    Hi Primo,

    perfectly valid, but this explicit length check is more safe:
    Uses "StringBuilder", "Console"
     
    Dim sb As New StringBuilder
       
    sb.Add("Ciao world")
    sb.Add("Ciao world")
       
    Dim s As String * 4 At sb.DataPtr 
      
    PrintL s
    printl 
     
    Long pointer
    pointer = sb.DataPtr 
    String st 
    long i
    
    
    For i=1 To sb.Length
      st = Peek$(pointer, i)
      PrintL st
    Next
     
    WaitKey
    
    With this in mind, it is natural that you can reach the string inside like:
    Uses "StringBuilder", "Console"
     
    Dim sb As New StringBuilder
       
    sb.Add("Ciao world")
    sb.Add("Ciao world")
       
    Dim s As String * sb.Length At sb.DataPtr 
      
    PrintL s
     
    WaitKey

    Hi Petr
    you said in the announcement of TB 1.10.1 http://www.thinbasic.com/community/s...ll=1#post93686
    that StringBuilder can be correctly initialized via string
    what does that mean ?
    you already have posted above how to initialize a StringBuilder
    Dim sb As New StringBuilder
    sb.Add("Ciao world")
    sb.Add("Ciao world")
    Dim s As String * sb.Length At sb.DataPtr 
    PrintL s

    Hi primo,

    I meant that you can do:
    Dim sb As New StringBuilder("Ciao")
    
    It will set initial text plus set internal capacity to double of initial text length (speed optimization for further additions).
