public class ByteArray

Contains the public fields of a `GByteArray`.


Namespace: GLib
Package: glib-2.0

Content:

Static methods:

  • public static Bytes free_to_bytes (owned ByteArray array)
    Transfers the data from the `GByteArray` into a new immutable [struct@GLib.

Creation methods:

  • public ByteArray ()
    Creates a new `GByteArray` with a reference count of 1.
  • public ByteArray.sized (uint reserved_size)
    Creates a new `GByteArray` with reserved_size bytes preallocated.
  • public ByteArray.take (owned uint8[] data)
    Creates a byte array containing the data.

Methods:

  • public void append (uint8[] data)
    Adds the given bytes to the end of the `GByteArray`.
  • public void prepend (uint8[] data)
    Adds the given data to the start of the `GByteArray`.
  • public void remove_index (uint index)
    Removes the byte at the given index from a `GByteArray`.
  • public void remove_index_fast (uint index)
    Removes the byte at the given index from a `GByteArray`.
  • public void remove_range (uint index, uint length)
    Removes the given number of bytes starting at the given index from a `GByteArray`.
  • public void set_size (uint length)
    Sets the size of the `GByteArray`, expanding it if necessary.
  • public void sort (CompareFunc<int8> compare_func)
    Sorts a byte array, using compare_func which should be a `qsort ()`-style comparison function (returns less than zero for first arg is less than second arg, zero for equal, greater than zero if first arg is greater than second arg).
  • public void sort_with_data (CompareDataFunc<int8> compare_func)
    Like [func@GLib.
  • public uint8[] steal ()
    Frees the data in the array and resets the size to zero, while the underlying array is preserved for use elsewhere and returned to the caller.
