NAME

6       Clownfish::ByteBuf - Growable buffer holding arbitrary bytes.
7

SYNOPSIS

9           my $buf = Clownfish::ByteBuf->new($byte_string);
10           my $byte_string = $buf->to_perl;
11

DESCRIPTION

CONSTRUCTORS
14   new
15           my $buf = Clownfish::ByteBuf->new($byte_string);
16
17       Create a ByteBuf containing the passed-in bytes.
18

METHODS
20   set_size
21           $byte_buf->set_size($size);
22
23       Resize the ByteBuf to "size".  If greater than the objectXs capacity,
24       throws an error.
25
26   get_size
27           my $int = $byte_buf->get_size();
28
29       Return the size of the ByteBuf in bytes.
30
31   get_capacity
32           my $int = $byte_buf->get_capacity();
33
34       Return the number of bytes in the ByteBufXs allocation.
35
36   cat
37           $byte_buf->cat($blob);
38
39       Concatenate the contents of Blob "blob" onto the end of the original
40       ByteBuf. Allocate more memory as needed.
41
42   yield_blob
43           my $blob = $byte_buf->yield_blob();
44
45       Return the content of the ByteBuf as Blob and clear the ByteBuf.
46
47   utf8_to_string
48           my $string = $byte_buf->utf8_to_string();
49
50       Return a String which holds a copy of the UTF-8 character data in the
51       ByteBuf after checking for validity.
52
53   trusted_utf8_to_string
54           my $string = $byte_buf->trusted_utf8_to_string();
55
56       Return a String which holds a copy of the UTF-8 character data in the
57       ByteBuf, skipping validity checks.
58
59   compare_to
60           my $int = $byte_buf->compare_to($other);
61
62       Indicate whether one ByteBuf is less than, equal to, or greater than
63       another.  The byte contents of the ByteBufs are compared
64       lexicographically.  Throws an exception if "other" is not a ByteBuf.
65
66       Returns: 0 if the ByteBufs are equal, a negative number if "self" is
67       less than "other", and a positive number if "self" is greater than
68       "other".
69
70   clone
71           my $result = $byte_buf->clone();
72
73       Return a clone of the object.
74
