DESCRIPTION ldns_buffer implementation of buffers to ease operations
ldns_buffers can contain arbitrary information, per octet. You can write to the current end of a buffer, read from the current position, and access any data within it.
Example use of buffers is in the source code of \ref host2str.c struct ldns_struct_buffer { The current position used for reading/writing: size_t _position;
The read/write limit: size_t _limit;
The amount of data the buffer can contain: size_t _capacity;
The data contained in the buffer: uint8_t *_data;
* multiple writes in sequence and check for success afterwards. */ ldns_status _status; }; typedef struct ldns_struct_buffer ldns_buffer;
ldns_buffer_new() creates a new buffer with the specified capacity.
capacity: the size (in bytes) to allocate for the buffer Returns the created buffer
ldns_buffer_new_frm_data() creates a buffer with the specified data. The data IS copied and MEMORY allocations are done. The buffer is not fixed and can be resized using buffer_reserve().
buffer: pointer to the buffer to put the data in data: the data to encapsulate in the buffer size: the size of the data
ldns_buffer_clear() clears the buffer and make it ready for writing. The buffer's limit is set to the capacity and the position is set to 0. buffer: the buffer to clear
ldns_buffer_printf() prints to the buffer, increasing the capacity if required using buffer_reserve(). The buffer's position is set to the terminating '\\0' Returns the number of characters written (not including the terminating '\\0') or -1 on failure.
ldns_buffer_free() frees the buffer. *buffer: the buffer to be freed Returns void
ldns_buffer_copy() Copy contents of the from buffer to the result buffer and then flips the result buffer. Data will be silently truncated if the result buffer is too small. *result: resulting buffer which is copied to. *from: what to copy to result.
ldns_buffer_export() Makes the buffer fixed and returns a pointer to the data. The caller is responsible for free'ing the result. *buffer: the buffer to be exported Returns void
ldns_buffer_export2str() Exports and returns the data in the buffer as a null terminated char * string. The returned string must be freed by the caller. The buffer must be in write modus and may thus not have been flipped. The buffer is fixed after this function returns.
buffer: buffer containing char * data Returns null terminated char * data, or NULL on error
ldns_buffer2str() Returns a copy of the data in the buffer as a null terminated char * string. The returned string must be freed by the caller. The buffer must be in write modus and may thus not have been flipped.
buffer: buffer containing char * data
