Scala example source code file (StringOps.scala)

This example Scala source code file (StringOps.scala) is included in my "Source Code Warehouse" project. The intent of this project is to help you more easily find Scala source code examples by using tags.

All credit for the original source code belongs to scala-lang.org; I'm just trying to make examples easier to find. (For my Scala work, see my Scala examples and tutorials.)

Scala tags/keywords

anyval, char, int, string, stringlike, stringops, wrappedstring

/**

 *  found in indexed sequences. Where needed, instances of `String` object
 *  are implicitly converted into this class.

 *  The difference between this class and `WrappedString` is that calling transformer
 *  methods such as `filter` and `map` will yield a `String` object, whereas a
 *  `WrappedString` will remain a `WrappedString`.
 *
 *  @param repr     the actual representation of this string operations object.
