Potential API change: StdStringReplacements methods take const STR* rather than const STR& #19

Open GoogleCodeExporter opened 9 years ago

GoogleCodeExporter commented 9 years ago
StdStringReplacements methods such as SetUsernameStr directly use the .data of 
the passed in const string reference rather than making a copy which the 
StdStringReplacements object owns.

Although this is mentioned in the header comments, it may be safer to change 
the API to take a header so callers don't try to call with string literals.

I searched through chromium codebase and did not find any callers of 
StdStringReplacements' methods which used string literals, so perhaps this is 
overly paranoid.
