
    "C++23"sv.contains('-') == false and
 
    // bool contains(const CharT* x) const;
    std::string_view("basic_string_view").contains("string") == true and
    std::string_view("basic_string_view").contains("String") == false
