NAME
ne_buffer_clear, ne_buffer_grow, ne_buffer_altered - general purpose of group of functions
SYNOPSIS
#include <ne_string.h>
void ne_buffer_clear(ne_buffer *buf);
void ne_buffer_altered(ne_buffer *buf);
void ne_buffer_grow(ne_buffer *buf, size_t size);
DESCRIPTION
The
ne_buffer_clear
function sets the string stored in
buf
to be the empty string ("").
The
ne_buffer_altered
function must be used after the string stored in the buffer
buf
is modified by directly rather than using
ne_buffer_append,
ne_buffer_zappend
or
ne_buffer_concat.
The
ne_buffer_grow
function ensures that at least
size
bytes are allocated for the string; this can be used if a large amount of data is going to be appended to the buffer and may result in more efficient memory allocation.
