struct Allegro::StaticUString

Overview

Statically allocated temporary Allegro-friendly UTF-8 string

This is usually enough for Allegro counterpart of Crystal stdlib String. However, the memory location cannot be moved, so you cannot copy the struct. You need #dup to treat a string as an objective manner.

Modifying string will return AllocatedUString.
