	Returns the number of bytes of data in the view.

Detailed Description

An immutable object that encapsulates a pointer to a constant contiguous block of memory representing arbitrary binary data and a count of the number of bytes of data.

DataView does not perform any allocations; it contains a pointer to an existing block of memory whose lifetime must supersede that of the DataView.

Constructor & Destructor Documentation

DataView() [1/3]

Bond::DataView::DataView ( )

inline

Constructs an empty DataView. After construction, GetData() returns nullptr and GetLength() returns 0.

DataView() [2/3]

Bond::DataView::DataView ( const void * data, size_t length )

inline

Constructs a DataView over the given pointer to a block of memory.

Parameters

data	The pointer to a block of memory over which the view is created.
length	The number of bytes of data.

DataView() [3/3]

Bond::DataView::DataView ( const DataView & other )

default

Member Function Documentation

GetData()

const void * Bond::DataView::GetData ( ) const

inline

Returns the pointer to the block of memory over which the view has been created.

GetLength()

size_t Bond::DataView::GetLength ( ) const

inline

Returns the number of bytes of data in the view.

operator==()

bool Bond::DataView::operator== ( const DataView & other ) const

inline

Returns whether this DataView points to the same number of bytes at the same memory address as another DataView.

Parameters

other

The DataView against which this one is compared.
