ldns_buffer* ldns_buffer_new(size_t capacity);

void* ldns_buffer_export(ldns_buffer *buffer);

DESCRIPTION

ldns_buffer_new()

creates a new buffer with the specified capacity.

.br capacity: the size (in bytes) to allocate for the buffer .br Returns the created buffer

ldns_buffer_new_frm_data()

creates a buffer with the specified data. The data IS copied and MEMORY allocations are done. The buffer is not fixed and can be resized using buffer_reserve().

.br buffer: pointer to the buffer to put the data in .br data: the data to encapsulate in the buffer .br size: the size of the data

ldns_buffer_clear()

clears the buffer and make it ready for writing. The buffer's limit is set to the capacity and the position is set to 0. .br buffer: the buffer to clear

ldns_buffer_printf()

prints to the buffer, increasing the capacity if required using buffer_reserve(). The buffer's position is set to the terminating '\\0' Returns the number of characters written (not including the terminating '\\0') or -1 on failure.

ldns_buffer_free()

frees the buffer. .br *buffer: the buffer to be freed .br Returns void

ldns_buffer_export()

Makes the buffer fixed and returns a pointer to the data. The caller is responsible for free'ing the result. .br *buffer: the buffer to be exported .br Returns void
