Implémentation de String.Format () dans VB6

String.Format() peut-il être implémenté dans VB6, au moins une version suffisamment proche de celui-ci qui pourrait être utile lors de la programmation dans un bon vieux VB6?

Bonne ressource sur la question des performances de manipulation des chaînes VB6: http://www.aivosto.com/vbtips/stringopt2.html

Sur un problème non lié, j'ai également trouvé quelques fonctions de comparaison de chaînes, trouvez-les ici sur CodeReview.SE

Ces fonctions sont extrêmement utiles pour améliorer la lisibilité du VB6, surtout si vous avez été gâté avec du code .net récemment et que vous devez soudainement plonger dans une base de code VB6 ... Profitez-en!

Remarquez le ParamArray dans la signature de la méthode (merci @wqw): cela évite l'utilisation de plusieurs paramètres facultatifs (et évite les bogues d'utilisation avec la possibilité d'affecter value2 Sans affecter value1 lors de la dénomination des paramètres dans l'instruction d'appel). Comme il s'agit d'un ParamArray, les valeurs individuelles sont Variant, ce qui signifie que chaque paramètre peut être d'un type différent, VB effectue la conversion de chaîne en arrière-plan.

La fonction peut alors être consommée comme ceci:

?StringFormat("(C) Currency: . . . . . . . . {0:C}\n" & _
    "(D) Decimal:. . . . . . . . . {0:D}\n" & _
    "(E) Scientific: . . . . . . . {1:E}\n" & _
    "(F) Fixed point:. . . . . . . {1:F}\n" & _
    "(N) Number: . . . . . . . . . {0:N}\n" & _
    "(P) Percent:. . . . . . . . . {1:P}\n" & _
    "(R) Round-trip: . . . . . . . {1:R}\n" & _
    "(X) Hexadecimal:. . . . . . . {0:X}\n",-123, -123.45)

Production:

(C) Currency: . . . . . . . . -123.00$
(D) Decimal:. . . . . . . . . -123
(E) Scientific: . . . . . . . -1.23450E2
(F) Fixed point:. . . . . . . -123
(N) Number: . . . . . . . . . -123
(P) Percent:. . . . . . . . . -12,345%
(R) Round-trip: . . . . . . . -123.45
(X) Hexadecimal:. . . . . . . &HFFFFFF85

Et aussi comme ça:

?StringFormat("(c) Custom format: . . . . . .{0:cYYYY-MM-DD (MMMM)}\n" & _
    "(d) Short date: . . . . . . . {0:d}\n" & _
    "(D) Long date:. . . . . . . . {0:D}\n" & _
    "(T) Long time:. . . . . . . . {0:T}\n" & _
    "(f) Full date/short time: . . {0:f}\n" & _
    "(F) Full date/long time:. . . {0:F}\n" & _
    "(s) Sortable: . . . . . . . . {0:s}\n", Now())

Production:

(c) Custom format: . . . . . .2013-01-26 (January)
(d) Short date: . . . . . . . 1/26/2013
(D) Long date:. . . . . . . . Saturday, January 26, 2013
(T) Long time:. . . . . . . . 8:28:11 PM
(f) Full date/short time: . . 1/26/2013 8:28:11 PM
(F) Full date/long time:. . . Saturday, January 26, 2013 8:28:11 PM
(s) Sortable: . . . . . . . . 2013-01-26T20:28:11

Il est également possible de spécifier l'alignement (/ padding) et d'utiliser des séquences d'échappement:

?StringFormat ("\q{0}, {1}!\x20\n'{2,10:C2}'\n'{2,-10:C2}'", "hello", "world", 100)

"hello, world!"
'   100.00$'
'100.00$   '

En regardant des exemples de http://msdn.Microsoft.com/fr-fr/library/b1csw23d (v = vs.80) .aspx , seuls quelques spécificateurs de format ne sont pas implémentés, principalement date/spécificateurs d'heure ... mais je pense que le spécificateur de format de date/heure personnalisé "c" le compose.

La fonction utilise une implémentation simple de String.Contains():

Public Function StringContains(string_source As String, find_text As String, _
    Optional ByVal caseSensitive As Boolean = True) As Boolean
    StringContains = StringContainsAny(string_source, caseSensitive, find_text)
End Function

EDIT: Ce code gère désormais correctement les échappements "\\", comme mentionné dans les commentaires. De plus, alors que StringContains est certainement pratique et donne une lecture plus confortable qu'un appel à InStr(), la fonction StringContainsAny ci-dessous est encore meilleure:

Public Function StringContainsAny(string_source As String, ByVal caseSensitive As Boolean, _
    ParamArray find_values()) As Boolean

    Dim i As Integer, found As Boolean
    If caseSensitive Then
        For i = LBound(find_values) To UBound(find_values)
            found = (InStr(1, string_source, _
                find_values(i), vbBinaryCompare) <> 0)
            If found Then Exit For
        Next
    Else
        For i = LBound(find_values) To UBound(find_values)
            StringContainsAny = (InStr(1, LCase$(string_source), _ 
                LCase$(find_values(i)),   vbBinaryCompare) <> 0)
            If found Then Exit For
        Next
    End If
    StringContainsAny = found
End Function

Considérer ce qui suit:

foo = Instr(1, source, "value1") > 0 Or Instr(1, source, "value2") > 0 _
   Or Instr(1, source, "value3") > 0 Or Instr(1, source, "value4") > 0 _
   Or Instr(1, source, "value5") > 0 Or Instr(1, source, "value6") > 0 _

Avant VB peut déterminer si foo est TRUE ou FALSE, chaque appel de InStr() est effectué. Cependant, avec StringContainsAny(), la condition est satisfaite de la première valeur trouvée, ce qui en fait une instruction plus rapide.

EDIT: L'édition précédente a pratiquement effacé les séquences d'échappement; les a rétablies, en utilisant une petite classe "EscapeSequence" exposant deux propriétés et une méthode d'usine - cela permet de conserver la boucle for-each et de gérer toutes les échappements simples sans dupliquer beaucoup de code.

Ce code utilise également une fonction StringStartsWith, implémentée comme ceci:

Public Function StringStartsWith(ByVal find_text As String, ByVal string_source As String, Optional ByVal caseSensitive As Boolean = True) As Boolean

    If caseSensitive Then
        StringStartsWith = (Left$(string_source, LenB(find_text) / 2) = find_text)
    Else
        StringStartsWith = (Left$(LCase(string_source), LenB(find_text) / 2) = LCase$(find_text))
    End If

End Function
