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;

If the buffer is fixed it cannot be resized:
unsigned _fixed : 1;

/** The current state of the buffer. If writing to the buffer fails

ldns_status _status;
};
typedef struct ldns_struct_buffer ldns_buffer;

/ldns_buffer_new/() creates a new buffer with the specified capacity.

.br capacity: the size (in bytes) to allocate for the buffer .br 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().

.br buffer: pointer to the buffer to put the data in .br data: the data to encapsulate in the buffer .br 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. .br 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. .br *buffer: the buffer to be freed .br 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. .br *result: resulting buffer which is copied to. .br *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. .br *buffer: the buffer to be exported .br 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.

.br buffer: buffer containing char * data .br 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.

.br buffer: buffer containing char * data .br Returns null terminated char * data, or NULL on error
