There are two overloads of rtl::OUString::compareToAscii:
* compareToAscii(char const * asciiStr) does a full comparison of *this
and the given asciiStr.
* compareToAscii(char cosnt * asciiStr, sal_Int32 maxLength) does a
shortened comparison of only up to maxLength characters of *this and the
given asciiStr.
That is,
s.compareToAscii(RTL_CONSTASCII_STRINGPARAM("foo")) == 0
translates to
s.startsWith("foo")
rather than any of
s.compareTo("foo") == 0
s == "foo"
This subtlety has introduced various bugs with recent string clean-up
commits, so I tried to systematically scrutinize the output of "git log
-ScompareToAscii --patch" now, at least the range of master commits from
recent 7cd539319943f43b6f66b72ad85ecc0012d3e007 back through the start
of 2011.
Please be very careful when you create or review commits that involve
clean-up of compareToAscii.
