`add(var string, openArray[char])` overload #24367

Closed metagn closed 1 month ago

metagn commented 1 month ago

The only overloads for add to string are for char, string and cstring. An overload that allows adding an openArray[char] does not exist, for things like cstrings with a specific length, sections of seq[char], ptr UncheckedArray[char] etc. Writing it manually via for c in openarr: str.add(c) would be much less efficient than a specialized overload.

Same goes for insert.
