Hi,everyone,
How to use strip or stripRight on char[len]?

For example:

string abcs ="aabc    ";
auto abcsaa = abcs.stripRight;
writeln(abcsaa);
writeln("---abcsaa--stripRight ok---- ");


  char[100] abc ="aabc    ";
  auto abcaa = ((abc).dup).stripRight;
  writeln(abcaa);
writeln("----stripRight error----- ");

Where is error? Thanks.

try:

auto abcaa = stripRight(abc[])

just make sure you do NOT return that abcaa from the function or 
store it in an object. It still refers to the static array that 
does not outlive that function.

It is simply that these functions require a slice so it can 
resize it and you can't resize a static array.

    char[100] abc ="aabc    ";
    string aa = to!string(abc);
    string aaa = aa.stripRight;


It get the same result.

  It get the same result too.

Now,I want to get the result:

  char[100] Path;
  writeln("will get path ");
  SHGetSpecialFolderPath(NULL,cast(char*)Path.ptr,CSIDL_DESKTOP,0);

if use char[] Path;

It not get the result.

How to strip the Path? Thanks.

You don't strip that at all, the function writes a 
zero-terminated string to the buffer. So either: use the pointer 
as-is to other C functions, or  call the `fromStringz` function 
in Phobos to convert it and copy it if you want to store it.

http://dpldocs.info/experimental-docs/std.string.fromStringz.html

import std.string;
string s = fromStringz(abc.ptr).idup; // the idup copies it out
