public class BitReader

BitReader provides a bit reader that can read any number of bits from a memory buffer.

It provides functions for reading any number of bits into 8, 16, 32 and 64 bit variables.

Namespace: Gst.Base

Package: gstreamer-base-1.0

Creation methods:

public BitReader (uint8[] data)
Create a new BitReader instance, which will read from data.

Methods:

public void free ()
Frees a BitReader instance, which was previously allocated by BitReader.
public bool get_bits_uint16 (out uint16 val, uint nbits)
Read nbits bits into val and update the current position.
public bool get_bits_uint32 (out uint32 val, uint nbits)
Read nbits bits into val and update the current position.
public bool get_bits_uint64 (out uint64 val, uint nbits)
Read nbits bits into val and update the current position.
public bool get_bits_uint8 (out uint8 val, uint nbits)
Read nbits bits into val and update the current position.
public uint get_pos ()
Returns the current position of a BitReader instance in bits.
public uint get_remaining ()
Returns the remaining number of bits of a BitReader instance.
public uint get_size ()
Returns the total number of bits of a BitReader instance.
public void init (uint8[] data)
Initializes a BitReader instance to read from data.
public bool peek_bits_uint16 (out uint16 val, uint nbits)
Read nbits bits into val but keep the current position.
public bool peek_bits_uint32 (out uint32 val, uint nbits)
Read nbits bits into val but keep the current position.
public bool peek_bits_uint64 (out uint64 val, uint nbits)
Read nbits bits into val but keep the current position.
public bool peek_bits_uint8 (out uint8 val, uint nbits)
Read nbits bits into val but keep the current position.
public bool set_pos (uint pos)
Sets the new position of a BitReader instance to pos in bits.
public bool skip (uint nbits)
Skips nbits bits of the BitReader instance.
public bool skip_to_byte ()
Skips until the next byte.

Fields:

public uint bit
public uint byte
public unowned uint8[] data
public uint size
