I have worked out the following implementation for trimming the leading and trailing whitespace characters of a string (I am surprised not to see these as member functions). Am I doing it correctly, or is there a better way to do it? Thanks, Gus //////////// Source code begin /////////////////////

Hi, I need help getting rid of trailing white spaces. I am searching a file for various data (not important) and retrieving it. I output the data if found to a file. An example would be: HD='Three blind mice ' My output would consist of: Three Blind Mice (w/ all the white space behind being printed until the quote mark is reached) I don't the white space after the text to be printed.

I am trying to find a way to remove the leading and tailing blanks from a string. What I have come up with is not doing the work as I expected; because if the value I pass to the function is " string " the leading and trailing blanks are not removed. What am I doing wrong? trimIt( std::string s ) { size_t offset = s.length(); // Trim leading spaces ??? s.erase( 0, s.find_first_not_of( "\t\n" ) );

How do I add trailing spaces within a right-justified textBox? In order to add a trailing space to the text in a right-justified textBox, I use to just append a space to the end of the text string. But now, textBox seems to have gotten smarter, as it automatically remove trailing spaces. So the question remains: How now do I add trailing spaces to text inside a right-justified textBox?

First off, my apologies if this is in the wrong newsgroup, but I hope I'm close enough. I'm trying to do some parsing of a CSV file using OleDbConnection, but for some reason, when I populate my DataSet, it is trimming the trailing spaces. Anybody know why? Here is my code: System.Data.OleDb.OleDbConnection connection = null;

I'd been using +(\+*)?@(+\.)++ as the validator for an email address. If the user enters a leading or trailing space, the email is invalid. 1.

I am developing a program that requires me to read a string of data from a text field in a database. Data is parsed from the string based upon a starting position/length. If a piece of data doesn't meet the required field length, then spaces are added, thus my issue. It appears VB.net is trimming any trailing spaces. What should be a 250 character data string is only 243 (less 7 trailing spaces). Is there a way to get this to stop? I...

Hey all, I've noticed an obscure little quirk: it appears that if you use a login with trailing spaces on the name, SYSTEM_USER automatically trims those trailing spaces in SQL Server 2000, but not SQL Server 2005. Anybody know if this change in behavior is documented? If it is intentional? Is there a "quick fix" to revert to the old behavior (to automatically RTRIM the results of SYSTEM_USER in 2005) until code can be changed?

Hello folks, I am unable to find appropriate documentation on the type promotion of bit-fields when using the generalised comparison operator "<=>". The problem is that using the GNU compilers, it seems that the internal comparison operator "<=>" tries to promote arguments from unsigned to signed. This is as boiled down as I can make it. Here is my compilation command: g++-12 -std=c++20 -Wnarrowing bit_field.cpp Here is the code in...
