487 * Wraps lines to a predefined length.
489 * This utility class wraps lines at word breaks to produce lines that are not
490 * longer than a predefined length. Explicit newlines ('\\n') are preserved.
491 * Only space is considered a word separator. If a single word exceeds the
492 * maximum line length, it is still printed on a single line.
493 * Extra whitespace is stripped from the end of produced lines.
494 * Other options on the wrapping, such as the line length or indentation,
495 * can be changed using a TextLineWrapperSettings object.
497 * Two interfaces to do the wrapping are provided:
498 * -# High-level interface using either wrapToString() (produces a single
499 * string with embedded newlines) or wrapToVector() (produces a vector of
500 * strings with each line as one element).
501 * These methods operate on std::string and wrap the entire input string.
502 * -# Low-level interface using findNextLine() and formatLine().
503 * findNextLine() operates either on a C string or an std::string, and does
504 * not do any memory allocation (so it does not throw). It finds the next
505 * line to be wrapped, considering the wrapping settings.
506 * formatLine() does whitespace operations on the line found by
507 * findNextLine() and returns an std::string.
508 * These methods allow custom wrapping implementation to either avoid
509 * exceptions or to wrap only a part of the input string.
511 * Typical usage:
512 * \code
513 gmx::TextLineWrapper wrapper;
514 wrapper.settings().setLineLength(78);
515 printf("%s\n", wrapper.wrapToString(textToWrap).c_str());
