Function Documentation

gate_util_buffer_load()

GATE_CORE_API gate_result_t gate_util_buffer_load	(	char const **	ptrbuffer,
		gate_size_t *	ptrbuffersize,
		gate_stream_t *	srcstream,
		gate_memstream_t **	membuffer )

Deduces a content pointer and length from a source stream and optionally allocates a memorystream.

An input memstream or stringstream will return their contents directly. Other streams are transferred into a new allocated memstream to access content pointers

Parameters

[out]	ptrbuffer	pointer to char-pointer that is filled pointer to begin of content
[out]	ptrbuffersize	pointer to size that is filled with length of source stream
[in]	srcstream	input stream that's content is directly accessed or transferred
[in,out]	membuffer	pointer to optionally created memstream that receives transferred data from srcstream

Returns

GATE_RESULT_* value
