* Add view() method on flatbuffers::String, to return a string_view type if support for std::string_view (or alternately std::experimental::string_view) is found * Move detection/definition of FLATBUFFERS_STRING_VIEW to base.h, use the macro (if it is defined) as the argument type for an overload of CreateString * Rename String::view() to String::string_view() and use the existing c_str() method for the data pointer * Add and explain minimum C++ standard version checks for FLATBUFFERS_STRING_VIEW implementations * Updated preprocessor indenting for FLATBUFFERS_STRING_VIEW * Convert FLATBUFFERS_STRING_VIEW macro to typedef in flatbuffers:: namespace, and boolean feature toggle macro FLATBUFFERS_HAS_STRING_VIEW * Prepend flatbuffers:: namespace to disambiguate flatbuffers::string_view typedef from String::string_view() * clang-format as-she-is-spoke for FLATBUFFERS_HAS_STRING_VIEW
FlatBuffers
FlatBuffers is an efficient cross platform serialization library for games and other memory constrained apps. It allows you to directly access serialized data without unpacking/parsing it first, while still having great forwards/backwards compatibility.

Integration
For applications on Google Play that integrate this tool, usage is tracked.
This tracking is done automatically using the embedded version string
(flatbuffer_version_string), and helps us continue to optimize it. Aside from
consuming a few extra bytes in your application binary, it shouldn't affect
your application at all. We use this information to let us know if FlatBuffers
is useful and if we should continue to invest in it. Since this is open
source, you are free to remove the version string but we would appreciate if
you would leave it in.
