+ \class QStringBuilder
+ \internal
+ \reentrant
+ \since 4.6
+
+ \brief The QStringBuilder class is a template class that provides a facility to build up QStrings from smaller chunks.
+
+ \ingroup tools
+ \ingroup shared
+ \ingroup string-processing
+
+
+ To build a QString by multiple concatenations, QString::operator+()
+ is typically used. This causes \e{n - 1} reallocations when building
+ a string from \e{n} chunks.
+
+ QStringBuilder uses expression templates to collect the individual
+ chunks, compute the total size, allocate the required amount of
+ memory for the final QString object, and copy the chunks into the
+ allocated memory.
+
+ The QStringBuilder class is not to be used explicitly in user
+ code. Instances of the class are created as return values of the
+ operator%() function, acting on objects of type QString,
+ QLatin1String, QLatin1Literal, QStringRef, QChar, QCharRef,
+ QLatin1Char, and \c char.
+
+ Concatenating strings with operator%() generally yields better
+ performance then using \c QString::operator+() on the same chunks
+ if there are three or more of them, and performs equally well in other
+ cases.
