Those objects provide an automatic management of shared name (character strings).

The underlying representation is based on a string shared by the different names. Each shared string is automatically released when the last name referencing it disapears (managed by a reference count technic).

Assignment operator. Very fast because there is only an assignement of pointer to the shared string and an incrementation of its reference counter. \mbox{\Hypertarget{classHurricane_1_1Name_a3b728f0b8aa027639ebd47c60addf738}\label{classHurricane_1_1Name_a3b728f0b8aa027639ebd47c60addf738}}

{\footnotesize\ttfamily bool Hurricane\+::\+Name\+::operator== (\begin{DoxyParamCaption}\item[{const \mbox{\hyperlink{classHurricane_1_1Name}{Name}} \&}]{name }\end{DoxyParamCaption}) const}

Equality operator. Very fast because it only tests the equality of pointers to the two shared strings (and not the equality of the two strings).

\begin{DoxyRemark}{Remarks}
Don\textquotesingle{}t loose on one side what you save on the other as shown in the following code \+: 
\begin{DoxyCode}
Cell* cell = ...; \textcolor{comment}{// we get the cell}
 
for\_each\_net(net, cellGetNets()) \{
   \textcolor{keywordflow}{if} (netGetName() == \textcolor{stringliteral}{"vdd"}) \{
      ... ;
   \}
   end\_for;
\}
\end{DoxyCode}
 Indeed, for each equality test, a name will be created from the string \char`\"{}vdd\char`\"{}. If the equality test is very fast, it is not the same for the name construction. So it is faster to write \+: 
\begin{DoxyCode}
Cell* cell = ...; \textcolor{comment}{// we get the cell}
 
\mbox{\hyperlink{classHurricane_1_1Name_a42636ecb0d4d7d03eb881420a244038b}{Name}} vdd = \textcolor{stringliteral}{"vdd"};
for\_each\_net(net, cellGetNets()) \{
   \textcolor{keywordflow}{if} (netGetName() == vdd) \{
      ...
   \}
   end\_for;
\}
\end{DoxyCode}
 Or yet faster \+: 
\begin{DoxyCode}
Cell* cell = ...; \textcolor{comment}{// we get the cell}
 
\textcolor{keyword}{static} \mbox{\hyperlink{classHurricane_1_1Name_a42636ecb0d4d7d03eb881420a244038b}{Name}} VDD = \textcolor{stringliteral}{"vdd"};
for\_each\_net(net, cellGetNets()) \{
   \textcolor{keywordflow}{if} (netGetName() == VDD) \{
      ...
   \}
   end\_for;
\}

Difference operator. Very fast because it only tests the difference of pointers to the two shared strings (and not the difference of the two strings). \mbox{\Hypertarget{classHurricane_1_1Name_a9ce91a54cd340fb1e14baf56797f1577}\label{classHurricane_1_1Name_a9ce91a54cd340fb1e14baf56797f1577}}
