Commit Message

This moves the definitions of the COW string to a separate file, so that
they don't need to be preprocessed for the common case. We could also
move the SSO string definitions to a new file, so that they don't need
to be preprocessed for the old ABI case, but that would require more
shovel work because there are some parts of <bits/basic_string.h> and
<bits/basic_string.tcc> that are common to both definitions.

libstdc++-v3/ChangeLog:

	* include/Makefile.am: Add new header.
	* include/Makefile.in: Regenerate.
	* include/bits/basic_string.h [!_GLIBCXX_USE_CXX11_ABI]
	(basic_string): Move definition of Copy-on-Write string to
	new file.
	* include/bits/basic_string.tcc: Likewise.
	* include/bits/cow_string.h: New file.

Tested powerpc64le-linux. Committed to trunk.

    libstdc++: Move COW string definitions to separate header
    
    This moves the definitions of the COW string to a separate file, so that
    they don't need to be preprocessed for the common case. We could also
    move the SSO string definitions to a new file, so that they don't need
    to be preprocessed for the old ABI case, but that would require more
    shovel work because there are some parts of <bits/basic_string.h> and
    <bits/basic_string.tcc> that are common to both definitions.

-   *
-   *  A string looks like this:
-   *
-   *  @code
-   *                                        [_Rep]
-   *                                        _M_length
-   *   [basic_string<char_type>]            _M_capacity
-   *   _M_dataplus                          _M_refcount
-   *   _M_p ---------------->               unnamed array of char_type
-   *  @endcode
-   *
-   *  Where the _M_p points to the first character in the string, and
-   *  you cast it to a pointer-to-_Rep and subtract 1 to get a
-   *  pointer to the header.
-   *
-   *  This approach has the enormous advantage that a string object
-   *  requires only one allocation.  All the ugliness is confined
-   *  within a single %pair of inline functions, which each compile to
-   *  a single @a add instruction: _Rep::_M_data(), and
-   *  string::_M_rep(); and the allocation function which gets a
-   *  block of raw bytes and with room enough and constructs a _Rep
-   *  object at the front.
-   *
-   *  The reason you want _M_data pointing to the character %array and
-   *  not the _Rep is so that the debugger can see the string
-   *  contents. (Probably we should add a non-inline member to get
-   *  the _Rep for the debugger to use, so users can check the actual
-   *  string length.)
-   *
-   *  Note that the _Rep object is a POD so that you can have a
-   *  static <em>empty string</em> _Rep object already @a constructed before
-   *  static constructors have run.  The reference-count encoding is
-   *  chosen so that a 0 indicates one reference, so you never try to
-   *  destroy the empty-string _Rep object.
-   *
-   *  All but the last paragraph is considered pretty conventional
-   *  for a C++ string implementation.

+   *  Nathan Myers <ncm@cantrip.org>.
+   *
+   *  A string looks like this:
+   *
+   *  @code
+   *                                        [_Rep]
+   *                                        _M_length
+   *   [basic_string<char_type>]            _M_capacity
+   *   _M_dataplus                          _M_refcount
+   *   _M_p ---------------->               unnamed array of char_type
+   *  @endcode
+   *
+   *  Where the _M_p points to the first character in the string, and
+   *  you cast it to a pointer-to-_Rep and subtract 1 to get a
+   *  pointer to the header.
+   *
+   *  This approach has the enormous advantage that a string object
+   *  requires only one allocation.  All the ugliness is confined
+   *  within a single %pair of inline functions, which each compile to
+   *  a single @a add instruction: _Rep::_M_data(), and
+   *  string::_M_rep(); and the allocation function which gets a
+   *  block of raw bytes and with room enough and constructs a _Rep
+   *  object at the front.
+   *
+   *  The reason you want _M_data pointing to the character %array and
+   *  not the _Rep is so that the debugger can see the string
+   *  contents. (Probably we should add a non-inline member to get
+   *  the _Rep for the debugger to use, so users can check the actual
+   *  string length.)
+   *
+   *  Note that the _Rep object is a POD so that you can have a
+   *  static <em>empty string</em> _Rep object already @a constructed before
+   *  static constructors have run.  The reference-count encoding is
+   *  chosen so that a 0 indicates one reference, so you never try to
+   *  destroy the empty-string _Rep object.
+   *
+   *  All but the last paragraph is considered pretty conventional
+   *  for a C++ string implementation.
