/// \brief A switch()-like statement whose cases are string literals.
///
/// The StringSwitch class is a simple form of a switch() statement that
/// determines whether the given string matches one of the given string
/// literals. The template type parameter \p T is the type of the value that
/// will be returned from the string-switch expression. For example,
/// the following code switches on the name of a color in \c argv[i]:
///
/// \code
/// Color color = StringSwitch<Color>(argv[i])
///   .Case("red", Red)
///   .Case("orange", Orange)
///   .Case("yellow", Yellow)
///   .Case("green", Green)
///   .Case("blue", Blue)
///   .Case("indigo", Indigo)
///   .Cases("violet", "purple", Violet)
///   .Default(UnknownColor);
/// \endcode

class StringSwitch {
  /// \brief The string we are matching.
  StringRef Str;

  /// \brief The pointer to the result of this switch statement, once known,
  /// null before that.
