SYNOPSIS

#include <stdint.h>
 
#include <stdbool.h>
 
#include <ldns/ldns.h>
size_t ldns_buffer_limit(ldns_buffer *buffer);
void ldns_buffer_set_limit(ldns_buffer *buffer, size_t limit);
size_t ldns_buffer_capacity(ldns_buffer *buffer);
bool ldns_buffer_set_capacity(ldns_buffer *buffer, size_t capacity);
bool ldns_buffer_reserve(ldns_buffer *buffer, size_t amount);
uint8_t * ldns_buffer_at(const ldns_buffer *buffer, size_t at);
uint8_t * ldns_buffer_begin(const ldns_buffer *buffer);
uint8_t * ldns_buffer_end(ldns_buffer *buffer);
uint8_t * ldns_buffer_current(ldns_buffer *buffer);

DESCRIPTION

ldns_buffer_limit() returns the maximum size of the buffer \param[in] buffer
 
Returns the size
ldns_buffer_set_limit() changes the buffer's limit. If the buffer's position is greater than the new limit the position is set to the limit.
 
buffer: the buffer
 
limit: the new limit
ldns_buffer_capacity() returns the number of bytes the buffer can hold.
 
buffer: the buffer
 
Returns the number of bytes
ldns_buffer_set_capacity() changes the buffer's capacity. The data is reallocated so any pointers to the data may become invalid. The buffer's limit is set to the buffer's new capacity.
 
buffer: the buffer
 
capacity: the capacity to use
 
Returns whether this failed or succeeded
ldns_buffer_reserve() ensures BUFFER can contain at least AMOUNT more bytes. The buffer's capacity is increased if necessary using buffer_set_capacity().
The buffer's limit is always set to the (possibly increased) capacity.
 
buffer: the buffer
 
amount: amount to use
 
Returns whether this failed or succeeded
ldns_buffer_at() returns a pointer to the data at the indicated position.
 
buffer: the buffer
 
at: position
 
Returns the pointer to the data
ldns_buffer_begin() returns a pointer to the beginning of the buffer (the data at position 0).
 
buffer: the buffer
 
Returns the pointer
ldns_buffer_end() returns a pointer to the end of the buffer (the data at the buffer's limit).
 
buffer: the buffer
 
Returns the pointer
ldns_buffer_current() returns a pointer to the data at the buffer's current position.
 
buffer: the buffer
 
Returns the pointer
