    \brief The QLatin1Literal class provides a thin wrapper around string
    literals used in source code.

    Unlike \c QLatin1String, a \c QLatin1Literal can retrieve its size
    without iterating over the literal.

    The main use of \c QLatin1Literal is in conjunction with \c QStringBuilder
    to reduce the number of reallocations needed to build up a string from
    smaller chunks.

    \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.

    \sa QLatin1Literal, QString
*/

/*! \fn QStringBuilder::QStringBuilder(const A &a, const B &b)
  Constructs a QStringBuilder from \a a and \a b.
 */

/* \fn QStringBuilder::operator%(const A &a, const B &b)

    Returns a \c QStringBuilder object that is converted to a QString object
    when assigned to a variable of QString type or passed to a function that
    takes a QString parameter.

    This function is usable with arguments of type \c QString,
    \c QLatin1String, \c QLatin1Literal, \c QStringRef, 
    \c QChar, \c QCharRef, \c QLatin1Char, and \c char.
*/

/*! \fn QByteArray QStringBuilder::toLatin1() const
  Returns a Latin-1 representation of the string as a QByteArray.  The
  returned byte array is undefined if the string contains non-Latin1
  characters.
 */

/*!
