/ / The message passing of libcaf
prohibits pointers in messages because / it enforces network transparent messaging.
/ Unfortunately, string literals in C++
have the type const char*, resp.
const char[]. Since libcaf
is a user-friendly library, / it silently converts string literals and C-strings to std::string
objects. It also converts unicode literals to the corresponding STL container.
A few examples: ~~ // sends a string containing "hello actor!" to itself send(self, "hello actor!");
const char* cstring = "cstring"; // sends an string containing "cstring" to itself send(self, cstring);
// sends an u16string containing the UTF16 string "hello unicode world!" send(self, u"hello unicode world!"); ~~
