Buffer

Buffer class

Contains methods that manipulate raw byte arrays. This is a static type with no instance services. You should never create instances of it by any means.

Methods

MethodDescription
static void BlockCopy(const uint8_t *, int, uint8_t *, int, int)Copies a specified number of bytes from source buffer to destination buffer.

static void BlockCopy(const System::Details::StackArray<TSrc, NS>&, int, const SharedPtr<Array<TDst>>&, int, int)Interprets two specified typed arrays as raw arrays of bytes and copies data from one of them to another.
static int ByteLength(const SharedPtr<Array<T>>&)Determines the number of bytes occupied by all elements of the specified array.
static int ByteLength(const System::Details::ArrayView<T>&)Determines the number of bytes occupied by all elements of the specified array.
static int ByteLength(const System::Details::StackArray<T, N>&)Determines the number of bytes occupied by all elements of the specified array.
static uint8_t GetByte(const SharedPtr<Array<T>>&, int)Interprets the specified typed array as a raw byte array and retrieves the byte value at specified byte offset.
static uint8_t GetByte(const System::Details::ArrayView<T>&, int)Interprets the specified typed array as a raw byte array and retrieves the byte value at specified byte offset.
static uint8_t GetByte(const System::Details::StackArray<T, N>&, int)Interprets the specified typed array as a raw byte array and retrieves the byte value at specified byte offset.
static void SetByte(const SharedPtr<Array<T>>&, int, uint8_t)Interprets the specified typed array as a raw byte array and sets the specified byte value at specified byte offset.
static void SetByte(const System::Details::ArrayView<T>&, int, uint8_t)Interprets the specified typed array as a raw byte array and sets the specified byte value at specified byte offset.
static void SetByte(const System::Details::StackArray<T, N>&, int, uint8_t)Interprets the specified typed array as a raw byte array and sets the specified byte value at specified byte offset.

  }

  // Print the array items.

  // Create an array that contains a part of the first one.
  auto second = MakeObject<Array<uint8_t>>(SIZE / 2);
  Buffer::BlockCopy(first, SIZE / 2, second, 0, SIZE / 2);

  // Print the items of the second array.
  Print(second, SIZE / 2);

  // Set the value of the item at index 0 and print the array items.
  Buffer::SetByte(second, 0, 128);
  Print(second, SIZE / 2);

  return 0;
