  \page Stringfields String Fields
  \brief String fields in structures
 
  This file contains objects and macros used to manage string
  fields in structures without requiring them to be allocated
  as fixed-size buffers or requiring individual allocations for
  for each field.
 
  Using this functionality is quite simple. An example structure
  with three fields is defined like this:
 
  \code
  struct sample_fields {
      int x1;
      AST_DECLARE_STRING_FIELDS(
          AST_STRING_FIELD(foo);
          AST_STRING_FIELD(bar);
          AST_STRING_FIELD(blah);
      );
      long x2;
  };
  \endcode
 
  When an instance of this structure is allocated (either statically or
  dynamically), the fields and the pool of storage for them must be
  initialized:
 
  \code
  struct sample_fields *x;
 
  x = ast_calloc(1, sizeof(*x));
  if (x == NULL || ast_string_field_init(x, 252)) {
    if (x)
        ast_free(x);
    x = NULL;
    ... handle error
  }
  \endcode
 
  Fields will default to pointing to an empty string, and will revert to
  that when ast_string_field_set() is called with a NULL argument.
  A string field will \b never contain NULL.
 
  ast_string_field_init(x, 0) will reset fields to the
  initial value while keeping the pool allocated.
 
  Reading the fields is much like using 'const char * const' fields in the
  structure: you cannot write to the field or to the memory it points to.
 
  Writing to the fields must be done using the wrapper macros listed below;
  and assignments are always by value (i.e. strings are copied):
  * ast_string_field_set() stores a simple value;
  * ast_string_field_build() builds the string using a printf-style format;
  * ast_string_field_build_va() is the varargs version of the above;
  * variants of these function allow passing a pointer to the field
    as an argument.
 
  \code
  ast_string_field_set(x, foo, "infinite loop");
  ast_string_field_set(x, foo, NULL); // set to an empty string
  ast_string_field_ptr_set(x, &x->bar, "right way");
 
  ast_string_field_build(x, blah, "%d %s", zipcode, city);
  ast_string_field_ptr_build(x, &x->blah, "%d %s", zipcode, city);
 
  ast_string_field_build_va(x, bar, fmt, args)
  ast_string_field_ptr_build_va(x, &x->bar, fmt, args)
  \endcode
 
  When the structure instance is no longer needed, the fields
  and their storage pool must be freed:
 
  \code
  ast_string_field_free_memory(x);
  ast_free(x);
  \endcode
 
  A new feature "Extended String Fields" has been added in 13.9.0.
 
  An extended field is one that is declared outside the AST_DECLARE_STRING_FIELDS
  block but still inside the parent structure.  It's most useful for extending
  structures where adding a new string field to an existing AST_DECLARE_STRING_FIELDS
  block would break ABI compatibility.
 
  Example:
 
  \code
  struct original_structure_version {
      AST_DECLARE_STRING_FIELDS(
          AST_STRING_FIELD(foo);
          AST_STRING_FIELD(bar);
      );
      int x1;
      int x2;
  };
  \endcode
 
  Adding "blah" to the existing string fields breaks ABI compatibility because it changes
  the offsets of x1 and x2.
 
  \code
  struct new_structure_version {
      AST_DECLARE_STRING_FIELDS(
          AST_STRING_FIELD(foo);
          AST_STRING_FIELD(bar);
          AST_STRING_FIELD(blah);
      );
      int x1;
      int x2;
  };
  \endcode
 
  However, adding "blah" as an extended string field to the end of the structure doesn't break
  ABI compatibility but still allows the use of the existing pool.
 
  \code
  struct new_structure_version {
      AST_DECLARE_STRING_FIELDS(
          AST_STRING_FIELD(foo);
          AST_STRING_FIELD(bar);
      );
      int x1;
      int x2;
      AST_STRING_FIELD_EXTENDED(blah);
  };
  \endcode
 
  The only additional step required is to call ast_string_field_init_extended so the
  pool knows about the new field.  It must be called AFTER ast_string_field_init or
  ast_calloc_with_stringfields.  Although ast_calloc_with_stringfields is used in the
  sample below, it's not necessary for extended string fields.
 
  \code
 
  struct new_structure_version *x = ast_calloc_with_stringfields(1, struct new_structure_version, 252);
  if (!x) {
      return;
  }
 
  ast_string_field_init_extended(x, blah);
  \endcode
 
  The new field can now be treated just like any other string field and it's storage will
  be released with the rest of the string fields.
 
  \code
  ast_string_field_set(x, foo, "infinite loop");
  ast_stringfield_free_memory(x);
  ast_free(x);
  \endcode
 
  This completes the API description.
