GByteArray is based on GArray, to provide arrays of bytes which grow automatically as elements are added.
To create a new GByteArray use g_byte_array_new().
To add elements to a GByteArray, use g_byte_array_append(), and
g_byte_array_prepend().
To set the size of a GByteArray, use g_byte_array_set_size().
To free a GByteArray, use g_byte_array_free().
Example 6. Using a GByteArray
GByteArray *gbarray;
gint i;
gbarray = g_byte_array_new ();
for (i = 0; i < 10000; i++)
g_byte_array_append (gbarray, (guint8*) "abcd", 4);
for (i = 0; i < 10000; i++)
{
g_assert (gbarray->data[4*i] == 'a');
g_assert (gbarray->data[4*i+1] == 'b');
g_assert (gbarray->data[4*i+2] == 'c');
g_assert (gbarray->data[4*i+3] == 'd');
}
g_byte_array_free (gbarray, TRUE);
typedef struct {
guint8 *data;
guint len;
} GByteArray;
The GByteArray struct allows access to the public fields of a GByteArray.
guint8 *data; |
a pointer to the element data. The data may be moved as elements are added to the GByteArray. |
guint len; |
the number of elements in the GByteArray. |
GByteArray* g_byte_array_new (void);
Creates a new GByteArray.
| Returns : | the new GByteArray. |
GByteArray* g_byte_array_sized_new (guint reserved_size);
Creates a new GByteArray with reserved_size bytes preallocated. This
avoids frequent reallocation, if you are going to add many bytes to
the array. Note however that the size of the array is still 0.
reserved_size : |
number of bytes preallocated. |
| Returns : | the new GByteArray. |
GByteArray* g_byte_array_append (GByteArray *array, const guint8 *data, guint len);
Adds the given bytes to the end of the GByteArray. The array will grow in size automatically if necessary.
array : |
a GByteArray. |
data : |
the byte data to be added. |
len : |
the number of bytes to add. |
| Returns : | the GByteArray. |
GByteArray* g_byte_array_prepend (GByteArray *array, const guint8 *data, guint len);
Adds the given data to the start of the GByteArray. The array will grow in size automatically if necessary.
array : |
a GByteArray. |
data : |
the byte data to be added. |
len : |
the number of bytes to add. |
| Returns : | the GByteArray. |
GByteArray* g_byte_array_remove_index (GByteArray *array, guint index_);
Removes the byte at the given index from a GByteArray. The following bytes are moved down one place.
array : |
a GByteArray. |
index_ : |
the index of the byte to remove. |
| Returns : | the GByteArray. |
GByteArray* g_byte_array_remove_index_fast (GByteArray *array, guint index_);
Removes the byte at the given index from a GByteArray.
The last element in the array is used to fill in the space, so this function
does not preserve the order of the GByteArray. But it is faster than
g_byte_array_remove_index().
array : |
a GByteArray. |
index_ : |
the index of the byte to remove. |
| Returns : | the GByteArray. |
GByteArray* g_byte_array_remove_range (GByteArray *array, guint index_, guint length);
Removes the given number of bytes starting at the given index from a GByteArray. The following elements are moved to close the gap.
array : |
a GByteArray.
|
index_ : |
the index of the first byte to remove. |
length : |
the number of bytes to remove. |
| Returns : | the GByteArray. |
Since 2.4
void g_byte_array_sort (GByteArray *array, GCompareFunc compare_func);
Sorts a byte array, using compare_func which should be a qsort()-style
comparison function (returns -1 for first arg is less than second arg, 0 for
equal, 1 if first arg is greater than second arg).
array : |
a GByteArray. |
compare_func : |
comparison function. |
void g_byte_array_sort_with_data (GByteArray *array, GCompareDataFunc compare_func, gpointer user_data);
Like g_byte_array_sort(), but the comparison function takes a user data argument.
array : |
a GByteArray. |
compare_func : |
comparison function. |
user_data : |
data to pass to compare_func.
|
GByteArray* g_byte_array_set_size (GByteArray *array, guint length);
Sets the size of the GByteArray, expanding it if necessary.
array : |
a GByteArray. |
length : |
the new size of the GByteArray. |
| Returns : | the GByteArray. |
guint8* g_byte_array_free (GByteArray *array, gboolean free_segment);
Frees the memory allocated by the GByteArray.
If free_segment is TRUE it frees the actual byte data.
array : |
a GByteArray. |
free_segment : |
if TRUE the actual byte data is freed as well.
|
| Returns : | the element data if free_segment is FALSE, otherwise NULL
