+/* This file provides a dynamic C string with an initial stack allocated
+   buffer.  Since it is based on dynarray, it provides dynamic size
+   expansion and heap usage for large strings.
+
+   The following parameters are optional:
+
+   CHAR_ARRAY_INITIAL_SIZE
+      The size of the statically allocated array (default is 256).  It will
+      be used to define DYNARRAY_INITIAL_SIZE.
+
+   The following functions are provided:
+
+   bool char_array_init_empty (struct char_array *);
+   bool char_array_init_str (struct char_array *, const char *);
+   bool char_array_init_str_size (struct char_array *, const char *, size_t);
+   bool char_array_is_empty (struct char_array *);
+   const char *char_array_str (struct char_array *);
+   char char_array_pos (struct char_array *, size_t);
+   size_t char_array_length (struct char_array *);
+   bool char_array_set_str (struct char_array *, const char *);

+   bool char_array_replace_str_pos (struct char_array *, size_t, const char *,
+				    size_t);
+
+   For instance:
+
+   struct char_array str;
+
+   // str == "testing"
+   char_array_init_str (&str, "testing");
+
+   // c == 's'
+   char c = char_array_pos (&str, 2);
+
+   // str = "testing2"
+   char_array_set_str (&str, "testing2");
+
+   // str = "testig2"
+   char_array_erase (&str, 5);
+
+   // str = "123testig2";
+   char_array_prepend_str (&str, "123");
+
+   // len = 10;
+   size_t len = char_array_length (&str);
