\subsection{Detailed Description}
C++ Binding to Eina\+\_\+\+Stringshare. 

This class allows you to store a single copy of a string, and use in multiple places throughout your program.

This is a method to reduce the number of duplicated strings kept in memory. It\textquotesingle{}s pretty common for the same strings to be dynamically allocated repeatedly between applications and libraries, especially in circumstances where you could have multiple copies of a structure that allocates the string. So rather than duplicating and freeing these strings, you request a read-\/only pointer to an existing string and only incur the overhead of a hash look-\/up.

It sounds like micro-\/optimizing, but profiling has shown this can have a significant impact as you scale the number of copies up. It improves string creation/destruction speed, reduces memory use and decreases memory fragmentation, so a win all-\/around.

Check if two {\ttfamily \hyperlink{structefl_1_1eina_1_1stringshare}{eina\+::stringshare}} objects represent the same string. 

\begin{DoxyReturn}{Returns}
{\ttfamily true} if the strings of the objects are equal, {\ttfamily false} otherwise.
\end{DoxyReturn}
This operator checks if two {\ttfamily \hyperlink{structefl_1_1eina_1_1stringshare}{eina\+::stringshare}} objects represent the same string. Because of the nature of the objects, this operation falls into a simple pointer comparison, since identical strings are represented by the same instance.
