LazStartsStr function

Declaration

function LazStartsStr(const ASubText: string; const AText: string)
: Boolean

Description

LazStartsStr is a Boolean function used to determine if the string in AText starts with the text specified in ASubText. It is a modified version of StartsStr from the RTL strutils.pp unit.

LazStartsStr casts the values in ASubText and AText to PChar types, and calls StrLComp to perform the comparison.

The returns value is True when AText begins with the specified sub-text. It also returns True when ASubText is an empty string (''), which is Delphi compatible.
